more depressive thoughts... hey man, for the bluesy pple.
dun read this if you're not bluesy
the promise of life is a sweet lie
it is the sweetest lie
to be promised life
after you have reached the promised land.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
so let it be short and sweet.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
it is sweetest when i lay down to die.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
when you are hung out to dry, sweet leopard.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
the premise of life is also a lie.
the promise of life is a lie.
go and cry (may substitute with 'die').
the promise of life is a sweet lie
i promise you this:
you will cry out for more.
(image of baby exiting womb and crying admist cheerful doctors and exhausted mom.)
the promise of life is a sweet lie
like this cherry flavoured vodka champagne cocktail
get drunk on life get drunk.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
i have a hangover
they left me to dry.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
how sweet your deadly lips
belladonna thereafter i won't need to speak.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
mummy they switched off the lights
i can't find my way home.
the way home is another road to rome.
and there forever i am cursed to roam.
the promise of life
the host gave me his wife
she is a sweet lie
no no
she is a sweeter lay.
cold were her feet
and damp were her hands.
folded and crossed
we made love and slept.
folded and crossed.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
i sow my seeds and i reap them
later the reaper grips me.
the promise of life is a sweet lie
i was a child
and they gave me sweets.
(cherub reaching for lollipop)
beyond my reach.
ok... this is it.
sad stuff to read when you're sad.
though radiohead, travis and damien jurado are still the best.
