R.E.M., Patti Smith - Blue lyrics
[R.E.M., Patti Smith - Blue lyrics]
Yellow circus left the stakes
Of broken ropes, useless mud
The ties that bind, ha ha i can be bad poet
Street poet, shit poet kind poet too
Subway, almost 4AM Halloween Night
Had enough to drink to make my own party
All my fellow riders in half costume
Half asleep half silly, gone to seed
I don't mark my time with dates
Holidays, fate, wisdom, luck, karma
Or whatevers convenient
I am made by my times i am a creation of now
Shaken with the cracks and crevices
I'm not giving up easy i will not fold
I don't have much but what I have is gold
I saw your face
I sing in platinum, I dress in brass
Good, lifting snow i eat a zinc, let it pass
Compare a toast, I like that
I understand courage ever lifting smoke
I still roll with the shout of
A cab driver's attitude today
I try to see outside myself
I understand the eyes excuse all the highs
Sorry, I am sorry, ha ha boy of the moon
I like you, love you, every coast of you
I'm not your face
I've seen your eddies and tides
And hurricanes and cyclones
Low ebb tide and high, full moon
Up close and distant, I read you
Like the sky, the sea, the ocean, the sun
The moon blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue
Naked and blue naked and blue
Breathing with you, touch, change, shift
Allow air, window open Drift, drift away
Into now revenge you
I want Whitman proud, Patti Lee proud
My brothers proud
My sisters proud, I want me, I want it all
I want sensational, irresistible
This is my time and I am thrilled to be alive
Living, blessed, I understand
Twentieth century, collapse into now
Cinderella boy, you've lost your shoe
Cinderella boy, your coach await's
(Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue)
A sun makes shadows all over your face
(Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue)
As you sit naked and blue into me
