Testo Spark - Michael McDermott
Testo della canzone Spark (Michael McDermott), tratta dall'album Last Chance Lounge
Some doors seem like they're always shut
The hand of fate still seems corrupt
When you're caught on the wrong side of your own generation
Thunder cracks like midnight barks
Intoxication, the slipstream arcs
Does the temple of your soul need restoration?
Gareth lived here his whole damn life
His job, his lover, his complex wife
But he said, "I've never even thought of leaving"
He said, "Believe it or not, I'm quite content
Every now and again I'll kneel and repent
But I never seem to find that feeling of healing, baby"
Spark the heart in a godless night
Spark the dark 'til it turns to light
Spark the colors in the eyes of blame
Spark the embers until they turn to flame
From the small towns where the dreams don't hide
To the big city where they do collide
To these hotel rooms where the clocks have ceased their ticking
He dreamt of Paris and MTV
Ireland and the BBC
But now that dream, well it only makes him sickened
No one knows his name or even cares
As he stumbles drunk up and down those stairs
Well the spirit's fire that burned within is tempered
He's haunted by every train running south
And every lover that he brought to his mouth
For the secrets that may soon be rendered or surrendered, baby
Spark the heart in a godless night
Spark the dark 'til it turns to light
Spark the colors in the eyes of blame
Spark the embers until they turn to flame
She dyed her hair since the last time we spoke
I got her a drink and I lit up her smoke
And she said, "I don't know how I wound up so defeated"
And she said, "These pictures and this place always make me so sad
Make me think about the family I never had
But I hate the fact that I'm always feeling cheated"
And the jukebox played "Your Cheatin' Heart"
You can't see the wounds as well when you're in the dark
She said, "I'll be right back" but I knew she was lying
And me, I knew I needed different company
Those kind of talks always get to me
The place smelled like everyone was dying or trying, baby
Spark the heart in a godless night
Spark the dark 'til it turns to light
Spark the colors in the eyes of blame
Spark the embers until they turn to flame
Spark
Spark
Spark
