Dead American Writers Lyrics

Cover art for Dead American Writers lyrics by Tired Pony

To me, it also seems to be about an aspiring writer who looks up to dead American writers. "I've been waiting for the spark myself" is like he is saying he is waiting for the spark of a really great idea. And the chourus is like he is saying that as a fan of the writers, he knows everything about them, every word of every book, everything about their lives, and the whole song shows this. I heard this song by chance on Waterloo Road, and I've downloaded it and had it on repeat since, it's absolutely beautiful. And it makes me want to read The Great Gatsy yet again =D
