Bonnie "Prince" Billy

No Bad News
Trouble, more trouble can you get anymore Slow bubble boiling on the bedroom floor Lonely ain't lonely, someone calling at the door Someone lovely and she's bringing bad news She clenches and she cries and she lays on the stairs Pounding on the earth and yanking at her hairs And showing such fear at being found unawares To be here and be bringing bad news Well, something bad happens and a lot of people go Bad themselves, that's how awful it is Turning half the heart into something hard and dark And she had to bring here this Well, she's told, « Hold your buttons and look at the sky Someone will fix things if you let your face dry Keep your face near the earth and your heart beat high And you may transcend the bad news » Well, something bad happens and a lot of people go Bad themselves, that's how awful it is Turning half the heart into something hard and dark And she had to bring here this For all hammers and nails SongtexteFor all leaves and winds For all love ambitions And enemies and friends She shakes her face so fiercely that all her features go She lays like a monkey unclothed in the snow And her voice it decays and before it does she goes, « I will never again deliver bad news » Something bad happens and a lot of people go Bad themselves, that's how awful it is Turning half the heart into something hard and dark And she had to bring here this Mm, hey little bird - hey little bird Thank you for not letting go of me when I let go of you Hey little bird - hey little bird Thank you for not letting go of me when I let go of you (Hey little bird - hey little bird) Thank you for not (letting go of me when I let go of you) Aus Songtexte Mania
