King Street

作词 : Stuart James Larsen

作曲 : Stuart James Larsen

I'm wandering these city streets

There's nothing here for me

All i see is people running round

Buying shit they don't need

There's a man begging down on king street

And he grabs me by the wrist

He says 'son, you know what the biggest killer in this world is?

It's not money, not drugs, not guns.. he said it's

Loneliness..

And it's killing me..

Oh this loneliness

It's bringing me down

And he'll sleep where the darkness falls

He won't get no curtain calls

And he's only got one pair of shoes

But he's got more serenity

Than the rest of humanity

They've been tricked into waiting in queues

And his father is dying

He's got something inside of him

It makes him feel more wrong than right

And his mother'd be lying

If she said she weren't crying

Herself to sleep every night..

Every night..

He sees a woman waiting at the station steps

Her conversation fills the air

She's telling the world about the trouble she's seen

But no one can hear

He wanders in to a church with it's doors wide open

He's welcomed in with a half hearted smile

Some guy tells him he's found all the answers

To things like money and drugs and guns..

Old man says 'what about this loneliness?

Cos it's killing me..

Oh this loneliness

It's bringing me down..

I'll sleep where the darkness falls

I won't get no curtain calls

And i've only got one pair of shoes

But i've got more serenity

Than the rest of humanity

They've been tricked into waiting in queues

And my father is dying

He's got something inside of him

It makes him feel more wrong than right

And my mother'd be lying

If she said she weren't crying

Herself to sleep everynight..

And my father is dying

He's got something inside of him

It makes him feel more wrong than right

And my mother'd be lying

If she said she weren't crying

Herself to sleep everynight..

And my father is dying

He's got something inside of him

It makes him feel more wrong than right

And my mother'd be lying

If she said she weren't crying

Herself to sleep everynight..

Everynight..

Everynight..

Everynight..

I'm wandering these city streets

There's nothing here for me
