Persona Non Grata

Lyrics

Getting dressed for a date
 Put on blue aftershave
 Wore a kilt like a Celt
 Hid the way that I felt
 Combat boots, fallen leaves
 West Village Halloween
 To a Bollywood song
 Taking shots 'til we're gone
 Unwelcome in the autumn
 Persona non grata
 I'm the last of the best
 I'm your thoughts in the swamp
 There's a playground of children
 In the shadows of buildings
 There's a line out the church
 Where your homelessness works
 Where the stain glass of crimson
 Meets Ezekiel's Visions
 Saw a valley of bones
 Where no man shall be saved
 And now you, you come to me asking that
 ♪
 And now you, you come to me and you're asking that
 Oh, how can we reconcile?
 ♪
 Left your innocence there
 In Tiananmen Square
 You were filled with despair
 Underfed and depressed
 Vacant lot where a prison stood
 God knows you never would
 Lie to yourself
 But you do every time
 Made a life of deception
 And passive aggression
 Going to scream when I sing
 Going to die in the rain
 Turn me on, you're a knockout
 Climb up on to my cloud
 Do your worst to me now
 Before I change my mind
 And now you, you want to be true to me once again
 And you want me to be true to you once again
 Oh yeah, you, you want to be true to me once again
 And you want me to be true to you once again
