Ad Frank - Pillar In My Soul lyrics

Dawn on the windshields was damn near blinding The morning papers found me finding I love everyone I pity everyone At the after-hours party that came to no avail Despite the sweet elixirs that never fail to fail I love everyone I pity everyone It's a katzenjammer But there isn't any cause And there isn't any cure Just a whole new set of laws And a new chance Maybe a last chance To be a prodigal I believe in The dejected The exalted And the utterly expected Or the things that take control of you By creeping up and seizing you suddenly Asking for more and Settling for less Expecting the worst and Making the best And the pillar in my soul That keeps my loneliness From crushing me The walks of hope and the walks of shame And the drowsy morning kisses with no number or no name Tell me, I love everyone I pity everyone And the ghosts of the hookers drag the bones of all their dates Emancipated through the Chinatown gates I love everyone I pity everyone And the felons' mothers Thrust their fingers through the seams And tear their hearts apart, oh mothers Go to sleep and dream now Of sweet things Because they all seem So probable I believe in The irresolute The desolate And the dissolute And proactive pursuit or waiting Silently and motionless Making a guess that Proves incorrect and Taking the best of Whatever's left And the pillar in our souls That keeps our loneliness From crushing us I believe in Saying yes and Taking the best of Whatever's left And the pillar in my soul That keeps my loneliness From crushing me
