about
Holden's Song
lyrics
Lyrics:
Black is black, in the dead of night,
I’m driving off – that was my last fight.
I can’t win, ‘cause if I win I lose,
no there aint no trophy for loving you.
Now I’m tired of hearing, ‘bout your lucky friends,
and their mighty and moral, and wealthy men,
and what a sinfully sorrowful one I am…
I know you believe it by the look in your eyes,
I am the Holden Caulfield of alibis, I am,
Holden Caulfield.
You killed my spirit, screaming your demands,
you’ve got this God-like vision, of some perfect man.
I did my best to please you, and I loved you so,
and still despite it all, I just want you to know…
That I’m tired of hearing ‘bout your lucky friends,
And their mighty and moral, and wealthy men,
And what a sinfully sorrowful one I am…
I know you believe it by the look in your eyes,
I am the Holden Caulfield of alibis, I am,
Holden Caulfield.
