Dignity (CLOSURE/CONTINUATION.LIVE)

Lost boy, with the shreds of your shoes on your feet

And the schoolgirls call you a freak

Long gone, with all that you are in a bag

(Watching you fumble)

And a paper cup held in your hand

You have your pride, you're standing your own ground

Your dignity will never go, and your mind is pretty sound

You stare at the sun, you screw up your face and

Then you're done

Lost soul, camped at the side of the road

And the rain rises up through your toes

Brave man, with the egg running down past your nose

(The future was yours, how it came down to this no one knows)

All the troubles you've had no one knows

(Nobody knows)

You have your pride, you're standing your own ground

Your dignity will never go, and your mind is pretty sound

You stare at the sun, you screw up your face and

Then you're done

Outside when the traffic cowers

And the past begins to fade away

Tell yourself it's just what the thunder said

So pack up your belongings and stop talking with yourself

All the friends I had, I made you a list

Even if it's true they don't all exist

(All the friends I had, I made you a list

Even if it's true they don't all exist)

Slack jaw, will you tell me of all that you were?

And the promises you made to her?

Drink up, you can tell me of all that you've seen

While we wait for the light to turn green

You have your pride, you're standing your own ground

Your dignity will never go, and your mind is pretty sound

You stare at the sun, you screw up your face and

Then you're done
