Remember Lyrics & Chords By Mark Eitzel

remember
what made you hold on
you were the rock
the whole mountain balanced on
remember
carol doda's flashing lights bourbon and coke till it was time to fuck or fight
now I got
your old tape machine
that kept you high
on the beam
remember
you knew what was right but never wrong
a crazy hope
my life depended on
remember
when you loved it was always
like a queen dismiss
hearts that were phonies
now I got
your old tape machine
that kept you high
up on the beam
an 8 year old heart
with a heartless dream
an 8 year old heart
with a heartless dream
remember
the bums used to call your name
you can feel the sun
even from the palest flame
so beautiful and so world weary
i met he was just nineteen
around him I just felt so dreary
he was just a living dream
once I said once he was far too Bowie
he said oh baby your so tired
he always had a better story
but you know he was always wired
Ronald Koal was a rock star
in 81 he was the king
Ronald Koal was a rock star
In Columbus he was the thing
a nervous angel inside him waiting
and saw the world through its eyes
saw the world is not worth hating
all it offers are goodbyes
