| Damien Jurado – Reel to Reel Lyrics | 13 years ago |

I think these are the correct lyrics (for the most part): You're a smooth talker with eyes like lightning. On the radio we will all sing like our mothers. Put away the hairbrush and name me off something you don't know. I read it in the tabloid at a truck stop in a thunderstorm. You're an escape artist in the bathroom mirror. And the autograph seekers you'd imagined outside the door: "Yes we'd love a statement. Is it true you're now escaping in your room? From the light out in the basement we knew that there'd be trouble coming soon." Intuition. Mathematics. Invisible audience. Ten hit records. Listen through your tin can as the rope cuts circulation to your tune. I fashioned myself after you from my suicidal-led proposal. The greatest songs I'll never hear from a band you started in your mind. Leave us hanging on your legend as your exit through the tape recorder, reel to reel. |
