Ode To Sad Disco

Mark Lanegan - Ode To Sad Disco

.

The sun’s tolling bell

Subterranean eyes

A thousand to one

The factory line

Stars outside the window flicker and shine

The hollow headed morning isn’t blind

A mountain of nails burn in your hands

Here I give all I am

.

Gloria

I get down on my knees

Further from my own

.

A tower of stones

Sympathy’s shade

Ride a white horse

The drowned on parade

A diamond headed serpent climbs a vine

See all the lonely children lose their minds

A mountain of dust burns in your mouth

Here there’s no north, just south

.

Gloria

I get down on my knees

Further from my own

.

Gloria

I get down on my knees

Further from my own

.

Thirst swollen tongue

An Arcadian twist

The sleepwalk is done

Yet the notion persists

Cars outside the window careening by

The hollow headed morning is unkind

.

Gloria

I get down on my knees

Further from my own

.

Gloria

I get down on my knees

Further from my own

.

Under a cliff

Darkness denied

Here I have seen the light

Here I have seen the light

Here I have seen the light

Here I have seen the light

Here I have seen the light

Here I have seen the light

Here I have seen the light
