Testo: Elliott Smith. New Moon. Either / Or.

You're strong, you're stubborn now
in an endless symbolic war
brave or bored, either/or

sometimes i ricochet from the past
and at times a future i?ve already had before
champion or chore, either/or.

i?ll write the pages you rip out
back in their places again
one day you?ll know what you?re talking about
i can hardly imagine, but until then i?ll be

filling in these blanks that you create
every time you win some petty score
posing as hardcore, oh yeah, either/or

look at the spin chief, battered and broken
clutching a plastic rose
we?re all in the downpour you carry around for
trashing a lifestyle you?ve never known

it?s a useful dream that makes
quite an entertaining show and not much more
up against and for, either/or
