Expensive Lessons
 
The music behind this can be heard (without lyrics, as we're just getting into dabbling with vocals) here: MySpace.com - Sunny Bonos - Isla Vista, California - Garage / Garage / Garage - www.myspace.com/sunnybonos

its called "Wheres the bono show?" on there though. Its also not structured correctly in that recording, but hopefully you can put it together :)


Dead man sleeping on the side of the road
Blood drips down to the tip of his nose
sitting in his seat,
wrapped around a tree,
Another old friend, another deceased.

I can see him there whenever I drive by
He looks right at me with this big ol' smile
And I want to believe
He's just haunting me,
But its not him its just a memory

CHORUS:
If I could only
change a moment
I'd be happy and
He'd be home and I
wish the world was
forgiving but
wishful thinkings a
fallacy I just
Wish these lessons weren't
so expensive

Newspaper headline reads "Teen OD"
"A young man was found dead at just 18.
Pills of methadone
found in the home
point to an accidental overdose."

I can see him there whenever I get high
He's got a bloated face, two blood shot eyes
layin on the floor
A f*ckin scene of horror
So I close my eyes as I take some more

If I could only
change a moment
I'd be happy and
He'd be home and I
wish the world was
forgiving but
wishful thinkings a
fallacy but
If I could only
change a moment
I'd be happy and
He'd be home and I
wish the world was
forgiving but
wishful thinkings a
fallacy I just
Wish these lessons weren't
so expensive, I
Wish these lessons weren't
So expensive, I
Wish these lessons weren't
So expensive

the word Fallacy seems really out of place. But I love your sound.
