作曲 : Creager | |
Smoke rises from the ice factory on the edge, | |
On the edge of a city that exist in perpetual gloom. | |
I snatch a note from the basket of a passing bicycle - | |
It says, "Go to the flour factory. There's something waiting there for you." | |
Under the window, covered by curtains, | |
All lacy and splattered with blood, | |
We find crutches in the corner and bullets on the shelves, | |
Which I dismiss at once as being equivalent, irrelevent, in and of themselves. | |
Underneath a staircase is a mast which flies a flag. | |
Despite dankess beyond imagining, it floats on to a higher hole. | |
In tunnels gouged beneathe the basement rooms are, unmistakably, | |
Sets of bloody handprints on a crumbling wall. | |
Oh won't you be there with me for it, tonight? | |
In this hut-to-hut witch hunt, down the tunnels of Old Yellowcake, | |
When all the souls in a city go drowning by starlight, | |
Where each choice you make is a fierce firefight or a new mistake? | |
Inside of a room is a cage, is a cage. | |
It's made out of chain and class. | |
It's about forty feet high and three feet wide, | |
And it was built to last. | |
It's against a brick wall | |
In an old muddy corner of a basement tunnel room. | |
There's a man in the cage in the old, muddy corner. | |
He's asleep, but he'll wake up soon. | |
Under the window, covered by curtains, | |
All lacy and splattered with blood, | |
We find crutches in the corner and bullets on the shelves, | |
Which I dismiss at once as being equivalent, irrelevant, in and of themselves. | |
Oh won't you be there with me for it, tonight? | |
In this hut-to-hut witch hunt, down the tunnels of Old Yellowcake, | |
When all the souls in a city go drowning by starlight, | |
Where each choice you make is a fierce firefight or a new mistake? |
