Elliott Smith - New Disaster lyrics
[Elliott Smith - New Disaster lyrics]
The ghost of your smile is always looking
For new bodies to haunt
And it's been here and disappeared
It's hanging around aloofly for a while
Gradually gone it's pleasing and freezing
Well, I wonder what it is you're after
Keeping company with this disaster
You looked all over town got turned around
To walk back through the mud
The kind you had left behind you
Everybody is the same in
This long no-win game where every new blood
Gets time to become resigned
Now I wonder what it is you're after
Keeping company with this disaster
Why you never tried to tame your master
You just blow through the coals
Blow through the coals
Blow through the coals
Until everyone knows that your smile
Is just a ghost
The ghost of your smile was seen
On a body in the park it's old news
You see that it's no use waiting to start
Waiting to light waiting until dark
I told you, man i told you
Well, I wonder what it is you're after
Keeping company with this disaster
Why you never tried to tame your master
For new bodies to haunt
And it's been here and disappeared
It's hanging around aloofly for a while
Gradually gone it's pleasing and freezing
Well, I wonder what it is you're after
Keeping company with this disaster
You looked all over town got turned around
To walk back through the mud
The kind you had left behind you
Everybody is the same in
This long no-win game where every new blood
Gets time to become resigned
Now I wonder what it is you're after
Keeping company with this disaster
Why you never tried to tame your master
You just blow through the coals
Blow through the coals
Blow through the coals
Until everyone knows that your smile
Is just a ghost
The ghost of your smile was seen
On a body in the park it's old news
You see that it's no use waiting to start
Waiting to light waiting until dark
I told you, man i told you
Well, I wonder what it is you're after
Keeping company with this disaster
Why you never tried to tame your master
