Krakatau Songtext
von Cass McCombs

Take my shirt but not the thread
Take my mind but not my head
Take my body not my bones
Take my rocks but not the stones

Take my impatience
Take my intolerance
Hate and avarice
Take it from me now
Take my temptations
Take it from me now
Take my frustrations
I don′t need them anyhow
I'm gone to Krakatau
Take it from me now

Take my image but not my face
Take my charm but not my grace
Take my life but not my breath
Take my decline but not my death


Take my impatience
Take my intolerance
Hate and avarice
Take it from me now
Take my temptations
Take it from me now
Take my frustrations
I don′t need them anyhow
I'm gone to Krakatau
Take it from me now

Take my brooding but not my fear
Take my false clarity but not my tears
Take my resentment,
I've had plenty
I surrender them all effortlessly

Take my impatience
Take my intolerance
Hate and avarice
Take it from me now
Take my temptations
Take it from me now
Take my frustrations
I don′t need them anyhow
I′m gone to Krakatau


Take my impatience
Take my intolerance
Hate and avarice
Take it from me now
Take my temptations
Take it from me now
Take my frustrations
I don't need them anyhow
I′m gone to Krakatau
Take it from me now
