I can't tell if this is real or if I am sleeping I'll embroider the truth And that's so I shall reap I took things that didn't belong to me I didn't mean to do you wrong Looking back on all that stolen time Back when I was drinking turpentine Don't blame me I only took you in It takes time to do the poisoning So let's close the door on this and lock it And that's all that it will ever be Just an accident of chemistry You did everything to me but stopped short of murder Couldn't move me much closer to keeping my word While the crowd threw stones at the hangman The sky fell down The bells rang Looking back on all that stolen time Back when I was drinking turpentine Don't blame me I only took you in It takes time to do the poisoning So let's close the door on this and lock it And that's all that it will ever be Just an accident of history Airless shaft of an underground railway Effete assassin with a hawk in a sack The earth will offer us in when our hearts fail As it swallowed the river running under the track I can't tell if I'm dreaming or if I'll awaken With a song in my heart that is longing to break Let it out and let it fly high Up where the spires scrape the sky Looking back on all that stolen time Back when I was drinking turpentine Don't blame me I only took you in It takes time to do the poisoning So let's close the door on this and lock it And that's all that it will ever be Just an accident of history Airless shaft of an underground railway Cute assassin with a hawk in a sack The earth will offer us in when our hearts fail Swallowed the river running under the track That's right |
