paroles de chanson These Are The Fables - The New Pornographers

In coral and gray, in submarine chambers
One day it swam for the light
The jewels that lit the cities that float there
Cities in circles drawn perfect, complete
Holding the secrets on my street
My street
My street

So come in and play the song of the siren
It′s commonplace, you hear the voice rise
In one wave and crash on your doorstep
Making the circle here perfect, complete
These are the fables on my street

10, 000 dancing girls kicking cans 'cross the sky, no reason why
Why ask to pay yourself for the call of the wild?
You found this child, so raise him

And wind your way back, come back to the river
The currents speed by and hope the men fear
Hammer comes down so hard on the evening
Cracking the dawn of your days are repeat
These are the fables on my street
My street
My street

Heaven shook Hell, and down from its pockets
The ring in your bell, it fell through your hands
Laying at your feet, the doors that won′t open
Marking the journey of our friends complete
These are the fables on my street
My street

My street
My street
Lay down in glory, you're not alone

My street
My street
Lay down in glory, you're not alone
