Lyrics for Are You Out There by Dar Williams:
| | | Artist: | Dar Williams |
| | Album: | End Of The Summer | | Track: | Are You Out There | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 104 | | | | Lyrics: | "Perhaps I am a miscreation
No one knows the truth, there is no future here
And you're the
DJ speaks to my insomnia
And laughs at all I have to fear
Laughs at all I have to
fear
You always play the madmen poets
Vinyl vision grungy bands
You never know who's
still awake
You never know who understands and
Are you out there, can you hear
this?
Jimmy Olson, Johnny Memphis,
I was out here listening all the time
And though
the static walls surround me
You were out there and you found me
I was out here listening
all the time
Last night we drank in parking lots
And why do we drink? I guess we do
it 'cause
And when I turned your station on
You sounded more familiar than that party
was
You more familiar than that party
It's the first time I stayed up all night
It's
getting light, I hear the birds
I'm driving home on empty streets
I think I put my shirt
on backwards
Are you out there, can you hear this
Jimmy Olson, Johnny Memphis
I
was out here listening all the time
And though the static walls surround me
You were out
there and you found me
I was out here listening all the time
And what's the future,
who will choose it?
Politics of love and music
Underdogs who turn the tables
Indie
versus major labels
There's so much to see through
Like our parents do more drugs than we
do
Oh...
Corporate parents, corporate towns
I know every TV set that has them
lit
They preach that I should save the world
They pray that I won't do a better job of
it
Pray that I won't do a better job
So tonight I turned your station on just so I'd be
understood
Instead another voice said I was just too late
And just no
good...
Calling Olson, calling Memphis
I am calling, can you hear this?
I was
out here listening all the time
And I will write this down
and then I will not be alone
again, yeah
I was out here listening
Oh yeah, I was out here listening
Oh yeah, I am
out here listening all the time " | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
