Текст David Gray — Skellig

Were that the song I’m singing
Was an ocean wide
Let the word I’m breathing
Reach us over to the other side

You chart a burning vessel
Out on a pitch black wave
Chewing the bone and gristle
When it’s the flesh of love you crave

When a lie starts dancing
Oh boy, it sure can run
Halfway around the world
Before the truth can get its trousers on

And in a nightclub mirror
We caught the merest glimpse
Of my pre-human spirit
Frozen like a deer in the headlamps

Till it just don’t matter
Till we’re far from care
When illusion shatters
You see the carnage everywhere

Everywhere
Everywhere

To where they taste like metal
Through the fog of war
Too many hurts like nettles
Growing up around my door

Then they cut that stairway
Yeah, with my own bare hands
To that high rock plateau
Make my home inside the winds

Inside the winds
Inside the winds
Up to that high rocking plateau
Make my home inside the winds
