Lou Reed - Sword Of Damocles Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I see The Sword of Damocles is right above your head
  • They're trying a new treatment to get you out of bed
  • But radiation kills both bad and good
  • it can not differentiate
  • So to cure you they must kill you
  • The Sword of Damocles hangs above your head
  • Now I have seen lots of peoples die
  • from car crashes or drugs
  • Last night on 33rd st. I saw a kid get hit by a bus
  • Bus this drawn out torture over which part of you lives
  • is very hard to take
  • To cure you they must kill you
  • The Sword of Damocles above your head
  • That mix of morphine and dexedrine
  • we use it on the street
  • It kills the pain and keeps you up
  • your very soul to keep
  • But this guessing game has its own rules
  • the good don't always win
  • and might makes right
  • The Sword of Damocles
  • is hanging above your head
  • It seems everything's done that must be done
  • from over here though things don't seem fair
  • But there are things that we can't know
  • maybe there's something over there
  • Some other world that we don't know about
  • I know you hate that mystic shit
  • It's just another way of seeing
  • The Sword of Damocles above your head
