Next Of Kin - Conor Oberst[00:00:01]
I saw a crash on the interstate[00:00:14]
It left a feeling I could not shake[00:00:17]
Just a name in a database[00:00:21]
Who must be notified[00:00:24]
It's not a phone call I want to make[00:00:28]
A stranger answers I hesitate[00:00:31]
Got some bad news that couldn't wait[00:00:35]
Are you sitting down?[00:00:39]
Her bathrobe hangs on the bedroom door[00:00:42]
Though she's been dead for a year or more[00:00:46]
He buried her by the sycamore[00:00:49]
So that he could keep her close[00:00:52]
It broke his heart and it made him old[00:00:57]
Tries to rebuild but it just erode[00:01:00]
People say that's the way it goes[00:01:04]
But he don't feel that way[00:01:08]
Get too drunk and you can't perform[00:01:26]
Something dies when a star is born[00:01:29]
I spread my anger like Agent Orange[00:01:33]
I was indiscriminate... yeah[00:01:36]
I met Lou Reed and Patti Smith[00:01:41]
It didn't make me feel different[00:01:44]
I guess I lost all my innocence[00:01:47]
Way too long ago[00:01:51]
She called my bluff and she won the fight[00:02:09]
I ran outside in the hot twilight[00:02:13]
I had a lighter that didn't light[00:02:17]
Though I know I shouldn't smoke[00:02:19]
I was gone, I was free to leave[00:02:24]
Walking fast down The Bowery[00:02:28]
Tears in my eyes so I couldn't see[00:02:32]
But I made my way back home[00:02:34]
