ted leo - counting down the hours lyrics

Loading...

innocence, it don’t come easy, in a sense, it never will
accidents mean no one’s guilty, ignorance means someone’s k!lled
so i asked our mr. mellor how to get to where one’s going
and he points to his survival and he points me down the road

and i go on, wondering if i’ve got a soul
and counting down the hours ’til it goes

on a dark, wet night in april, on a street in jersey where
i went looking for some writing that i knew would not be there
and a punter from the pelhams and the police in the rain
were concerned more with a car than with the fact the light had changed

but after listening all morning as i drove down 95
to a story of detainees who were barely kept alive
i could deal with trying to process pigeons acting like they’re doves
but not with interference from the power lines above

and i go on, wondering if i’ve got a soul
and counting down the hours ’til it goes

oh, precautions, yes, precautions
but if you’re playing with a gun you could k!ll someone
and in the dark it’s hard to know a friend
but i’m not angry, i won’t be forever angry

as i’m walking toward tomorrow with a rifle in my hand
and i’m thinking about new england but i’m missing old j-pan
and a mountain in california where a spring runs hot and cold
and if i told you i felt ageless, would you tell me i’m not old?

and i go on, wondering if i’ve got a soul
and counting down the hours ’til it goes
