Kevin Devine - I Don't Care About Your Band lyrics

I don't care about your band I thought I could; turns out I can't I mean no malice - I promise, man I just don't care about your band But I care that you're an honest guy An amba**ador for peace & light A struggler who forgives himself A human being, and nothing else See, I found out about your band Via blogosphere, via hidden hand You were DIY, you were test-tube made I wasn't biting either way But I care that you're a voice for change Who lives the things she sings onstage A struggler who forgives herself A human being, and nothing else In the middle We're feeling less-than Boxed up in riddles Self-conscious second guessing If you listen There's a lesson It's transcendent, if you listen I'd like to be a better guy No easy targets No cheap drive-bys But I'm a part-time monster who Contradicts himself I'm a human being And nothing else And I don't care about your band
