A Dead Man's Song - Chamber - L'Orchestre De Chambre Noir

I don’t know how long

this place’s been my home

I don’t know how long

I’ve been trying to write this song

the boys are all gone

oh-since 1981

they’ve left me all alone

I’ve been trying

without a reason

just floating

with the stream of my heart

or what’s been

left of it All I ever wanted

was the ultimate song

pure, true fulfillment of the heart

I’ve heard a million songs

I’ve seen a thousand bands

generations came along

shared my room, my house

but none’s ever noticed

me or my craft

they were too busy

with themselves

I’ve been trying

to get trough

but these mortals

were so ignorant

who needs

a dead man’s song

Once I had a love

who inspired all my songs

now, I’ve found you

would you sing along

to tell the audience

oh-about 81

about me and my room

I’ve been trying

to escape

but for me every exit

is an entrance to this room

where they’ve left me all alone.
