Soliloquy   Year: 2006 | Run Time: 3:58

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI)

one to get my tongue loose and
two for a broken heart
three for all of that wreckage
that we left in the dark so

one more yeah the neon's getting fuzzy
two hey pal can you help me find my keys
three if you could point me in the right direction
well i might get home again

and i'll tell you frankly what i think about it
from this bully pulpit barstool
everybody's nodding but nobody's listening
to to this fool

fumbling for some loose pocket change
to spend at a pay phone in the rain
to say i'm sorry a thousand times again

yeah and your heart kid seem to be open
but 'round here tonight it's closing time
and that lame ass way you have of coping
you can read between the lines

there is a very old saying
known by every boxer in the ring
you tell yourself when you're cut and bleeding
you don't feel a thing

Did You Know?

Of this song, Bill says: "(This) is one of the coolest lyric items I feel I've done in a spell - of course that's crass self-promotion... but I believe ya' won't be disappointed." The title of this song has at times appeared as "Soliloquy (for Neil Young)."

Appeared On…
