Roll On Lyrics

Cover art for Roll On lyrics by Thea Gilmore

Thea is the greatest poet of our time.

Tin-pot & infidel in the first verse explain her unimportance & lack of religion/belief/belonging. That sets up the rest of the song that describes how she is rolling through life with no purpose or direction. Lots of references to self-destruction, drugs, depression, all very dark.

Tongue, body, soul aren’t worth much. Maybe a glimmer of hope that they’ll be bought back someday but until then, just roll on through the depression. Go through the motions until then.
