Exquisite Corpse Lyrics - The Sky's Gone Out - Bauhaus

Life is but a dream 

Life is but a dream 

Life is but a dream 

Life is but a dream 

Life is but a dream 

Life is but a dream 

Life is but a dream 

Life is but a dream 

I make the air fall apart 

Around me 

Now as the petals are no more 

A corroding, shrinking stalk remains 

Bereft of his blooms 

And the ultimate cruelty of loves pinions 

Beset his appearance, beset his appearance 

No king could replenish his state 

Now browning, sinking, dying 

A thousand deaths 

A thousand deaths 

A thousand deaths 

Terry sat up and hugged 

The green army surplus bag 

Around his skinny waist 

It was cold and the person 

Beside him had faded badly 

Legs apart, his eyes lit up 

The skys gone out, the sky, the sky 

The skys gone out 

The skys gone out, the skys gone out 

The skys gone out, the skys gone out 

The skys gone out, the skys gone out 

The skys gone out, the skys gone out 

The skys gone out, the skys gone out 

The skys gone out, the skys gone out
