Lou Reed, are you watching over me
Fumbling to find the right line?
I can strike up a tune
And make a melody move
But I can't do it quite like you
You're one of a kind
I want to see through your eyes
"I've been looking into lobotomy"
Making living easier on the mind
But do these dark moods and my bad attitude
Give me words that I sing back to you?
The suffering's cruel
The aesthetic is cool
All I've got out here
Are highways of billboards
Preaching life matters
Til you're born and breathe in the world
If I were a headline,
which photo would they use?
It's just something to skim over
Coffee and cartoons
Do you think that you'll come on home to me?
Or are you hostage to a chemical crook?
Ten years from now
The Velvet Underground
Could be taking a hologram bow
But it's just laser beams
If you're not here with me
