When he plays the guitar He don't need to be witty. He takes all his sadness Makes it sound so pretty. People close their eyes when they listen. Suffer the modern world with him. He went to the doctor Who gave him a prescription. Gave him a prescription. He lost all of his friends Kept up his rhythm. Kept his rhythm. He picked up the guitar Tells it everything his tongue can't say. He picked up the guitar And he tells it everything his tongue can't say. When he plays the guitar He don't need to be witty. He takes all his sadness Makes it sound so pretty. People close their eyes when they listen. Suffer the modern world with him. He sees people walking by With their skateboards in their eyes And their clothes that say "We're not alone." He sees the history in their face, History that they can't erase. It's to these lines That he relates
