Testo Candy Jail - Silver Jews
Testo della canzone Candy Jail (Silver Jews), tratta dall'album Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea
Pain works on a sliding scale
So does pleasure in a candy jail
True love doesn't come around any more than fate allows
On a Monday in Ft. Lauderdale
I came all this way to see your grave
To see your life as written paraphrased
I have tried be it is written in the furnace of affliction
This is what you couldn't face
Life in a candy jail with peppermint bars
Peanut brittle bunk beds and marshmallow walls
Where the guards are gracious and the grounds are grand
The warden keeps the data on your favorite brands
Jelly beans and cookie dough
Country restroom on a radio
I got a number on my name
It's hard to rise above the shame
I'm a branded man made in the mold
These terms engulf the waking mind
Like cherry, grape and lemon-lime
Like candy corn and licorice
Like bubble gum and Swedish fish
It happens to me all the time
Living in a candy jail with peppermint bars
Peanut brittle bunk beds and marshmallow walls
Where the guards are gracious and the grounds are grand
The warden really listens and he understands
