Coma kid
Tell me how you come to follow you around where ever you go
Said I don't go, where I'm supposed go
And I don't go, really anywhere you know
Told me how hes driven by a curse, 'til he kicked out into reverse
Said I don't go, where I'm supposed to go
And I don't go, really anywhere you know
I made up my mind, and I don't mind sayin so
I went to meet you at central square
When I couldn't find you there,
I went walking around the city some more
People watching with a cold blank stare
And I saw your face, in everyone I swear
Seems like I never get your kick quite right
I was walking slow to a dirty dive
I'm so sick and tired of trying to change your mind
When it's so easy to disconnect mine
High times
High times
High times, yea I feel fine
High times
High times
High times, man I feel fine
Don't pick me up I'm fine right where I am
I don't go, where I'm supposed go
Where I'm supposed to go
Tell me how you come to follow you around where ever you go
Said I don't go, where I'm supposed go
And I don't go, really anywhere you know
Told me how hes driven by a curse, 'til he kicked out into reverse
Said I don't go, where I'm supposed to go
And I don't go, really anywhere you know
I made up my mind, and I don't mind sayin so
I went to meet you at central square
When I couldn't find you there,
I went walking around the city some more
People watching with a cold blank stare
And I saw your face, in everyone I swear
Seems like I never get your kick quite right

Don't pick me up I'm fine right where I am
I don't go, where I'm supposed go
Where I'm supposed to go

Yeesh, not my cup of tea. I don't know what it is about me and this guy's music, but I just can't get myself to like almost any of his songs (there are just two or three exceptions)

Like his stuff, but haven't heard this track. Seems to be a dark glimpse into his tragically short life.

I mostly missed out on Elliott Smith while he was still alive. A shame, because I've enjoyed every song of his I've ever heard.
Huge ES fan - he has so many great tracks, glad to see this addition to RP - thanks Bill! His musical background is interesting - worth looking up if you have interest - from punk bands to this.
