Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Messiah Ward lyrics

rate me

I hope you're sitting comfortably

I saved you the best seat in the house

Right up in the front row

The stars have been torn down

The moon is locked away

And the land is banked in frozen snow

You are a forte of nature, dear

Your breath curls from your lips

As the trees bend down their branches

And touch you with their fingertips

They're bringing out the dead now

It's easy just to look away

They are bringing out the dead now

It's been a strange, strange day

We could navigate out position by the stars

But they've taken out the stars

The stars have all gone

I'm glad you've come along

We could comprehend our

condition by the moon

But they've ordered the the moon not to shine

Still, I 'm glad you've come along

I was worried out of my mind

Cause, they keep bringing out the dead

It's easy just to look away

They're bringing out the dead, now

And it's been a long, strange day

You can move up a little closer

I will throw a blanket over

We can weigh all the tears in one hand

Against the laughter in the other

We could be hanging around here for centuries

Trying to make sense of this, my dear

While the planets try to get organised

Way above the stratosphere

But they keep bringing out the dead, now

It's easy if we just walk away

They keep bringing out the dead, now

It's been a long, long day

Look away

Look away
