about

LENNY BRUCE: A tribute to a fallen brother and snatching triumph from tragedy—“No goodbyes and no more blows—these daytime highs and nighttime lows."

lyrics

"LENNY BRUCE" (Charlie's Song)
(Bello / Giubardo / Breivogel)

It’s hard to just stay breathing, as I search the world for words.
Trapped in some old U2 song where the message wasn’t learned
We blink and rub our eyes as 25 years has moved on.
We search the ether of our minds, just with you weren’t gone.

… and now our future looks at its past.

Daytime highs. Nighttime lows. As you pass through, please say ‘hello’.
No goodbyes and no more blows. These daytime highs and nighttime lows.

Add onto the counting years, looking down at the decks below.
We hold on to one million smiles and the thousand tears we’ve stowed.
And if I had my own damn world, you’d be my Lenny Bruce.
Just laughing and tripping away, chasing energy we had to lose.

… and now our future ignores the past.

Daytime highs. Nighttime lows. As you pass through, please say ‘hello’.
No goodbyes and no more blows. Move in and out, while we all slow.

I pray through any darkness, that it gets us through the night.
We live through all this madness, to make the wrongs seem right.
I don’t know what we don’t know, it’s in our history
We’ll find out when we get there, it’s the only thing we’ll see.

Hard to just stay breathing, how will we ever find the words.
Singing this old-new melody, without an act just to be heard.
And “what should be” well it never mattered, “what is” is never wrong
Truth-teller, friend—my brother—forever sing your song.

… and now our future becomes the past.

Daytime highs. Nighttime lows. As you pass through, please say ‘hello’.
No goodbyes and no more blows. These daytime highs and nighttime lows.
