Harold Bloom - Cold War Kids

When you wake, levitate

Ideas pouring out

Then you set out to make

Something great

Nothing comes out

Are you quick on your feet?

It’s time to dig deep

So don’t lift your heroes up so high

That you can’t touch

Don’t let your innocence go dry before the flood

Guardians at the gate let you in

Into their mansions

I’m the acid head homeless man who demands an explanation

Can you be wise if you never leave the room?

There will always be another Harold Bloom

To criticize your every move

So don’t lift your heroes up so high

That you can’t touch

Don’t let your innocence go dry before the flood

Don’t lift your heroes up so high

That you can’t touch

Don’t let your innocence go dry before the flood
