The Man Condemned To Death |
Let’s dream together of a thug |
Big as universe |
Splashed with tattoos |
In purple reds and blues |
His kisses like a drug |
He’ll pass smoke on his breath |
A shared butt tasting of islands |
Of tobacco rum and death |
It breaks my heart to see them go |
My cell mates acting mean and hard |
The one we crowned with lilacs in the yard |
Who bought me bitter pain |
The other dead in Venice |
In a black gondola |
In the pouring Autumn rain |
Let your teeth slide their wolfish grin |
Into my blue veined jugular |
Pulsating like a star |
In the scarlet Spanish night |
Give me your hand and lead me where |
Black grasses kneel to morning dew |
As for me I’m bound to die there |
We hadn’t finish our Gitanes |
Bitter fags smoked to the last spark |
Of embers twinkling in the dark |
You faced a death sentence |
My best years spent inside a cell |
Back to the wall for stealing books |
That I’d committed to memory |
Let’s dream together of a thug |
Chased across town, his splashed tattoos |
Mapped in purples reds and blues |
His kisses like a smoky drug |
He’ll die with blond hair and not grey |
The two of us exchanging rings |
On his execution day |
Give me your hand and lead me where |
Black grasses kneel to morning dew |
Give me your hand and lead me where |
Black grasses kneel to morning dew |
As for me I’m bound to die there |
Let’s dream together of a thug |
Chased across town, his splashed tattoos |
Mapped in purples reds and blues |
His kisses like a smoky drug |
He’ll die with blond hair and not grey |
The two of us exchanging rings |
On his execution day |
