Текст песни Tomis - Augie March

Tomis

The highlight of a low life in the city of rock and rain
Being told by some new emperor how to better clothe my shame —
Six years to put it together, six more to pull it apart and
I won’t go back but I haven’t left yet
If you set your mind there’s many ways to get to…
It’s a hot headed mountain wears a cap of cooling snow
An agent of calamity that stays the domino
The ground is cold and stony here but I can make it grow something
Happily no vision of me
No rosy bed, no weed, no tree
A calling of time on this branch of the line
I hopped the train and shuffled down the lane to…
Nobody tells you which way to go
Animals leap across your shadow
Makes a change from the preening shallows where you’re lucky if you know
One son of a gun among the sons of bitches
One white witch in the coven of witches
Who won’t tell me what I deserve to get
Who’ve bought my shoes but haven’t paid for them yet
Or walked a metre let alone a mile
Who chose to thieve, I chose exile
