Seven Nations - Faithful Departed слова песни
Faithful Departed(Phil Chevron)This graveyard hides a million secretsAnd the trees know more than they can tellThe ghosts of the saints and scholars will haunt youIn heaven and in hellRattled by the glimmer man, the boogieman, holy manLivin` in the shadows and the shadows of a gunmanRattle like the coppers in your greasy tillRattle til the time stood stillLook over your shoulder; hear the school bell ringAnother day of made-to-measure historyI don`t care if your heroes have wingsYour terrible beauty`s been tornFaithful departedWe fickle heartedAs you are nowSo once were weFaithful departedWe the meek hearted With graces impartedBring flowers to theeThe girls in the kips proclaim their love for youWhen you stumbled in they knew you for a shilling or twoThey curse you on Sundays and holy daysWhen you all stayed awayYou slept there naked; light bulb hid your shameThe shadows on the wall they took all the blameThe sacred hearts picture compassion in his eyesDrowned out the river of sighsThe grass grow green on the brewery tonightNever come between the darkness and the lightThere is no pain that can`t be easedBy the devil`s holy water and the rosary beadsYou`re a history book, I never could writePoetry in paralysis too deep to reciteBless yourself and dress yourself; you`ve won the fightWe`re going to celebrate tonightWe`ll even climbed the pillar like we always meant toWatch the sun rise over the strandClose our eyes and we`ll pretendIt could somehow be the same againI`ll bury you upright so the sun doesn`t blind youYou won`t have to gaze at the rain and the starsSleep and dreams of chapels and barsAnd whiskey in the jarFaithful departedLook what you startedAn underdog`s woundsAren`t so easy to mendFaithful departedThere`s no broken heartedAnd no more distressIn your world without end
