Rocky Votolato

Rocky Votolato (born March 8, 1977 in Dallas, Texas), is an American singer-songwriter. He was raised in a small town called Frost, roughly 50 miles south of Dallas, until the age of 13. After his parents were divorced, his mother remarried and moved the family to the Pacific Northwest in 1991, where he attended Inglemoor High School in Kenmore, Washington.[citation needed] Alienated by his southern roots, the isolation lead him to focusing all of his attention on learning to play guitar and writing songs. Inspired by seeing many punk shows including bands like Jawbreaker and Fugazi, he started several different musical projects while in high school. more »

The clouds are holding up the dawn 
They're stilts or crutches
I can't tell which one 
To keep the short days looking longer
Or to keep the sunlight from falling on broken legs 
But the
Night's disguise is wearing thin 
Caught me looking through
Your eyes 
No I'm not doing alright 
I'm just as stupid and
Desperate as I've always been 
All the uselessness I write
Just come at me with a knife 
Come cut this sickness from my

Mind 
Help me forget about a shattered lie 
Bleed my failure
Into something right 

The boss man said there's no more work
This winter 
So go on home now and check back in the spring
Some dreams turned out to be a nightmare that you can't afford

So it's coming in on a credit card 
Get yourself all prettied up
My love 
Come here close let me tie that ironed ribbon 

On the
Dress I bought you it's the perfect one 
For the perfect night
With the perfect woman 

But the night's disguise is wearing thin
