Notice of Eviction Songtext
von Saul Williams

Something is dying tonight.
There will be no more breath and no more light
I′ve burned every candle and extinguished every fear
And I've waited for your time to pass
To bring in my new year

Something is dying tonight
There will be no more struggle
No more fight
And I′ve known that I'd have to live through suffering and
Youth but I'm the landlord of my dreams now and
My tenets rent is due.


Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me
Something is dying tonight
My old paddles off to Saturn
Taking flight and the astronaut within me
Has no air supply at all so
He′s plunging into the deep sea
With no parachute to fall

Something is dying tonight
I can′t eat and I can't sleep
So I just write cause
I wanted you to lean on
To distract me from my feet
Oh my karma will cure me
Out of bounds and out of reach

Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me
Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me


Author of winds of change, phantom of the opera
Tenor of the octet frame spews volcanic lava
Silent heart of the sun not just the world of interest
Sun retires calls it a day and sleeps a hundred winters
Darkness echoes thunder cries and wagers war of laughter
Dolphins come form sea and sky and the here after
Bumble bees crawl to the tops of trees and call out to the children
Little girl awakes from dream as Elvis leave the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Down poor from the darkest cloud and humiliated attention
Flasher of the third leads him to the fourth dimension
Shotgun rings across a plan down goes another line
Harlem church cries sing refrain; a margin of design
