Torch Song Songtext
von The Legendary Pink Dots

With a star on my arm and a ring through my nose
Put my life in your hands and I′ll lay in the road
As the TVs drop and the tear gas flows
And the angel of mercy's a sinister glow
To a room that′s a block from where I'm frightened to go
And I'm seen as a ghost in your headlights
We burn so bright, we side with the righteous
A rose in a rifle, a bed for a tank
And I thank you for laughing and firing the blank
When I stood right before you and wept
As I sank to my knees
To my sorry, sorry knees
High as a kite and there′s so much to fight for
So much to die for, so much to kill for So much to hate, there′s so much to break
God damn, for God's sake
We′re damned
And I'm late
Late
So forgive me, brussel
I′m high as a kite, there's so much to fight for
So much to die for, so much to kill for
So much to hate, there′s so much to break
God damn, for God's sake
We're damned
And I′m late
For a very important date
