AGAINST ME! - White Crosses lyrics

<b>White Crosses</b> by <i>Against Me!</i><br /> wake up in the morning and I drink from the fountain.<br />

I wake up in the morning with the same unanswered questions.<br />

I don't know what's going to cure my unsettled stomach.<br />

Street kids collect spare change in a conch shell on the side walk; <br />

Their teeth are yellow, their hair is tangled.<br />

Their minds are vapid and they laugh wild in their depravity.<br />

<br />

I'll make my way back home to you, head north on San Marco Avenue.<br />

White crosses on the church lawn, I want to smash them all.<br />

I want to smash them all.<br />

<br />

Pony tails swinging back and forth behind beach blonde college girls out for a jog.<br />

Saint Augustine, shine your light down on me! <br />

Pop hits from the 90's echo out of tourist filled bars.<br />

I am met with arms crossed under dirty looks, I am treated like a common thief.<br />

<br />

I'll make my way back home to you, head north on San Marco Avenue.<br />

White crosses on the church lawn, I want to smash them all.<br />

I want to smash them all.<br />

<br />

Eaves-dropping in on conversation, I wander aimless leering at strangers.<br />

Strung out on the amphetamines that you gave to me.<br />

Eye-balled with suspicion by a pencil skirt in high heels, <br />

You realize that you're talking to yourself.<br />

Cannon fire explodes out over the bay.<br />

<br />

I'll make my way back home to you, head north on San Marco Avenue.<br />

White crosses on the church lawn, I want to smash them all.<br />

Looking for context and perspective, looking for some kind of distraction.<br />

White crosses on the church lawn, I want to smash them all.<br />

I want to smash them all.
