Alejandro Escovedo - Dear Head On The Wall Lyrics

Dear Head on the wall

Look until you're too simple

And the softness of knowing hurts

And the softness of knowing hurts



Dear Head on the wall

Afraid to mention the deaths

That I can't stuff into my mouth

That I can't stuff into my mouth

All the longing that is

A pity pretty pin

A pity pretty pin

And the sadness will come

When there is no one



Dear Head on the wall

Forget what we already know

Hang a picture of your heart

Bandaged in surgeon's bowl

Opened up to it all

A pity pretty pin

A pity pretty pin
