Concrete Cowboys: MUSIC

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)

This one appeared on one of my solo albums from when I lived in Chicago a few years ago, and I buried it at the end of the album, figuring that it was so slow and melancholy that no one would really want to hear it.
Then I gave Chad a bunch of songs I thought he might want to sing, and this wasn't one of them. He picked it off of my Myspace page and said "We have to do this."
I said, "Really? Okayyyyy..."
Shows what I've got to think with.
He sings the heck out of it, though, every time we play it.
-T.D.

If you look for me tomorrow, I will still be here

Even though I have the look of one who could be swallowed by his fear

Even misery is not enough for me to disappear


If love was only pain, then I would follow you down into that lonely, hollow place

And we would shutter all the daylight, and just give in to the chase

But even misery is not enough for me to smother grace


Chorus:

If you look for me don’t be fooled by what you find

I may be on my knees, because I’m not the runnin’ kind

On those lonely days when you’ve tried everything you know

You look inside for places even misery can’t go


If it’s cloudy now, and precious little sun, well I’ve still got a job to do

I believe you make your own reasons, and my reason is just to make it through

‘Cause even misery, that’s enough for me if it’s true

And it never lasts, nothing ever lasts

Even misery

Even misery will pass
