he's pleased to meet you underneath the horse
in the cathedral with the glass stained black
singing sweet high notes that echo back
to destroy their master
may be a long time til you get the call-up
but it's sure as fate and hard as your luck
no-one'll know where you are
it's just a brief smile crossing your face
running speed trials still standing in place
when the socket's not a shock enough
you little child what makes you think you're tough?
when all the people you think you're above
they all know what's the matter
you're such a pinball yeah you know it's true
there's always something you go back running to
to follow the path of no resistance
it's just a brief smile crossing your face
running speed trials standing in place
it's just a brief smile crossing your face
running speed trials all over the place
A compilation of songs recorded live for the 'Drinking From Puddles' radio show on KBOO in Portland, OR. Includes Elliott Smith's "Everybody Cares, Everybody Understands." Elliott Smith
in my opinion, this is one of the greatest pieces of art humanity has ever produced. an entirely amazing album through and through. is helping me through challenging times. an album full of hope just as much as it is full of sadness. zahra
