Even So

Lyrics

EVEN SO

GROWING UP THE SKY WAS ALWAYS BLUE
AND I WAS ALWAYS BLUE AND GREEN WITH ENVY
OF THE GIRLS WHO KNEW THE SECRET
I WAS ALWAYS MEANT FOR A DIFFERENT SCENE
ANOTHER TAKE
THIS COULDN’T BE THE MAIN EVENT
I WAS SENT HERE BY DIVINE MISTAKE

CHORUS:

BUT EVEN SO IT’S GOOD TO KNOW
THAT THERE MUST BE POETRY
IN THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY X 2

DRY WIND BRITTLE SOUL HOT SUN NEVER COLD

GROWING UP THE SKY WAS ALWAYS DRY
AND MY HEART WAS ALWAYS DRY
AND YEARNING FOR ACCEPTANCE
LIKE THE STORY OF THE DUCK
GROWING UP HE HAD NO LUCK
BUT HE KNEW HE NEEDED LOVE WITHOUT REPENTANCE

BUT EVEN SO IT’S GOOD TO KNOW
THAT THERE MUST BE POETRY
IN THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY X 2

BLOND BLUE BROWN DRY
BRITTLE WORDS THAT QUESTION WHY
OR JUST IMPRESSIONS AND AWARENESS
OF A WORLD OUTSIDE MY OWN
OUTSIDE MY OWN OUTSIDE MY OWN
THAT I CAN NEVER OWN
