|
I stole a peacock's feather and stuck it in my eye |
|
Blinded by beauty, I fell into her arms |
|
And the night sung me to sleep |
|
The day stole a nightmare where my father was an old dying man |
|
Sitting by the riverbed on a cross, with a peacock feather stuck in his side. |
|
I looked inside that gaping wound and saw a dream that would not sleep. |
|
And he looked at me, and he said, |
|
"I've married my future |
|
I've murdered my life |
|
Was it worth all the suffering? |
|
Was it worth all the time? |
|
With a million loose changes |
|
In the pocket of my past |
|
My world is standing still too fast." |
