Black Venetian Blind (Page I) Songtext
von Giant Sand

I can get right in on
So come to denial
Get away with the perfect crime or put myself on trial
In my window

A black Venetian blind
Black Venetian blind
I′m aware there's a world out there
But I don′t need to go blind

When fountains fall, where the big storms blow
Double the graveyard shift, cancel the late show
How many patriarchs and sellers of time?
There are those who build their arks and soldiers of slime
There in their window

A black Venetian blind
Black Venetian blind
I'm aware there's a world out there
But I don′t need to go blind


Yeah
There′s just a light

They don't matter where
They′ve all gone away
I don't believe they won′t come
Never be back anyway

There goes a man on a phone
Got the whole story right
But he can't believe his ears
So he turns out the light
In his window

Black Venetian blind
Black Venetian blind
I′m aware there's a world out there
I'm aware there′s a world somewhere

This boy don′t need to go blind
Nothing I need to mind
I don't need to go blind

It′s nice and dark in here
