Alcatraz

歌詞

I stood helpless to the threat Of a heavy lid i'll never lift And when the gavel hit the desk Metal shut around me Marshals at my wrist Led me down the longest hall Down the darkest throat Of the hardest animal And just listen to the wind Wailing like the wounded Over the lincoln highway bridge Down in the valley or in the street d On't let the ad men fool you You got everything you need Out in your sheets beside your love Recognize the instant Memorize the pose Despite all the hatred i held for you Despite all the violence i could do Just beyond, there is love And when i'm alone with only my thoughts And as you might know, i'm alone a lot It's the love i'm thinking of Out in that city like a dream See the breezes go around you See the long grasses yield Be out there exiting the bars At the finest hour of morning Nearly lost, but not Be warm and steady in the wind And your soft, imperfect body Do not cover it
