歌词
In the autumn of my madness
When my hair is turning grey
For the milk has finally curdled
And I've nothing left to say
Bring all my friends unto me
Save my last departing birds
Bring all my friends unto me
I'll strangle them with words...
In the autumn of my madness
Which in coming won't be long
For the nights are now much darker
And the daylight's not so strong
And the things which I believed in
Are no longer quite enough
For the knowing is much harder
And the going's getting rough...
♪
I know if I'd been wiser
This would never have occurred
But I wallowed in my blindness
So it's plain that I deserve
For the sin of self-indulgence
When the truth was writ quite clear
I must spend my life amongst the dead
Who spend their lives in fear
Of a death that they're not sure of
Of a life they can't control
It's all so simple really
If you just look to your soul
♪
Some say that I'm a wise man
Some think that I'm a fool
It doesn't matter either way
I'll be a wise man's fool
For the lesson lies in learning
And by teaching I'll be taught
For there's nothing hidden anywhere
It's all there to be sought
And so if you know anything
Look closely at the time
At others who remain untrue
And don't commit that crime
♪
All's so simple really
If you just look to your soul...
