Candyland — текст песни (Kristin Hersh)

I lost a boy

And now I look for him

Through every window

And behind every door

My son went down



This isnt trauma

Its not even drama anymore

I was born

With a sad song in my mouth

He gave me a reason to sing it



Its like this boy

Took all my clear cold nights

Left me hot and dry

And when he falls

I cant hear it



This isnt vodka

Its not even chocolate

I dont know how long I can stay straight

And still see straight

He gave me a reason to say it



Dont wait for pain

To find out you exist

Dont look for shame

Your better off without it

Life is unkind



This isnt candyland

I know you dont understand

So nice not to be ashamed

So nice not to be creeped out

Ice is unkind

till it freezes your enemies

Life is unkind

till it burns up your memories

Life is unkind



He gave me a reason

To live it
