The Kid
The Kintners
In all my life
I’ve never been
Careless with a friend like
Believing you was a natural defense
I needed to make sense of this world.
Waiting for life to begin
Always preparing for the end
Seducing you
Was a matter of a smile
And you were the perfect escape
It wasn’t true
But it took me a while
Through glamour and guile
To look away
Waiting for life to begin
Always preparing for the end
I didn’t know I’s just a kid
I didn’t know I was just a kid
I can see how
We looked to the stars
Wasting our time in the shadows
We both know now
We took it too far
We were planning on different tomorrow’s
Repeat X2 (something fancy if ya want)
Waiting for life to begin
Always preparing for the end
I didn’t know I’s just a kid
I didn’t know I was just a kid

Hudson River Blues
Left my good intentions
Been thrust out of the state
I’ve come to find that home’s
A point in time and not a place
Settled west of the river
Looking for somewhere to hide
Everyone can see me
But no one looks me in the eye
Burnt out on the Hudson
I’m done facing all my fears
I’ve got all the freedom in the world
But it costs a lot up here
Snowed two weeks straight last winter
Advised to stay inside
My heart turned as cold as that river
Still haven’t thawed my mind
Memories serve as flights of fancy
At least they don’t take up my time
That’s all spent making money
But I can’t buy what I left behind
Burnt out on the Hudson
I’m done facing all my fears
I’ve got all the freedom in the world
But it costs a lot up here
Sold my soul for a shelter
Some might say that’s a mistake
No time left for the future
You can’t drink at your own wake
I remember why I came here
But it’s time to travel on
I’ve been moving around so quickly
I’ve forgotten where I belong
Burnt out on the Hudson
I’m done facing all my fears
I’ve got all the freedom in the world
But I’ve lost a lot up here
