Letra de Sunrise in East

Now you told us to leave but we wanted to stay
Had a love for the game and the music we play
And there were great things among the recordings we madeWe used to have it on tape but we threw it away
Where beggars and bangers go bump in the night
A guitar will switch on the overdrive
And a girl will give birth to a voodoo child
In a basement below where we sometimes hide

Where tomorrow lights the present like a flame
Childlike men give in to madness
Where life itself is like a web of dreams

We′ve been sitting in the shadows
Scraping blood from off our knees
Waiting for the sun to warm our bodies
In the middle of the meadows
Like a swarm of hungry bees
Full of poisonous chemics and honey

Where the question in mind like a hole in the head
Is the last of the poets to die in bed
Where the greatest thing you have ever said
Is "The Sunrise In East" and "The Queen Is Dead"

Where the sound of laughter cuts you like a knife
The jokes are long and leave you tired
Where everyone deserts you when you smile

We've been sitting in the shadows
Scraping blood from off our knees
Waiting for the sun to warm our bodies
In the middle of the meadows
Like a swarm of hungry bees
Full of poisonous chemics and honey
