Jim Carroll - Still Life слова песни
By Jim Carroll and Lenny KayeI don`t believe in sinBut maybe I`ll beginA vagrant evil`s climbing up my skin The shadows from last weekAre dancing in the streetIn homage to the darkness closing inIt`s hard to say what`s different each new morningI need some clue to tell me when or whereBut it seems I must believeNight wears it on its sleeveA warning that the time`s come to prepare . . .I owe so much to someoneI`ve watched her teardrops fallLike wings that melted reaching for the sunI need her to be nearTo clarify the dangersI didn`t come this far to die with strangersI can`t explain exactly what I`m sayingBut you`re the only reason I still careBut things become so clearWhen the spider licks her tearsA warning that the time`s come to prepare . . .I beg you not to leave meWith these warnings in the air . . .I never thought I`d say itBut for once I`m truly scaredWe create every lieIn order to surviveTo mirror all the terror in our soulsWith nothing left to stealLies make our lives seem realIt slows down all the madness like a shieldI don`t know why I need to understand itI don`t know if there`s anyone who caresI don`t know how or whyIt could be something in the skyThat makes it seem it`s best to be prepared . . .I don`t know where it will beTwo by land . . . One by seaSleep with one eye openBe preparedThe spectres ride the stallions of my ruinThe shifting of my blood tell me it`s soon . . .I don`t know howOr why . . . it could beSomething in the skyThat makes it seem the time says to bewareLittle boy,Looking at the sky,Tell me what you see?Little boyLooking at the sky,Tell me what you see???
