[00:35.00] |
I was feeling so mortal |
[00:40.00] |
Legends were lined by my side |
[00:46.00] |
The world was standing on its head |
[00:48.00] |
My senses had forsaken me |
[00:50.00] |
And I saw through a million eyes |
[00:53.00] |
And I saw them waiting for me |
[00:58.00] |
Their lashes painted black |
[01:02.00] |
Their eyes were like a crucifix |
[01:06.00] |
Their lips were as pink as Cadillacs |
[01:11.00] |
I was feeling like an angel |
[01:14.00] |
My madman was waiting in the wings |
[01:17.00] |
Just to hear his cue |
[01:19.00] |
Then I felt just like the devil's son |
[01:22.00] |
Wasted, wounded, on the run |
[01:24.00] |
Then I felt just like me and you |
[01:27.00] |
And I saw them surrounding me |
[01:32.00] |
With mirrors and rose-tinted bones |
[01:36.00] |
Wearing only a lion's mane |
[01:40.00] |
One hand on the golden horn |
[01:42.00] |
And one hand on the telephone |
[01:46.00] |
And it's a strange way down |
[01:49.00] |
From the cradle to the hearse |
[01:54.00] |
Take me back or put me in reverse |
[02:01.00] |
'Cos you'll never be the last one |
[02:05.00] |
And you'll never be the first |
[02:19.00] |
Maybe we'll all meet again |
[02:13.00] |
In another universe |
[02:24.00] |
Oh and then I was a titan |
[02:27.00] |
A hero of the silver screen |
[02:29.00] |
Just waiting for my bell |
[02:32.00] |
And then I was a troubadour |
[02:35.00] |
Wailing waif the girls adore |
[02:37.00] |
Then I was the hounds of hell |
[02:40.00] |
And I heard them blowing kisses |
[02:44.00] |
From within their satin sheets |
[02:48.00] |
Where their bodies lay |
[02:50.00] |
Like arrows and bows |
[02:52.00] |
Boys falling at their feet |
[02:57.00] |
And it's a strange way down |
[03:00.00] |
From the cradle to the hearse |
[03:06.00] |
Take me back or put me in reverse |
[03:13.00] |
'Cos you'll never be the last one |
[03:17.00] |
And you'll never be the first |
[03:21.00] |
Maybe we'll all meet again |
[03:24.00] |
In another universe |
[03:28.00] |
I'm son of the richest man |
[03:31.00] |
The sister of an outcast |
[03:36.00] |
Oh today I'm in the future |
[03:38.00] |
Tomorrow I'll be in the past |
[03:44.00] |
I'm daughter of a daydream |
[03:46.00] |
The brother of a madman |
[03:51.00] |
I've changed my name so often |
[03:54.00] |
I'm beginning not to care |
[03:59.00] |
Now I feel my powers fading |
[04:01.00] |
As the blueprints and diagrams |
[04:03.00] |
And history books hold me to their hip |
[04:07.00] |
And my limbs start trembling |
[04:09.00] |
As my vision starts fading |
[04:11.00] |
And my spirit starts to slip |
[04:15.00] |
And I see them wave goodbye |
[04:19.00] |
Their left hand was casting a curse |
[04:23.00] |
While singing songs of paradise |
[04:27.00] |
From another universe |
