The The - The Mercy Beat слова песни

***************There`s a high wind blowin, & the stars are shining bright,Oh what a night, this is gonna be-- I think I`ll let the world sleep without me.I got one eye open, one eye closed.& my thin body`s trembling beneath the bedclothes,My hearts beatin` against the roof of my mouth --It`s almost time to get out of this house.I got one hand on the radio, one hand on the wheel,I got my right foot on the floorboard,-- & I`m preparing to kill or be killed.There`s a high wind blowin`, & the stars are shining bright.& the rain upon the tarmac, --helps me sail through the traffic lights,I`m heading down to the dock of the bay, --to feel the power of the waves,I`m gonna move up close to that wind,& wrestle with the thoughts solitude always brings.Y`see I`m stuck between hell & the deep blue sea,& I know that water`s sucked under better man than me,I was just another western guy, --with desires that couldn`t be satisfied,So one day, I asked the angels for inspiration, --but the devil bought me a drink,& he`s been buying them ever since,he`s had the liquor on my tongue --feel like the sea upon the sand,he`s had me signing confessions --from this shaking hand,he`s had me struggling to hang onto hope--Like a drunken sailor in a tugboatwith a bottle of vodka in my overcoat,& my dog eared bible lost--overboardY`see he tricked me into temptation,So I`ve tricked him into this confrontation,I never said I was the man I appeared to benot the flesh wrapped around the bones of necessity.Or the soul on fire--scribbling thoughts for posterity.I`m gonna have little lucifer, runnin` off to purgatory, --with his tail between his legs,I`m gonna teach him a lesson --he ain`t ever gonna forget.All the vultures & crows are fixin up some tombstonesbut they won`t be chewing the meat off my bones.There`s a high wind blowin` & the stars are shining bright.Me & him are gonna have a little knife fight, --in the bowels of the big city skyline,Oh this feelin` inside runs dark & deep --Tonight my hearts not thumping --A Mercy BeatI was just another western guy,with desires that couldn`t be--satisfied......
