Alejandro Escovedo Dear Head On The Wall
Dear head on the wall
Look until
You're too simple
And the softness
Of knowing hurts
And the softness
Of knowing hurts
Dear head on the wall
Afraid
To mention the deaths
That I can't stuff
Into my mouth
That I can't stuff
Into my mouth
All the longing that is
A pity pretty pin
A pity pretty pin
And the sadness will come
When there is no one
Dear head on the wall
Forget what we already know
Hang a picture of your heart
Bandaged in surgeon's bowl
Opened up to it all
A pity pretty pin
A pity pretty pin
