Peter Gabriel - Slowburn слова песни
We`re character actors from the Tower of BabelBewildered, burned out hardly ableTo sit astride the high wire cableIt`s hard to balance, a little unstable.Through broken eyes and contact lenses Watched you draw your future tensesSee kisses of flame blow out of your lipsYou`re back telling me your Apocalypse.Don`t get me wrong, I`ll be strongWhen the slowburn sunset come alongYou`ve gotta stay the nightI gotta think that you might.We`ve tried a handful of bills and a handful of pillsWe`ve tried making movies from a volume of stills[But] the words fell like hailstones,bouncing at our feet,Covering our feelings with a frozen sheet.A chance to move, I take a shotI get cold - you get hotWe look outside, lyin` awakeSee birds breaking surface on a silent lake.But don`t get me wrong, I`ll be strongWhen I`m back on the Isle of AvalonDont get me wrong, I`ll be strongWhen the slow burn sunset come alongYou`ve got to stay the nightI`ve got to think that you might.Don`t try make it easy, it`ll cut you down to sizeDarlin` we`ve got to trust in somethingWe`re shooting down our skiesshooting down our skies
