You Took the Sun When You Left Songtext
Shelves of books
For your intellect
Piles of clothes
For your dignity
The knowledge is worthless
The linen is stained
Starved for weeks in squalor and filth
None of your tongues matter now
I (I) am (am) traced in the sun
He (he) lives (lives) through his first-born son
Feeding (feeding) from (from) an abscess in the wall
Lungs (lungs) filling (filling), corroding the frame
Drowning in fire and spires of blood
Fighting for a last breath of the grey air
Wading the grief leaving a wake
One last portrait of my stained face
Shelves of books
For your intellect
Heaps of clothes
For your dignity
I want to watch it go down in flames
It′s long overdue
30 long years I waited
For it to smoulder
And the last trace of warmth will leave the soil
And you took the sun with you when you left
For your intellect
Piles of clothes
For your dignity
The knowledge is worthless
The linen is stained
Starved for weeks in squalor and filth
None of your tongues matter now
I (I) am (am) traced in the sun
He (he) lives (lives) through his first-born son
Feeding (feeding) from (from) an abscess in the wall
Lungs (lungs) filling (filling), corroding the frame
Drowning in fire and spires of blood
Fighting for a last breath of the grey air
Wading the grief leaving a wake
One last portrait of my stained face
Shelves of books
For your intellect
Heaps of clothes
For your dignity
I want to watch it go down in flames
It′s long overdue
30 long years I waited
For it to smoulder
And the last trace of warmth will leave the soil
And you took the sun with you when you left
