Spare Me

from Ether / Spare Me by Spinster

lyrics

You see the truth is I used to laugh wild
I used to live hard with full commitment
Now I’m sleeping right through the daylight
Not much of anything can make me feel
And my poor mother, she must be worried
Concerned that I’m growing up so weird
And the truth is I don’t feel anything
But disappointment and regret

Oh spare me, spare me
Spare me the pain
Oh, spare me the trouble
Of losing it all again

You see the truth is that it’s hardest
Not at the bottom, but the whole way down
Because the truth is I worked to build it
To build it solid, keep us safe and sound
But, for convention and oxytocin
It was only strong for one good year
And the truth is I’m holding grudges
But I still miss them and I always will

Fortune and luck and working hard
Will lighten your load, give you success and joy
But for me, the other side of fortune is
To make all my dreams come true
Then take them all away from me

But the truth is I don’t need anything
But a pillow and a Coca-cola
And the truth is: give me America
Give me the open road
I’ll run away to New York City
To live my old dreams and for a new beginning
And the truth is I’ll make music anywhere
I’ll sing in tunnels and in open sky
