Broken State Video (MV)

Rather be thrown into a shallow grave
Than give my heart to a broken state
It's cruel and usual

But you won't find me in misery
Unlike Biloxi in 1953
I'm blue more than red renewed

Poplar trees along the Tallahatchie
Watch the river rise and break levees

I see me coming, see me coming
Like some real bad news
Free to speak free to flee
Never free to choose

Always running always running
Away from the news
Smile wave be afraid
Of those sidewalk cues

You've got to get away
Get away now

Whether it's in Bernal Heights
Or the honey in Money
Making Crow Jane fly
It's cruel and unusual

I see me coming, see me coming
Like some real bad news
Free to speak free to flee
Never free to choose

Always running always running
Away from the news
Smile wave be afraid
Of those sidewalk cues
