Devin Townsend - Bastard - Текст песни

[Words and music by Devin Townsend]

[1] Not one of the better days
Nighttime, turn around 
Lonely is the city tonight 
Nighttime, all around 
Lonely in the city tonight 

Grey people stare at a static sky (as you will) 
Ours is not to question why 

Same thing, every time 
It always seems to need what I'm not 
To all the hopeful ones: 
Nobody gives a fuck what you've got 

I only wish that I could pray to god 
(but you will) 
Stay longer 
Please don't leave me alone 

Bastard, mother, father, no... 
Time passed quicker than you will ever know 
And they can push me harder 
But you know I'll never go 
And they will justify it, but you know 
It will take them slow 

[2] The girl from blue city
The lights from across the harbour 
And the boys are out on the corners 
Sex in the neon basements (red and smelly) 
And don't feel a thing (it's too cold to worry) 
So in the corner by the dock 
Where there's no light 
It smells like piss but no one knows 
And right now just to sleep would be alright 

...Feel old, gone where the feelings go 
...Gone now in a field of green 
Gone where feelings go...
