PINK FLOYD - The Final Cut lyrics

rate me

Through the fish eyed lens of tear stained eyes<br>I can barely define the shape of this moment in time<br>And far from flying high in clear blue skies<br>I'm spiralling down to the hole in the ground where I hide<br>If you negotiate the minefield in the drive<br>And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes<br>And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall<br>Dial the combination. open the priesthole<br>And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall<br>There's a kid who had a big hallucination<br>Making love to girls in magazines<br>He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith<br>Could anybody love him<br>Or is it just a crazy dream<br>And if I show you my dark side<br>Will you still hold me tonight<br>And if I open my heart to you<br>And show you my weak side<br>What would you do<br>Would you sell your story to rolling stone<br>Would you take the children away<br>And leave me alone<br>And smile in reassurance<br>As you whisper down the phone<br>Would you send me packing<br>Or would you take me home<br>Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings<br>Thought I oughta tear the curtain down<br>I held the blade in trembling hands<br>Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang<br>I never had the nerve to make the final cut
