paroles de chanson Idiot Prayer (Live at Alexandra Palace, 2020) - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

They're taking me down, my friend
As they usher me off to the end
Will I bid you adieu?
Will I be seeing you soon?
If what they say 'round here is true
Then we'll meet again
Me and you
My time is at hand, my dove
They're gonna pass me to that room above
Is heaven just for victims, dear?
Where only those in pain go?
Well, it takes two to tango
And we'll meet again, my love
I know
If you're in heaven then you'll forgive me, dear
'Cause that's what they do up there
If you're in hell, what can I say?
You probably deserved it anyway
I guess I'm gonna find out any day
And we'll meet again
There'll be hell to pay
Your face comes to me from the depths, dear
Your silent mouth, mouths, "Yes, dear"
Dark red and big with blood
They're gonna shot me down, my love
They're gonna launch me into the stars
While all things come to pass
Glory, hallelujah
This prayer is for you, my love
Send on the wings of a dove
An idiot prayer of empty words
Love dearest strictly for the birds
Which get what we deserve
My little snow white dove
Rest too short
