Faithless ~ Killer's Lullaby
| I'm sittin' at a coffe table unable to see straight Watchin' parallel lines unwind and undulate Behind the rain-soaked window pane the scene's bleak Another train leaving home, concending defeat with a low moan Hangin' in a sy made of stone, everybody's leavin' home Called my man Jerome to come and meet me in the twilight zone Leave ya mobile phone at home and come alone I bouht him coffe an' a snack, settled back, started speakin He was tweakin' at the peak of his hat while I'm seekin' to discover what it takes to stay sober Not to cover my mistakes, try to maybe make sense f the eveidence, It's over She'd gone for good why should I lie Singin' a killer's lullaby Indentified by the dying ring of a goodbye The last thing ya hear before ya life disappear "Is it better when you see her?" Nah, it just gets worse like my stomach'll burst Feels like I been cursed with seven centuries Of bitter memories, Inadequacies of previous he's and she's I'm movin' round this old house for the last time Scene of my past crimes, been her for lifetimes Hearin' the chimes of that old clock that useta mock You got eternity for takin' stock, this place is like a padlock You look shocked, trust me. Nuthin' ever moves but the dust There's just us and I'm here to torment and tease An' that's how it was for centureis, me and my memories til you bought the keys, took a coupla Saturdays An; moved in runnin' from tragedies an' boozin' Seven hundred years since I came her you appear Same hair, same quizzical stare I couldn't get near and the sheer frustration Was more than I could bear, I was really cursed Thought I'd been through the worst part, That was just first part, just the start Everynight I'd be sittin' with dread pickin' my heart In case the man she been chasin' gets to first base An' I just can't escape. I'm in bad shape You makin' love to someone else is more than i can take So I make all the movement I can, to no avail Scream an' yell sinkin' deeper in my own personal hell I'm gettin' heated I'm sorry, have another coffee I needed to release my sparrow chest from just a piece Of this pressure, unless an' excape route is found I'm goin' down, underground into lifetaimes of pain It's absurd, the heaviest chain is contained in the sound of one word So I'm referred back to hell. Just as well i hate needles an' get twinges at the thought of syringes I move quick I wanna try my trick one last time you know it's possible to vaguely define my outline, when dust move and the sun shine So I try to change vibrate myself to near human pitch, which reminds me how i used to come unstitched, and switch round the house in a blind rage, it took years and an ocean of tears to find the key to this cage, advance another stage into a new age. It's difficult to gauge, but I know i'll see you again, on that you can depend, I just dont know how or when. Sleep on my last love, i'm gone. more free lyrics |
