Queens of the Stone Age — A Song for the Deaf

Текст песни: A Song for the Deaf

[Spoken Intro: Natasha Shneider]
A song for the deaf, that is, for you

[Verse 1: Josh Homme]
Nobody’s coming down the hall
Nobody echoes in my head
Broken reflection, outta luck
Nobody ever needed it

[Chorus 1: Josh Homme, Mark Lanegan & Both]
I got what was
I want to take what’s left
(Ready now)

[Verse 2: Josh Homme]
Beautiful senses are gone
Canary in a gilded cage
Singin'
Sweet, soft and low
I will poison you all
Come closer, racin' to your tongue

[Chorus 2: Josh Homme, Mark Lanegan & Both]
I got what was
Want to take what’s left
No talk will cure
What’s lost, or save what’s left
(For the deaf)
[Bridge: Mark Lanegan]
The blind can go get fucked
Lie beside the ditch
This halo 'round my neck
Has torn out every stitch

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3: Josh Homme & Mark Lanegan]
Who are you hiding? Is it safe for the deaf?
Beautiful cancer, infiltrate then forget
Yeah, I saw you coming and I heard not a thing
A mistake not to listen
When I knew where you’d been

[Chorus 2: Josh Homme, Mark Lanegan Both]
And I got what was
I want to take what’s left
No talk will cure
What’s lost, or save what’s left
(For the deaf)

[Spoken Outro: Dave Catching]
