Roses in the Hospital Live

E' la nuova Song Of The Moment, da Gold Against The Soul del 1993 - il mio album preferito :)

Roses in the hospital

Roses in the hospital
Try to pull my fingernails out
Roses in the hospital
I want to cling to something soft
Roses in the hospital
Progressing like a constant war
Roses in the hospital
There's no one to feel ashamed for

All we wanted was a home
Now we are so strung out we wanna own
Like a leaf in the autumn breeze
Like a flood in January
We don't want your fucking love

Roses in the hospital
Stub cigarettes out on my arm
Roses in the hospital
Want to feel something of value
Roses in the hospital
Nothing really makes me happy
Roses in the hospital
Heroin is just too trendy

All we wanted was a home
Now we're so strung out we wanna own
Like a leaf in the autumn breeze
Like a flood in January
We don't want your fucking love

Roses in the hospital
This century achieved so much
Roses in the hospital
To make a voice no voice at all
Roses in the hospital
Flowers cannot express the loss
Roses in the hospital
Torn reflections of burnt out trash
Burnt out trash

Forever ever delayed
Forever ever delayed
Forever
Forever

Forever ever delayed
(Independence is a game)
Forever ever delayed
(Credibility, I'm yawning)
Forever
Forever
Rudi Rudi Rudi can't fail

Forever ever delayed
Forever delayed
Forever
Forever

Forever delayed
The West scratches onto my skin
Forever delayed
Contagious like a suntan
We never felt any sun
Rudi Rudi Rudi gonna fail

Indian Summer

Per il primo post del nuovo anno ho scelto una delle pochissime canzoni con un testo positivo; a dire il vero con tutto quello che sta succedendo in giro per il mondo ero dell'idea di usare tutt'altro, Of Walking Abortion per esempio, ma visto che sono della filosofia the best times are yet to come..

Forse quest'estate arriverà e ci schiarirà la mente / Per trovare l'impulso ad amare ancora la luce del sole..



Indian Summer

If God persists, persists in saying yes
I guess we’ll have, we’ll have to test ourselves
Maybe this summer will come and clear our minds
To find the impulse to love the sunshine

I guess we’ll have to test
Until there’s nothing left
We said that truth was fixed
It’s lost without a trace

Whose crime is eternity
When time lost is certainty
The Indian summer

Maybe this time we’ll kiss and we’ll not shake hands
Indian summer, still and unbroken
And leave all this material beneath
Remember the reasons
The reasons that made us be

I guess we’ll have to test
what's darker than ourselves
We said the truth was fixed
It’s lost without a trace

Whose crime is eternity
When time lost is certainty
The Indian summer…

I guess we’ll have to test
Until there’s nothing left
We said that truth was fixed
It’s lost without a trace…


Il video è quello ufficiale, Indian Summer è il 3° singolo estratto da Send Away The Tigers. Lo passano su MTV Italia? Se mi è capitato di vedere un paio di volte Autumnsong è già tanto!
