Blinded By Faith - Shrivelled Wings lyrics
Your rating:
We went to see you at the hospital In your bed, you were already skeletal It was a matter of time before you died Cancer was eating you from inside So we decided to take you with us So you could at least spend your last minutes Away from those strangers in the cold We can't leave a dog on the threshold When your pain was unbearable Like molten lead pour in your innards You took morphine to get some relief Instantly falling in a coma-like sleep And I often wondered where you were then In a no man's land? Not far from heaven? In a color dream where you could screw All those women who didn't want you? [Chorus:] You were there, Death without poetry Grotesque and scandalous nudity I wanted to weep but tears didn't come My heart stood still like a frozen sun I could only stare at your open eyes Your mouth tensed with a silent cry Your shoulder blades under the skin Protruding like two shriveled wings In the night, you knocked on oblivion's door I found you still on the bathroom floor In a ring of clotted blood A fist in the face, my first cadaver So different than the other corpses I've seen Liars in black suits, masquerade! Perfectly prepared for the human parade A fake prayer in the funeral comedy [Chorus]
