After All (track 04 from the Katorz LP by Voivod )
Joey died and nothing has changed
The street corners are still the same
I guess he still lives in my head when it’s time to share the bread
I still got holes on my knees, but I won’t buy the figurine
It’s kind off sad to see you in a box, wrapped and sealed
Who cares after all about the rise and the fall?
It makes the papers for one day, but not for what you had to say
Who cares after all?
Another flyer on the wall
All the names have been washed out: all the ones we care about
Seen it
Been there
Done that
When I am mad—when I see red—I refer to what Iggy says:
“I want to find myself in you. You want to find yourself too.”
Who cares after all?
Win the race or drop the ball
If I make a silly face, is that really what it takes?
Who cares after all about the records on the wall?
The tattoos on your skin let you be the one you’ve never been
Seen it
Been there
Done that
