about

A dark, heart-wrenching ballad of alienation delivered in a pinched twangy drawl. Strings bend to the point of breaking over top Doug Pettibone’s (Lucinda Williams) apocalyptic distorted guitar, accordion, harmonica and upright bass while Stephen Hodges’ (Tom Waits) drums teeter on the edge...Nick Urata (Devotchka) sings harmony...Sparklehorse meets Ryan Adams...

lyrics

blackguard

sheets of rain are falling
in the streets like broken glass
and you’re alone again
far from home my friend

blackguard, they treat me like a blackguard
i’m trying but it’s so hard
to stand up straight
and the sun never shines here
i feel i’m living in a grave

sheets of rain are falling
in the streets like broken glass
and you’re alone again
far from home my friend

no one seems to hear you when you call
no one seems to hear you when you call
no one ever hears you when you call

sheets of rain are falling
in the streets like broken glass
and you’re alone again
far from home my friend
my friend
