    COLOSSUS OF ROADS
    (written by Alynda Segarra)
    Hold my head like a live wire,
    Duck quick now I hear gunfire.
    Caught somewhere in the space between
    Do you love me and do you love me?
    Everything is advancing,
    I love to see you out dancing.
    There's women up in the mountains,
    We could be up there if we could get up there.
    Say goodbye to America,
    I wanna see it dissolve.
    I can be your poster boy for the great American fall.
    Now I'm out and I'm prowling,
    You make me wanna start growling.
    You will live forever as this bombshell
    In my mind.
    I know that it's dangerous,
    But I wanna see you undress.
    Wrap you up in the bomb shelter
    Of my feather bed.
    Eileen, I must be living twice.
    Colossus of roads, Buz blur in the night.
    Cowboy hat and a cigarette,
    Grease marker in my leather vest.
    Let's go paint the oil cans,
    Write our names on a grain of sand.
    No one will remember us,
    Like I will remember us.
    Meet me down in the Castro,
    We'll pretend it's 1985.
    Before we were a twinkle,
    In our great grandfather's eyes.
    Children forever!
    In the end
    Of the night, baby
    Of the night.
    In the night, baby
    In the night.

    Great song with killer lyrics. As a person who is quite a bit older, I would have to say that you may already have it figured out and this shit ain't going to last forever. Just make the music as long as you have something to say. Great job!!!

    Amazing. 😮 This is the first I've ever heard of you guys. I love the familiar sound, and the lyrics. You should do a duet with John K Samson from The Weakerthans
