Testo The Light - The Stranglers

Testo della canzone The Light (The Stranglers), tratta dall'album Coup De Grace

Predestination
Not a thing that you'd plan
Misunderstanding
Or a line in the sand
Thunder and lightning
Did God have a hand?
Wasn't it frightening?
Wasn't it sad?
Would it have mattered
If the timing was bad?
Something surprising
Or nothing so sad
A night at the whiskey
Or was I just mad?
Was it intended?
Why was I so glad?
Was it so lovely?
Did it seem real?
Was there a purpose?
I just can't tell you
It was always darkness
Time was never on your side
That's the rock of ages
And I could tell you why
I'd talk about the daytime
And tell you about the night
You have to live in darkness
To get some peace of mind
Don't try to make the darkness bright
Night will always dim the light
Something isn't happening
Nothing in life
I've been awaiting
Waiting on death
Is it on purpose?
Who knows if you'd mind?
I'm biting my nails
Right through to the bone
I seem to be dripping
My blood on the phone
It was always darkness
Time was never on your side
That's the rock of ages
And I could tell you why
I'd talk about the daytime
And tell you about the night
You have to live in darkness
To get some peace of mind
Don't try to make the darkness bright
Night will always dim the light
If I could tell
I might as well
If it was heard
The honest words
But you should know
Like no one knows
The words just can't be heard
Now it doesn't matter
It's too late to care
But something you see will
Leave up in the air
You can't criticize it
It wouldn't be fair
You couldn't do that
You'd be such a bore
It's only the thinking
That altered the score
It was always darkness
Time was never on your side
That's the rock of ages
And I could tell you why
I'd talk about the daytime
And tell you about the night
You have to live in darkness
To get some peace of mind
Don't try to make the darkness bright
Night will always dim the light
