Lester Walker wasn't a great talker
He went to parties but always stood along
People amused him, he was always looking on
But now our Lester Walker's gone
Bus rides, highways, looking for a new place
Found a new space and called it home
Seen on beaches making castles in the sand
Being alone was all he'd ever known
Well he's gone
Our Lester's gone from our home
That's what his mother cries
He doesn't even phone to tell her how he is
His room's the sa
Either Way Lyrics
There's a gun to your head will you pull or bleed And keep your view of your identity Tied with the need for a perpetual enemy Will you prove your manhood to me we'll see I wish you knew you didn't have to But either way I'll s

I know that he'll return some day, yeah she knows he will
Three months later in the park he meets a boy named Sid
They talk of all the things they'd do and all the things they did
Everyday they'd sit and meet and talk and watch and laugh
So close a bond yet so innocent, a love was formed
The two of them climb up a hill and in a warm embrace
They watch the sun slowly set behind a mountain range
All they needed was there and then nothing needed to b
Waiting for a Train Lyrics
All around the water tank Sleepin' in the rain A thousand miles away from home Waitin' for a train I walked up to a brake-man Just to give him a line of talk He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk. Well I ha

'Cause nothing can disturb the unconcerned
But then
In the morning paper Lester reads that Sid is dead
Got stabbed in the park late last night
Lester cries out in pain, runs to the window and releases himself
Now side by side they lie in the mortuary
Well he's gone
Our Lester's gone from our home
That's what his mother cried
The phone smashed on the floor she knows where her son lies
His room's the same as when he was just a little boy

Thirty Six Day Syndrome Lyrics
I miss you arms around me If I only knew this would be our last kiss My best was never good enough But, you were my favorite mistake And I wonder do you still think of me
rn to his mother's loving arms I miss you arms around me If I only knew this would be our last kiss My best was never good enough But, you were my favorite mistake And I wonder do you still think of me
Oh yes he's gong
Our Lester's gone from our home
She cries and cries
No he don't phone no more, she knows where he now lies
His room's the same aw when he was just a little boy
Never to return to his mother's loving arms
