Lyrics[edit | edit source]
You see those bullet holes in highway signs?
That was me
When you see a broken bottle of real fine wine
That was me
When a woman weeps at a window
Turns all shiny black widow
Think of me
Was done by me
Yes, siree
That was me
You'll feel me in the urban breeze
I'll be there when the moment's seized
I'm the saddened man that the ladies tease
Yeah, my darling, that is me
Oh yeah, it's still me
That was me
When you see a slowly spreading crack
That was me
And when nothing else is left intact
That was me
When you come across a burning shack
When you're following the bloody tracks
Think of me
'Cause that was me
Yes, siree
Think of me
You'll feel me in the urban breeze
I'll be there when the moment's seized
I'm the saddened man that the ladies tease
Yeah, my darling, that is me
Oh yeah, it's still me
That was me
My own life is a clutter of regrets
Way too big for the door
Can't get 'em out of this house yet
Only breaking down these walls
You'll feel me in the urban breeze
I'll be there when the moment's seized
I'm the saddened man that the ladies tease
Yeah, my darling, that is me
Oh yeah, it's still me
That was me
That was me
It's still me
Yeah, that was me
It's still me
Oh yeah, that was me
