Testo Legend - Roy Harper
Testo della canzone Legend (Roy Harper), tratta dall'album Sophisticated Beggar
I hear the songbirds singing in the trees above my bed
In the valley of the shadow of the sea of living dead
I see the same old smells aboard my ship of shapelessness
Meandering suspended in amorphous tastelessness
I hear the happy people striking down their matchless road
The false teeth and the colour partly sharing half the load
I know I cannot ask them so I leave their eyes to say
I know the way to Mount Street, babe, but I just don't know the way
I see the hollow buildings hanging in the winter sun
Throwing empty shadows that hide the hollow men
The world just isn't real, it's built on timeless timeless time
On landmarks in the desert wastes of multicoloured crime
The maps stuck in the tube trains will tell you where you're going
They'll also tell you practically everything worth knowing
So if anybody asks me, I'll say take a few soft sodas
If you don't you stand the dirty chance of dying stone cold sober
And as I hear you breathing life's last distant compliment
I know I can't have said much of what I really meant
The sky dissolves the sky and the snowflakes face to face
And everything's just everything because everything just is
