P. Ochs (The Death Of A Rebel) - Hesitation Wounds

You were a fan of the rebels

A Marlon Brando and James Deen kinda man

But it was Seeger and it was Guthrie

That taught you how to take a stand

You up and moved from ohio

New York was the only place

You moved in with Bobby Dylan

writing songs at an incredible pace

Now youre getting the hang of it

Singing songs for who needed a voice

Speaking out where it was needed

For anyone without a choice

A song for the draft dodgers

Vietnam was taking names

So you built the tallest soap box

A fought to make to a change

You let dylan get in your head

Called you a coward for not searching witihin

All you wanted was to be famous

To be the hero that saved us

But when the kennedys died and we got Nixon

California was calling and your depression set in

It was time to get away, but you got attached while you traveled abroad

You lost the voice this world needed, or at least thats what you thought

You started calling yourself John bustler Train, said phil ochs had died,

you’d gone insane

all you wanted was to be famous

The hero hung himself and no one saved us.
