Jim Carroll Band Dry Dreams Still Life I don't believe in sin But maybe I'll begin A vagrant evil's climbing up my skin The shadows from last week Are dancing in the street In homage to the darkness closing in It's hard to say what's different each new morning I need some clue to tell me when or where But it seems I must believe Night wears it on its sleeve A warning that the time's come to prepare . . . I owe so much to someone I've watched her teardrops fall Like wings that melted reaching for the sun I need her to be near To clarify the dangers I didn't come this far to die with strangers I can't explain exactly what I'm saying But you're the only reason I still care But things become so clear When the spider licks her tears A warning that the time's come to prepare . . . I beg you not to leave me With these warnings in the air . . . I never thought I'd say it But for once I'm truly scared We create every lie In order to survive To mirror all the terror in our souls With nothing left to steal Lies make our lives seem real It slows down all the madness like a shield I don't know why I need to understand it I don't know if there's anyone who cares I don't know how or why It could be something in the sky That makes it seem it's best to be prepared . . . I don't know where it will be Two by land . . . One by sea Sleep with one eye open Be prepared The spectres ride the stallions of my ruin The shifting of my blood tell me it's soon . . . I don't know how Or why . . . it could be Something in the sky That makes it seem the time says to beware Little boy, Looking at the sky, Tell me what you see? Little boy Looking at the sky, Tell me what you see??? Copyright Earl McGrath Music/Jim Carroll Music, ASCAP/Missing Finger Music, BMI (1982) |
