Tony Lucca - Melancholy Collar Lyrics
Took that melancholy collar off my throat. Took some time to fix this hole here At the bottom of my boat. Still sailing through these stormy seas I glorify my tragedies And add it to the love song I just wrote. Bittersweet this self pity of mine. I try so hard to shake it Still I’m clinging to it all the time. That which doesn't kill me Maybe someday might fulfill me. For now it's just the pain I seem to find. Everyday I tell myself I’m sane Like a water color painter painting in the rain. Everyday she flows right through my veins And my song remains the same. Find it hard to look most people in the eye Trying to be that simple, subtle, sentimental kind of guy. I make a good impression Save my constant coy confession. Self-deprecation rarely tells a lie. Everyday I tell myself I’m sane Like a firefly dancer dancing in the rain. Everyday she flows right through my veins And my song remains the same. Now just once I’d like to see the other side. And find out why I feel this need to constantly try to hide. Still I’ve gotta make it home and realize that I’m alone, Cook myself a great big plate of pride. Everyday I tell myself I’m sane Like a water color painter painting in the rain. Everyday she flows right through my veins And my song remains the same.Hey now every dayLike a watercolor painter in the rainThere she goes flowin' through my veinsAnd my song remains the sameSaid my song remains the same nowYeah and I’ve got no one to blameWhy my songs be soundin' all the sameI don't know
