Faithless - Killer Lullaby lyrics
Your rating:
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.
