The Obvious ChildVer letra 4:38

[X]
letra de The Obvious Child
I'm accustomed to a smooth ride

Or maybe I'm a dog who's lost its bite

I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more

I don't expect to sleep through the night

Some people say a lie's a lie's a lie

But I say why

Why deny the obvious child?

Why deny the obvious child?

And in remembering a road sign

I am remembering a girl when I was young

And we said These songs are true

These days are ours

These tears are free

And hey

The cross is in the ballpark

The cross is in the ballpark

We had a lot of fun

We had a lot of money

We had a little son and we thought we'd call him Sonny

Sonny gets married and moves away

Sonny has a baby and bills to pay

Sonny gets sunnier

Day by day by day by day

I've been waking up at sunrise

I've been following the light across my room

I watch the night receive the room of my day

Some people say the sky is just the sky

But I say

Why deny the obvious child?

Why deny the obvious child?

Sonny sits by his window and thinks to himself

How it's strange that some rooms are like cages

Sonny's yearbook from high school

Is down from the shelf

And he idly thumbs through the pages

Some have died

Some have fled from themselves

Or struggled from here to get there

Sonny wanders beyond his interior walls

Runs his hand through his thinning brown hair

Well I'm accustomed to a smoother ride

Maybe I'm a dog that's lost his bite

I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more

I don't expect to sleep the night

Some people say a lie is just a lie

But I say the cross is in the ballpark

Why deny the obvious child?

letra de The Boy In The Bubble
It was a slow day

And the sun was beating

On the soldiers by the side of the road

There was a bright light

A shattering of shop windows

The bomb in the baby carriage

Was wired to the radio

These are the days of miracle and wonder

This is the long distance call

The way the camera follows us in slo-mo

The way we look to us all

The way we look to a distant constellation

That's dying in a corner of the sky

These are the days of miracle and wonder

And don't cry baby, don't cry

Don't cry

It was a dry wind

And it swept across the desert

And it curled into the circle of birth

And the dead sand

Falling on the children

The mothers and the fathers

And the automatic earth

These are the days of miracle and wonder

This is the long distance call

The way the camera follows us in slo-mo

The way we look to us all

The way we look to a distant constellation

That's dying in a corner of the sky

These are the days of miracle and wonder

And don't cry baby, don't cry

Don't cry

It's a turn-around jump shot

It's everybody jump start

It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts

Medicine is magical and magical is art

The Boy in the Bubble

And the baby with the baboon heart

And I believe

These are the days of lasers in the jungle

Lasers in the jungle somewhere

Staccato signals of constant information

A loose affiliation of millionaires

And billionaires and baby

These are the days of miracle and wonder

This is the long distance call

The way the camera follows us in slo-mo

The way we look to us all

The way we look to a distant constellation

That's dying in a corner of the sky

These are the days of miracle and wonder

And don't cry baby, don't cry

Don't cry
She Moves OnVer letra 6:25

letra de She Moves On
I feel good

It's a fine day

The way the sun hits off the runway

A cloud shifts

The plane lifts

She moves on

But feel the bite

Whenever you believe that

You'll be lost and love will find you

When the road bends

And the song ends

She moves on

I know the reason I

Feel so blessed

My heart still splashes

Inside my chest, but she

She is like a top

She cannot stop

She moves on

A sympathetic stranger

Lights a candle in the middle of the night

Her voice cracks

She jumps back

But she moves on

She says "Ooh my storybook lover

You have underestimated my power

As you shortly will discover"

The I fall to my knees

Shake a rattle at the skies

I'm afraid that I'll be taken

Abandoned, forsaken

In her cold coffee eyes

She can't sleep now

The moon is red

She fights a fever

She burns in bed

She needs to talk so

We take a walk

Down in the maroon light

She says "Maybe these emotions are

As near to love as love will ever be"

So I agree

Then the moon breaks

She takes the corner that's all she takes

She moves on

She says "Ooh my storybook lover

You have underestimated my power

As you shortly will discover"

Then I fall to my knees

I grow weak, I go slack

As if she captured the breath of my

voice in a bottle

And I can't catch it back

But I feel good

It's a fine day

The way the sun hits off the runway

A cloud shifts

The plane lifts

She moves on
KodachromeVer letra 4:13

[X]
letra de Kodachrome
When I think back

On all the crap I learned in high school

It's a wonder

I can think at all

And though my lack of education

Hasn't hurt me none

I can read the writing on the wall

Kodachrome

They give us those nice bright colors

They give us the greens of summers

Makes you think all the world's

a sunny day

I got a Nikon camera

I love to take a photograph

So mama don't take my Kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew

When I was single

And brought them all together

for one night

I know they'd never match

my sweet imagination

Everything looks worse

in black and white
Born At The Right TimeVer letra 5:12

[X]
letra de Born At The Right Time
Down among the reeds and rushes

A baby boy was found

His eyes as clear as centuries

His silky hair was brown

Never been lonely

Never been lied to

Never had to scuffle in fear

Nothing denied to

Born at the instant

The church bells chime

And the whole world whispering

Born at the right time

Me and my buddies we are travelling people

We like to go down to restaurant row

Spend those Euro-dollars

All the way from Washington to Tokyo

I see them in the airport lounge

Upon their mother's breast

They follow me with open eyes

Their uninvited guest

Never been lonely

Never been lied to

Never had to scuffle in fear

Nothing denied to

Born at the instant

The church bells chime

And the whole world whispering

Born at the right time

Too many people on the bus from the airport

Too many holes in the crust of the earth

The planet groans

Every time it registers another birth

But down among the reeds and rushes

A baby girl was found

Her eyes as clear as centuries

Her silky hair was brown

Never been lonely

Never been lied to

Never had to scuffle in fear

Nothing denied to

Born at the instant

The church bells chime

And the whole world whispering

Born at the right time
Train In The DistanceVer letra 4:45

letra de Train In The Distance
She was beautiful as Southern skies

The night he met her

She was married to someone

He was doggedly determined that he would get her

He was old, he was young

From time to time he'd tip his heart

But each time she withdrew

Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

Everybody thinks it's true

Well eventually the boy and the girl get married

Sure enough they have a son

And though they both were occupied

With the child she carried

Disagreements had begun

And in a while they fell apart

It wasn't hard to do

Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

Everybody thinks it's true

Two disappointed believers

Two people playing the game

Negotiations and love songs

Are often mistaken for one and the same

Now the man and the woman

Remain in contact

Let us say it's for the child

With disagreements about the meaning

Of a marriage contract

Conversations hard and wild

But from time to time

He makes her laugh

She cooks a meal or two

Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

Everybody thinks it's true

Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

Everybody thinks it's true

What is the point of this story

What information pertains

The thought that life could be better

Is woven indelibly

Into our hearts

And our brains

I Know What I KnowVer letra 4:44

[X]
letra de I Know What I Know
She looked me over

And I guess she thought

I was all right

All right in a sort of a limited way

For an off-night

She said don't I know you

From the cinematographer's party

I said who am I

To blow against the wind

I know what I know

I'll sing what I said

We come and we go

That's a thing that I keep

In the back of my head

She said there's something about you

That really reminds me of money

She is the kind of a girl

Who could say things that

Weren't that funny

I said what does that mean

I really remind you of money

She said who am I

To blow against the wind

I know what I know

I'll sing what I said

We come and we go

That's a thing that I keep

In the back of my head

She moved so easily

All I could think of was sunlight

I said aren't you the women

Who was recently given a Fulbright

She said don't I know you

From the cinematographer's party

I said who am I

To blow against the wind

I know what I know

I'll sing what I said

We come and we go

That's a thing that I keep

In the back of my head
The Cool, Cool RiverVer letra 5:40

[X]
letra de The Cool, Cool River
Moves like a fist through the traffic

Anger and no one can heal it

Shoves a little bump into the momentum

It's just a little lump

But you feel it

In the creases and the shadows

With a rattling deep emotion

The cool, cool river

Sweeps the wild, white ocean

Yes Boss. The government handshake

Yes Boss. The crusher of language

Yes Boss. Mr. Stillwater,

The face at the edge of the banquet

The cool, the cool river

The cool, the cool river

I believe in the future

I may live in my car

My radio tuned to

The voice of a star

Song dogs barking at the break of dawn

Lightning pushes the edge of a thunderstorm

And these old hopes and fears

Still at my side

Anger and no one can heal it

Slides through the metal detector

Lives like a mole in a motel

A slide in a slide projector

The cool, cool river

Sweeps the wild, white ocean

The rage of love turns inward

To prayers of devotion

And these prayers are

The constant road across the wilderness

These prayers are

These prayers are the memory of God

The memory of God

And I believe in the future

We shall suffer no more

Maybe not in my lifetime

But in yours I feel sure

Song dogs barking at the break of dawn

Lightning pushes the edges of a thunderstorm

And these streets

Quiet as a sleeping army

Send their battered dreams to heaven, to heaven

For the mother's restless son

Who is a witness to, who is a warrior

Who denies his urge to break and run

Who says: Hard times?

I'm used to them

The speeding planet burns

I'm used to that

My life's so common it disappears

And sometimes even music

Cannot substitute for tears
Bridge Over Troubled WaterVer letra 5:16

[X]
letra de Bridge Over Troubled Water
When you're weary, feelin' small

When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all

I'm on your side, oh, when times get rough, and friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

When you're down and out, when you're on the street

When evening falls so hard, I will comfort you

I'll take your part, oh when darkness comes, and pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

Sail on silver girl, sail on by

Your time has come to shine, and all your dreams will run their way

See how they shine, oh, if you need a friend, I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind

Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind
ProofVer letra 5:39

[X]
letra de Proof
Soon our fortunes will be made, my darling

And we will leave this loathsome little town

Silver bells jingling from your black lizard boots, my baby

Silver foil to trim your wedding gown

It's true the tools of love wear down

Time passes

A mid wanders

It seems mindless, but it does

Sometimes I see you face

As if through reading glasses

And your smile seems softer than it was

Proof

Some people gonna call you up

Tell you something that you already know

Proof

Sane people go crazy on you

Say ''No man, that was not

The deal we made

I got to go, I got to go''

Faith

Faith is an island in the setting sun

But proof, yes

Proof is the bottom line for everyone

My face, my race

Don't matter anymore

My sex, my cheques

Accepted at the door

Proof

Some people gonna call you up

Tell you something that you already know

Proof

Sane people go crazy on you

Say ''No man, that was not

The deal we made

I got to, I got to go''

Faith

Faith is an island in the setting sun

But proof, yes

Proof is the bottom line for everyone

Half moon hiding in the clouds, my darling

And the sky is flecked with signs of hope

Raise your weary wings against the rain, my baby

Wash your tangled curls with gambler's soap

Proof

Some people gonna call you up

Tell you something that you already know

Sane people go crazy on you

Say ''No man, that was not

The deal we made

I got to, I got to, I got to''

Faith

Faith is an island in the setting sun

But proof, yes

Proof is the bottom line for everyone

The CoastVer letra 7:04

letra de The Coast
A family of musicians took shelter for the night

In the little harbor church of St. Cecilia

Two guitars, bata, bass drum and tambourine

Rose of Jericho and Bougainvillea

This is a lonely life

Sorrows everywhere you turn

Afd that's worth something

When you think about it

That's worth some money

That's worth something

When you think about it

That is worth some money

A trip to the market

A trip into the pearl gray morning sunlight

That settles over Washington

A trip to the market

A trip around the world

Where the evening meal

Is negotiable, if there is one.

This is a lonely-lone, lonely life

Sorrows everywhere you turn

And that's worth something

When you think about it

That's worth some money

That's worth something

When you think about it

That is worth some money

To prove that I love you

Because I believe in you

Summer skies, stars are falling

All along the injured coast

If I have money

If I have children

Summer skies, stars are falling

All along the injured coast

Oo-wah Oo-wah Doo-wop a Doo-wah

Summer skies and stars are falling

All along the injured coast

Oo-wah Oo-wah Doo-wop a Doo-wah

Summer skies and the stars are falling

All along the injured coast

We are standing in the sunlight

The early morning sunlight

In the harbor church of St. Cecilia

To praise a soul's returning to the earth

To the rose of Jericho and the Bougainvillea

To prove that I love you

Because I believe in you

Summer skies, stars are falling

All along the injured coast

If I have money

If I have children

Summer skies, stars are falling

All along the injured coast

If I have weaknesses

Don't let them blind me now

Summer skies, stars are falling

All along the injured coast

Oo-wah Oo-wah

Doo Wop a Doo Wah

Summer skies, stars are falling

Leaving the shadow of the valley behind me now

All along the injured coast

Ooh-wah Oow-wah

Doo Wop a Doo Wah

Summer skies and stars are falling

All along the injured coast

Ooh-wah Ooh-wah

Doo Wop a Doo Wah
GracelandVer letra 5:30

[X]
letra de Graceland
The Mississippi Delta was shining

Like a National guitar

I am following the river

Down the highway

Through the cradle of the civil war

I'm going to Graceland

Graceland

In Memphis Tennessee

I'm going to Graceland

Poorboys and Pilgrims with families

And we are going to Graceland

My traveling companion is nine years old

He is the child of my first marriage

But I've reason to believe

We both will be received

In Graceland

She comes back to tell me she's gone

As if I didn't know that

As if I didn't know my own bed

As if I'd never noticed

The way she brushed her hair from her forehead

And she said losing love

Is like a window in your heart

Everybody sees you're blown apart

Everybody sees the wind blow

I'm going to Graceland

Memphis Tennessee

I'm going to Graceland

Poorboys and Pilgrims with families

And we are going to Graceland

And my traveling companions

Are ghosts and empty sockets

I'm looking at ghosts and empties

But I've reason to believe

We all will be received

In Graceland

There is a girl in New York City

Who calls herself the human trampoline

And sometimes when I'm falling, flying

Or tumbling in turmoil I say

Oh, so this is what she means

She means we're bouncing into Graceland

And I see losing love

Is like a window in your heart

Everybody sees you're blown apart

Everybody feels the wind blow

In Graceland, in Graceland

I'm going to Graceland

For reasons I cannot explain

There's some part of me wants to see

Graceland

And I may be obliged to defend

Every love, every ending

Or maybe there's no obligations now

Maybe I've a reason to believe

We all will be received

In Graceland

letra de You Can Call Me Al
A man walks down the street

He says, "Why am I soft in the middle now?

Why am I soft in the middle?

The rest of my life is so hard

I need a photo opportunity

I want a shot at redemption

Don't want to end up a cartoon

In a cartoon graveyard"

Bonedigger, bonedigger

Dogs in the moonlight

Far away my well-lit door

Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly

Get these mutts away from me

You know I don't find this stuff

Amusing anymore

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can be your long-lost pal

I can call you Betty

And Betty, when you call me

You can call me Al

A man walks down the street

He says, "Why am I short of attention?

Got a short little span of attention

And, woe my nights are so long

Where's my wife and family?

What if I die here?

Who'll be my role model

Now that my role model is

Gone gone?"

He ducked back down the alley

With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl

All along along

There were incidents and accidents

There were hints and allegations

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can be your long-lost pal

I can call you Betty

And Betty, when you call me

You can call me Al

Call me Al

A man walks down the street

It's a street in a strange world

Maybe it's the third world

Maybe it's his first time around

He doesn't speak the language

He holds no currency

He is a foreign man

He is surrounded by the sound, the sound

Cattle in the marketplace

Scatter-lings and orphanages

He looks around, around

He sees angels in the architecture

Spinning in infinity

He says, "Amen!" and "Hallelujah!"

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can be your long-lost pal

I can call you Betty

And Betty, when you call me

You can call me Al

Call me

Na na na na …

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can call you Betty

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can call you Betty

If you'll be my bodyguard ...

letra de Still Crazy After All These Years
I met my old lover

On the street last night

She seemed so glad to see me

I just smiled

And we talked about some old times

And we drank ourselves some beers

Still crazy after all these years

Still crazy after all these years

I'm not the kind of man

Who tends to socialize

I seem to lean on

Old familiar ways

And I ain't no fool for love songs

That whisper in my ears

Still crazy after all these years

Still crazy after all these years

Four in the morning

Crapped out

Yawning

Longing my life away

I'll never worry

Why should I?

It's all gonna fade

Now I sit by my window

And I watch the cars

I fear I'll do some damage

One fine day

But I would not be convicted

By a jury of my peers

Still crazy after all these years

Still crazy

Still crazy

Still crazy after all these years

letra de Loves Me Like A Rock
When I was a little boy

And the Devil would call my name

I'd say "now who do ...

Who do you think you're fooling?"

I'm a consecrated boy

Singer in a Sunday choir

My mama loves, she loves me

She gets down on her knees and hugs me

She loves me like a rock

She rocks me like the rock of ages

And she loves me

When I was grown to be a man

And the Devil would call my name

I'd say "now who do . ..

Who do you think you're fooling?"

I'm a consummated man

I can snatch a little purity

My mama loves me, she loves me

She gets down on her knees and hugs me

She loves me like a rock

She rocks me like the rock of ages

And she loves me

If I was President

And the Congress call my name

I'd say "who do ...

Who do you think you're fooling?"

I've got the Presidential Seal

I'm up on the Presidential Podium

My mama loves me

She loves me

She gets down on her knees and hugs me

And she loves me like a rock

She rocks me like the rock of ages

And she loves me

She loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me

(a-wa) O kodwa u zo-nge li-sa namhlange

(a-wa a-wa) Si-bona kwenze ka kanjani

(a-wa a-wa) Amanto mbazane ayeza

She's a rich girl

She don't try to hide it

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

He's a poor boy

Empty as a pocket

Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose

Sing Ta na na

Ta na na na

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

People say she's crazy

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

Well that's one way to lose these

Walking blues

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

She was physically forgotten

Then she slipped into my pocket

With my car keys

She said you've taken me for granted

Because I please you

Wearing these diamonds

And I could say Oo oo oo

As if everybody knows

What I'm talking about

As if everybody would know

Exactly what I was talking about

Talking about diamonds on the soles of her shoes

She makes the sign of a teaspoon

He makes the sign of a wave

The poor boy changes clothes

And puts on after-shave

To compensate for his ordinary shoes

And she said honey take me dancing

But they ended up by sleeping

In a doorway

By the bodegas and the lights on

Upper Broadway

Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes

And I could say Oo oo oo

As if everybody here would know

What I was talking about

I mean everybody here would know exactly

What I was talking about

Talking about diamonds

People say I'm crazy

I got diamonds on the soles of my shoes

Well that's one way to lose

These walking blues

Diamonds on the soles of your shoes
Hearts And BonesVer letra 6:17

letra de Hearts And Bones
One and one-half wandering Jews

Free to wander wherever they choose

Are travelling together

In the Sangre de Cristo

The Blood of Christ Mountains

Of New Mexico

On the last leg of the journey

They started a long time ago

The arc of a love affair

Rainbows in the high desert air

Mountain passes slipping into stones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Thinking back to the season before

Looking back through the cracks in the door

Two people were married

The act was outrageous

The bride was contagious

She burned like a bride

These events may have had some effect

On the man with the girl by his side

The arc of a love affair

His hands rolling down her hair

Love like lightning shaking till it moans

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

And whoa whoa whoa

She said why?

Why don't we drive through the night

And we'll wake up down in Mexico

Oh I

I don't know nothin' about nothin'

About Mexico

And tell me why

Why won't you love me

For who I am

Where I am

He said:

'Cause that's not the way the world is baby

This is how I love you, baby

This is how I love you, baby

One and one-half wandering Jews

Returned to their natural coasts

To resume old acquaintances

Step out occasionally

And speculate who had been damaged the most

Easy time will determine if these consolations

Will be their reward

The arc of a love affair

Waiting to be restored

You take two bodies and you twirl them into one

Their hearts and their bones

And they won't come undone

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

letra de Late In The Evening
The first thing I remember

I was lying in my bed

Couldn't have been no more than one or two

And I remember there's a radio

Comin' from the room next door

And my mother laughed the way some ladies do

When it's late in the evening

All the music seeping through

The next thing I remember

I am walking down the street

I'm feeling all right

I'm with my boys, I'm with my troops, yeah

And down along the avenue

Some guys were shootin' pool

And I heard the sound of a cappella groups, yeah

Singing late in the evening

And all the girls out on the stoops, yeah

Then I learned to play some lead guitar

I was underage in this funky bar

And I stepped outside to smoke myself a "J"

And when I came back to the room

Everybody just seemed to move

And I turned my amp up loud and I began to play

And it was late in the evening

And I blew that room away

The first thing I remember

When you came into my life

I said I'm gonna get that girl no matter what I do

Well I guess I'd been in love before

And once or twice I been on the floor

But I never loved no one the way that I loved you

And it was late in the evening

And all the music seeping through
AmericaVer letra 3:22

letra de America
Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together

I've got some real estate here in my bag

So we bought a pack of cigarettes, and Mrs. Wagner pies

And we walked off to look for America

Cathy, I said, as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburg

Michigan seems like a dream to me now

It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw

And I've come to look for America

Laughin' on the bus, playing games with the faces

She said the man in the gaberdine suit was a spy

I said be careful, his bowtie is really a camera

Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat

We smoked the last one an hour ago

So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine

And the moon rose over an open field

Cathy, I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping

I'm empty and I'm aching and I don't know why

Countin' the cars on the New Jersey turnpike

They've all come to look for America, all come to look for America

[Instrumental break]

Countin' the cars on the New Jersey turnpike

They've all come to look for America, all come to look for America

All come to look for America
The BoxerVer letra 4:18

letra de The Boxer
I am just a poor boy

Though my story's seldom told

I have squandered my resistance

For a pocketful of mumbles

Such are promises

All lies and jest

Still, a man hears what he wants to hear

And disregards the rest

When I left my home

And my family

I was no more than a boy

In the company of strangers

In the quiet of the railway station

Running scared

Laying low

Seeking out the poorer quarters

Where the ragged people go

Looking for the places

Only they would know

Lie-la-lie...

Asking only workman's wages

I come looking for a job

But I get no offers

Just a come-on from the whores

On Seventh Avenue

I do declare

There were times when I was so lonesome

I took some comfort there

Lie-la-lie...

Now the years are rolling by me

They are rockin' evenly

I am older than I once was

And younger than I'll be

But that's not unusual

No it isn't strange

After changes upon changes

We are more or less the same

After changes

We are more or less the same

Lie-la-lie...

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes

And wishing I was gone

Going home

Where the New York City winters

Aren't bleeding me

Leading me

Going home

In the clearing stands a boxer

And a fighter by his trade

And he carries the reminders

Of ev'ry glove that laid him down

Or cut him till he cried out

In his anger and his shame

"I am leaving, I am leaving"

But the fighter still remains

Lie-la-lie...

letra de The Sound Of Silence
Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again

Because a vision softly creeping, left its seeds while I was sleeping

And the vision that was planted in my brain, still remains

Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone, narrow streets of cobblestone

Neath the halo of a streetlamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light, split the night

And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw, ten thousand people, maybe more

People talking without speaking, people hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never shared, and no one dared

To stir the sound of silence

Fool, said I, you do not know, silence, like a cancer, grows

Hear my words and I might teach you, take my arms then I might reach you

But my words, like silent raindrops fell, and echoed in the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they'd made

And the sign flashed its warning in the words that it was forming

And the sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls

And tenement halls, and whispered in the sounds of silence
