Messiah Ward Lyrics

I hope you're sittin' comfortably I saved you the best seat in the house Right up in the front row Well, the stars have been torn down And the moon is locked away The land is banked in frozen snow
You are a forte nature, dear And your breath curls from your lips And the trees bend down their branches Touch you with their fingertips
They're bringin' out the dead, now It's easy well just to look away They are bringin' out the dead now It's been a strange, strange day
We could navigate out position by the stars Ya but they've taken out the stars Well, the stars have all gone And I'm glad, you've come along We could comprehend our condition by the moon Oh but they've ordered the moon not to shine Still, I 'm glad you've come along [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/messiah-ward-lyrics-nick-cave-the-bad-seed.html ] I was worried out of my mind
'Cause, they keep bringin' out the dead, now And it's easy just to look away They're bringin' out the dead And it's been a long, strange day
You can move up a little closer I will throw a blanket over We can weigh all the tears up in one hand Against the laughter in the other We could be hangin' around for centuries Tryin' to make sense of this, my dear While the planets try to get organized Way above the stratosphere
But they bringin' out the dead, now And it's easy if we just walk away 'Cause they keep bringin' out the dead, now And it's been a long, long day
Look away Look away Look away ...
