Black Wings |
| [00:05.74] |
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) |
| [00:06.38] |
|
| [00:06.77] |
Take an eye for an eye |
| [00:10.40] |
Take a tooth for a tooth |
| [00:13.09] |
Just like they say in the Bible |
| [00:18.40] |
Never leave a trace or forget a face |
| [00:24.38] |
Of any man at the table |
| [00:29.25] |
Any man at the table |
| [00:32.75] |
|
| [00:33.32] |
When the moon is a cold chiseled dagger |
| [00:40.40] |
And it's sharp enough to draw blood from a stone |
| [00:47.80] |
He rides through your dreams on a coach |
| [00:50.96] |
And horses and the fence posts |
| [00:54.96] |
In the midnight look like bones |
| [00:58.90] |
|
| [01:00.09] |
Well they've stopped trying to hold him |
| [01:03.53] |
With mortar, stone and chain |
| [01:07.42] |
He broke out of every prison |
| [01:11.03] |
Well boots mount the staircase |
| [01:14.78] |
The door is flung back open |
| [01:18.16] |
He's not there for he has risen |
| [01:23.09] |
He's not there for he has risen |
| [01:26.53] |
|
| [01:27.69] |
Well he once killed a man with a guitar string |
| [01:34.18] |
He's been seen at the table with kings |
| [01:40.66] |
Well he once saved a baby from drowning |
| [01:47.12] |
There are those who say beneath his coat there are wings |
| [01:53.20] |
|
| [01:53.85] |
Some say they fear him |
| [01:57.59] |
|
| [02:48.35] |
Some say they fear him |
| [02:51.56] |
Others admire him |
| [02:54.04] |
Because he steals his promise |
| [02:58.85] |
One look in his eye |
| [03:02.60] |
Everyone denies |
| [03:06.26] |
Ever having met him |
| [03:10.17] |
Ever having met him |
| [03:13.98] |
|
| [03:14.86] |
He can turn himself into a stranger |
| [03:21.67] |
Well they broke a lot of canes on his hide |
| [03:28.17] |
he was born away in a cornfield |
| [03:34.61] |
A fever beats in his head like a drum inside |
| [03:41.64] |
|
| [03:41.87] |
Some say they fear him |
| [03:45.36] |
Others admire him |
| [03:48.48] |
Because he steals his promise |
| [03:52.17] |
One look in his eye |
| [03:56.23] |
Everyone denies |
| [03:59.76] |
Ever having met him |
| [04:02.84] |
Ever having met him |
| [04:06.42] |
Ever having met him |
| [04:09.42] |
Ever having met him |
| [04:12.61] |
Ever having met him |
| [04:16.64] |
Ever having met him |
| [04:23.58] |
