Sky Blue Skin (demo - September 13, 1996) Songtext
von Jeff Buckley

Take the pain until it all rings hollow
We learn to loathe the truth as it shines
I already see the ghosts on the sidewalk
Kissing in the hereafter

And your hands are in your pockets as you face him
And your bodies′ both frozen by the dawn
Only one knows they're watching it die
They′re there from hereafter


Young life crosses young love
You've learned to think life is for somebody else
You make it hard to live it for yourself
And the man you love just doesn't know just what he′s after

Chances are you wouldn′t even recognize the man I am now
Chances are you wouldn't even recognize the man I am now
Yeah, chances are you wouldn′t even recognize the man I am now
Yeah, make up any excuse
To remedies you can't control
The knife wanders through me so slow
It cuts between us as we grow
Mmm

(That′s all... That's all it is)
