Elliott Smith Bled White Lyrics

Bled White Lyrics

i`m a color reporter
but the city`s been bled white
and the doctor orders drinks all night to take away this curse
but it makes me feel much worse
bled white
so i wait for the f-train
and connect through a friend of mine
to a yesterdaydream
`cos i`ll have to be high to drag the sunset down
and paint this paling town
bled white
so here he comes with the blank expression
especially for me `cos he knows i feel the same
`cos happy and sad come in quick succession
i`m never going to become what you became
don`t you dare disturb me
while i`m balancing my past
`cos you can`t help or hurt me
like it already has
i may not seem quite right
but i`m not f**ked, no quite
bled white
bled white
