jesse r. berlin – the bitter tears of jesse r. berlin lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m a rose at the grave of the vulture that saved me
when i was a kid and it all seemed amazing
but when i look up close, he’s malicious and gross
up in smoke, set the whole thing ablaze

i was a fan first and what hurts is i still am
still getting chills from the filler and flimflam
but when the movie zooms out of teenagers’ rooms
it gets thinner and dimmer and d+mned

[chorus 1]
caroline, did you get my email yet?
did you read it and forget?
here in the valley of the shadow of debt

i’m benign, you can whip me all you want
just a dunghill dilettante
hear me sigh from versailles to vermont

[verse 2]
i’m a deuce on the face of the truce that erased me
see the look in their eye as they try to replace me
still the one thing i crave diving into my grave
is that meaningless, evil embrace

[chorus 2]
caroline, did you get my email yet?
did you read it and forget?
is that bridge burnt? boy, you bet!

but i won’t whine if i see you thursday night
at the overstock c+ckfight
wonder why we refuse to be right?

[outro (spoken by jrb)]
ambitions decay and our death becomes real
and it lurks in the things that we think that we’ve healed
so my heart starts to bloom, so my mind starts to peel
it’s not good, it’s not bad, it’s just life that’s congealed
but when heaven presented, i hemmed and i hawed
at the end of the line, i find out i’m a fraud
just like moss on a rock, i flake off with a prod
see, i cling to my singing to hide from my god
