Jason Collett - Bitter Beauty

Текст песни

All the flowers fade
And all the star? s pale
As this bitter beauty
Grabs you by the tail
How long will you hesitate?
Half way up the trail
Yes, it’s dark in the trees
And some wounds never heal
And you’re dreamin'
With eyes wide open
Your heart has spoken
For the first time
All the gun-for-hire poets
Who try to sing so loud
Just to drown out the roar
As the bombs hit the ground
And the band is whistling Dixie
For its sentimental sake
Yeah, that’s the sound and the fury
Of this new dark day
And you’re dreamin'
With eyes wide open
Your heart has spoken
For the first time
For the first time
All the penny wishes
And the trickle down schemes
And the Cracker Jack box prizes
Splitting at the seams
And you’re standing in the doorway
With your hair all in a mess
You in all your glory
Wondering what comes next
And you’re dreamin'
With eyes wide open
Your heart has spoken
For the first time
And you’re dreamin'
With eyes wide open
Your heart has spoken
For the first time
And you’re dreamin'
With eyes wide open
Your heart has spoken
For the first time
You’re dreamin'
With eyes wide open
Your heart has spoken
For the first time
And you’re dreamin'
