Альбом Low

Oh my my
Little white lies
I swear I'm gonna make it right
This time
It's not the radio
Turn it way down low
Telling me things I do not know I know

Tonight you will be mine
Tonight the monkey dies
Tonight you will be mine
Tonight the monkey dies

Now who's to blame

You used to be the same
Now you won't let me speak your name
What a shame
It's a suicide
Shut up and drive
We're never going to make the light
but it's all right

Tonight you will be mine
Tonight the monkey dies
Tonight you will be mine
Tonight the monkey dies

(repeat chorus)

See your reflection in the mire
You keep your revelations wide
They knew just where to draw the line
You let them cut you every time

Though it breaks your heart
You had to sell the farm
Back to California where it's warm

It fell around you like the stars
You picked up everything they dropped
And though it breaks you like a song (?)
You had some secrets of your own

And though it breaks your heart
You had to sell the farm
Back to California where it's warm
It's warm
It's warm

And though it breaks your heart
You had to sell the farm
Nights were just too long
With all your children gone
Would it keep you strong
If I said it with a song?
Back to California where it's warm

Pour yourself another cup
Another cup
Another cup
And wait
I can't wait forever

Live your life of stupid luck
Of stupid luck
Of stupid luck
It's a game
Nobody does it better

Breaking everybody's heart
Taking everyone apart
Breaking everybody's heart
Singing everybody's song

All your dreams are waking up
They're waking up
They're waking up
Cause hey, you can't sleep forever

Every day they torture us
They torture us
They torture us
And say nothing stays together

Breaking everybody's heart
Taking everyone apart
Breaking everybody's heart
Singing everybody's song

Mother why did I become
The angry son
The angry one

Breaking everybody's heart
Taking everyone apart
Breaking everybody's heart
Singing everybody's song

At times I see you
You silver rider
Sometimes your voice is not enough

Your face in windows
Outside forever
Nobody dreamed you'd save the world
Nobody dreamed you'd save the world

La la la la etc

The march is over
The great destroyer
She passes through you like a knife

Oh take me with you
You silver rider
Sometimes you voice is not enough
Sometimes your voice is not enough

La la la etc

I can't decide and I can't hide
Make up my mind it's a waste of time
Here comes the knife
You better just stand back
I could turn on you so fast

It's a hit its got soul
Steal the show with your rock n' roll
With a swing like that you better just stand back
I could turn on you so fast

Just like diamonds in your hand
I'll just cut you in the end

One more step and I'll slit your neck
You'll get use to it you better just stand back
I could turn on you so fast
I could turn on you so fast
I could turn on you so fast
Just like diamonds in your hand
I could turn on you so fast
I just cut you in the end
I could turn on you so fast

Soft from your lips to the rise of your stomach
Your long filthy fingers keep jamming words down my throat

Nothing to steal you've got nothing to love
Nothing to spill because oh we're so innocent

Oh, oh, on the edge of
Oh, oh, on the edge of

I could have built you a house on the ocean
The ocean repeating, receeding in to the sun

So cut to you, Daniel, now cut to the live feed
Cut through our bodies at last bleeding in to one

Oh, oh, on the edge of
Oh, oh, on the edge of
Oh, oh, oh etc

Before you speak the words
So plain to see
Upon your skin
They sing
They dance and spin

So what pray tell
Will save you now
Here comes that cold sunrise

And at the peak we reach
To cue the strings
They ring so sweet
They lean
And plead release

So what pray tell
Will save you now
Here comes that cold sunrise
Here comes that cold sunrise

And levee's breaking
Feel it shaking like the dead
All the kids are sleeping
Silent dreams beneath their heads
Gonna wake up screaming
Little lights above your bed

Hey
Keep an eye on what you say
You think the words just walk away
But they creep in through my breath
Sinking deep into my my step
My step

Ah ah ah (etc)

I'm the walrus darling
No-one ever knows my name
You are the chorus sweet thing
Never sing that song again

Hey
Keep an eye on what you say
You think the words just walk away
But they creep in through my breath
Sinking deep into my my step
My step
My step
My step (etc)

When I go deaf
I won't even mind
Yeah, I'll be all right
I'll be just fine

I'll stay out all night
Looking at the sky
I'll still have my sight
Yeah, I'll still have my eyes

And we will make love
We won't have to fight
We won't have to speak
And we won't have to lie

And I'll stop writing songs
Stop scratching out lines
I won't have to fake
And it won't have to rhyme

When I go deaf
When I go deaf
When I go deaf
When I go deaf (etc)

Last night
Just north of Houston
Broadway
So many people
Through your
First storey window
I see my favourite record store

Where is the laughter?
Where is the laughter?

Smiling
Tasting the irony
Broadway
So many people
Outside
Just round the corner
Leather
And a Bob Marley t-shirt

Where is the laughter?
Where is the laughter?

Baby
Ten thousand years ago
Broadway
So many people
Sleeping
Down at the factory
Waiting
And singing so softly

Where is the laughter?
Where is the laughter?
The garden of Eden
Voices of children
Where is the laughter?

I can't see
Sing the darker of
Pissing on my toes
Knowing what I know
I know

I'm waiting
Like a loyal whore
Under every stone
Lovers sleep alone
Alone
Alone

Lovers sleep alone
Alone
Alone

So I took my guitar
And I threw down some chords
And some words I could sing
Without shame
And I soon had a song
I played it around
For some friends
But they all said the same

They said "Music's for fools
You should go back to school
The future is prisons and math."
So I did what they said
Now my children are fed
Cause they pay me to do what I'm asked

I forgot all my songs
The words now are wrong
And I burned my guitar in a rage
But the fire came to rest
In your white velvet breast
So somehow I just know that it's safe

I could walk into the sea
And choke away the memory
Do I have to stay alive
Just to keep our dresses white?

You come to me in dreams
With all the other pretty things
You tell me about a Savior
And how the soul lives on forever

And time is just a hunger
It bleeds us out to nothing
And when it finally takes us over
I hope weпїЅll float away together

Yeah, timeпїЅs the great destroyer
Leaves every child a bastard
When it finally takes us over
I hope weпїЅll float away together

Ooooh (etc)
