Lyrics to The Raging Against The Dying Of The Light Blues In 7/8
Woke up this morning, I'm the last man standing
It's a colder world that I see when there's nobody left to save me
Deep November damage gets you down
Not so clever when the king forgets his crown
War in the numbers, this childhood of mine
6 years of Septembers, best days of my life
I remember the lights from the fires in the sky
They brought us together and taught us to hide
I burned so bright, but I'm just a human candle set alight
I flew so high now I'm nothing but a falling satellite
Days get darker and the nights keep on drawing in
I got a hollow head and a hollow heart leaving me without within
Fading song, we sing along, but when it's gone I'm gone
The face in the mirror
I know every line
Old bones hammered thinner
By distance and time
Can't remember the names, but the faces survive
I'm trying to fight, but they keep me alive
I burned so bright, but I'm just a human candle set alight
I flew so high now I'm nothing but a falling satellite
I'm said, I'm done
No hide, no run
No light, no sun
But it's alright
I'm old video
Long gone radio
Someone you used to know
Who I used to know
Same river, same ocean, same life again
Seen seldom relations. Driving in rain.
The sum of existence, the years we lost.
We all fall back to earth, ashes and dust.
It's a colder world that I see when there's nobody left to save me
Deep November damage gets you down
Not so clever when the king forgets his crown
War in the numbers, this childhood of mine
6 years of Septembers, best days of my life
I remember the lights from the fires in the sky
They brought us together and taught us to hide
I burned so bright, but I'm just a human candle set alight
I flew so high now I'm nothing but a falling satellite
Days get darker and the nights keep on drawing in
I got a hollow head and a hollow heart leaving me without within
Fading song, we sing along, but when it's gone I'm gone
The face in the mirror
I know every line
Old bones hammered thinner
By distance and time
Can't remember the names, but the faces survive
I'm trying to fight, but they keep me alive
I burned so bright, but I'm just a human candle set alight
I flew so high now I'm nothing but a falling satellite
I'm said, I'm done
No hide, no run
No light, no sun
But it's alright
I'm old video
Long gone radio
Someone you used to know
Who I used to know
Same river, same ocean, same life again
Seen seldom relations. Driving in rain.
The sum of existence, the years we lost.
We all fall back to earth, ashes and dust.
