lyrics

My mind is empty but it's hard to believe in all these histories abound, I'm not privy to them still
But I'm a soldier in the suburban army and I'll complete my orders just as easily as you

But I've been praying for a broken leg
Useless to my men letting down my brigade
Something honorable to make my escape
Tell my mother I was brave

Because I'm getting tired of the same conversations I had when I was younger, when the future still was dim
I dreamed of moments like the ones I'm having and I'd have to say I'd rather stick to dreaming just for now

But I've been praying for a broken leg
Useless to my men letting down my brigade
Something honorable to make my escape
Tell my mother I was brave

about

Josh Kaufman Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

"Sweet-sounding... with hints of alt-country, The Beatles and Elliott Smith. Kaufman is a thoughtful songwriter, and his moves are intentional; he has the pop form down without following it to a formulaic end" - Pittsburgh City Paper
