| Lined with roses at your feet, rusted robots fall asleep.
|
| Caroline, you cannot kill whatever ails you.
|
| Cyanide for starving eyes,
|
| Make that fortress in the sky shine with love, a lonely light,
|
| They just want to come down now.
|
| Do you look beneath the ice? |
| And do we age like summer wine?
|
| Of all these things, I’ll never know, I’ll never question.
|
| When all our friends are doing time, they sent me back on a rusted bike,
|
| and swore to me that Eleanor says «we're doing well».
|
| And I watched you fade away through the mountain mist
|
| And I thought I heard your name (God speed, my son)
|
| Cursing all that lives (never return).
|
| I don’t want your house, I don’t want your home.
|
| I just need your blood to heat my bones.
|
| I don’t want your house, I don’t want your home,
|
| My name is my own, my name is my own.
|
| I just need your blood to heat my bones,
|
| My name is my own, my name is my own.
|
| I just need your love to heat my home,
|
| I just need your love to heal my bones. |
