We Came Through - Scott Walker[00:00:00]
[00:00:01]
We came through[00:00:04]
We came riding through like warriors from afar[00:00:05]
Our black horses danced upon[00:00:09]
The graves of yesterday's desires[00:00:11]
Haunted by our visions framed in fire[00:00:14]
I greet you for you still believe[00:00:19]
In what's behind a door[00:00:22]
You've seen the children freeze upon their knees[00:00:25]
And praying to the wind[00:00:27]
Descend their grey madonnas back again[00:00:29]
Fire the guns and salute the men[00:00:34]
Who died for freedom's sake[00:00:37]
And we'll weep tonight but we won't lie awake[00:00:40]
Gazing up at statues dressed in stars[00:00:44]
We won't dream for they don't come true for us[00:00:48]
Not anymore[00:00:51]
They've run afar to hide in caves[00:00:53]
With haggard burning eyes[00:00:56]
Their icy voices tear our hearts like knives[00:00:57]
[00:01:03]
We came through[00:01:06]
Like the Gothic monsters perched on Notre Dame[00:01:09]
We observe the naked souls of gutters pouring forth mankind[00:01:13]
Smothered in an avalanche of time[00:01:17]
And we're giants as we watch our kings[00:01:22]
And countries raise their shields[00:01:25]
And Guevara dies encased in their ideals[00:01:28]
And as Luther King's predictions fade from view[00:01:32]
We came through[00:01:37]
