Lyrics   status: confirmed

Dead boy stares
Strange to meet you
Dead boy cares
So great to see you
Is it time to go
It's a place I know

I can't read yr mind
I can't find the time
I can't feel the thrill
I don't have the will

Dead boy dares
Believe in you
Dead boy stares
Afraid that you will see him
Is it time to go
Is it a place I know

I can't read yr mind
I can't find the time
I can't feel the thrill
I don't have the will

I love you metallic blue
I love you golden blue
I miss you shining all alone
I miss you, I don't know what to do

I don't glitter like the stars above
I don't glow like neon alone
Don't blush, it's just the wind outside
Don't rush to be by my side

First Known Performance: 03/10/04
Last Known Performance:  11/26/05

NOTES:

  • Working title: "Crosby"
  • A phenomenal piece that opened most of the 2004/2005 shows, providing the option of each member joining the stage/performance individually (Jim began the chiming guitar offstage, Steve introduced his percussion, etc). Lee plays organ and guitar on this track, and after initially playing both live, as well, he switched to just playing the organ live.
  • An instrumental demo of this song titled 'Crosby' was included on SY's web-only 'Mix Tape' volume #3.
  • This was performed acoustically at the 2004 Bridge Benefit. Lee got to play Neil Young's pump organ and Jim got to play Neil's grand piano.
  • A video for this track was created by Dave Markey.
