The church went down and it didn't go gently. The burning steeple fell right onto Main Street. The old stained glass exploded. Pieces of Jesus at my feet.
You can't tell the truth, not even to yourself. It hurts too much to admit that it's in there. You can lie and dissemble with anyone else. But I know you like I know myself.
You say that I'm. never to keen to. leave this place. . You say that. you never wanted. to hit me in the face. . More than right now. ever before. but can't you see that I'm only alone.
Sunday morning I'm confined. But the last time I could understand. What's left in me? I don't know. But I wanted to be there tonight. Holding on I fall.
Today the world is a top. Spinning on the devils fingers. Spinning on the devils fingers. Spinning on the devils fingers. . We've gotta use our hands.
Oh, the night (yes, the night). It comes crawlin' in.. It comes crawlin' in, oh it comes crawlin' in.. Well, the night (yes, the night). It comes crawlin' in..
Go down to the gallows at midnight,. With silk draped to cover your face.. Go down to the gallows, they'll soon take my life,. And lay your eyes over the place..
There was a black heart beatin' in a cowboy's chest. When the sun had cooked him through. And the tracks were tears on a cigarette. When the sky had opened up again.
You got to bury, bury, bury your dyin' mother.. Bury your dyin' mother in the ground, ground, ground.. Because one day (one day) one day (one day). One day she'll be singin' up in the sky, sky, sky..
Sing yourself to sleep. Because I don't know your name. To the ocean we will go. If the land won't stop us first. So kiss yourself for life. From the threats you can't bend.
You're soaking with. And I am bored as hell. You're not alone. You're not alone. So drink away your fears. Acknowledge them. And you only with them breathe.
Life's a nightmare and I can't stand it. Since you turned me lose. And you know without your loving. My life has no use. I know I made mistakes now baby.
A Fallen star Shoots across the sky. And A Woman With no family Wishing to die. A mother, Buries her new blonde son. And a father in his office holding a gun.
I've been jumping through red lights. I've been on your tail all night. Temperatures are all rising, baby, oh. Yesterdays on the horizon, baby, oh. . You are one mean human being.
I lost my British soul. Pulling out the corpse. Sheltering in the trenches again. Crying for remorse. I laid my arms down. Walked away in a trance. There's parts of me laid out.
You say you can tell the different parts of me,. one a falling bird, another a lonely child,. if it's gonna be you, my judge and my saviour,. bury me in rock, just like I told you,.
well the radio was blasting another day old tune. my mother left me for a war, for an old dragoon. the streets were burnt , no one cried, no one made a sound.
There's nothing in the bird that makes it sing. There's nothing in the sun who give it light. There's nothing like a ship to help me float. Or the docks that keep me awake a night.
Beyond this place beyond the cafes and the choirs. lies the death of me,. where the adults don't see, the boards start to creak. down this lonesome street,.
I walked home empty with a sultry dream. I tossed a coin onto the icy pond. I tripped and fell upon the icy curve. The road is short but the river's long.
