I see a darkness

"I see a darkness" - bonnie "prince" billy

Well, you're my friend
And can you see
Many times we've been out drinking
Many times we've shared our thoughts
But did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got
Well you know I have a love, a love for everyone I know
And you know I have a drive to live I won't let go
But can you see this opposition, comes rising up sometimes
That dreadfull imposition, comes blacking in my mind

And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
Did you know how much I love you
Is there hope that somehow you
Can save me from this darkness

Well I hope that someday buddy
We'll have peace in our lives
Together or apart
Alone or with our wives
And we can stop our whoring
And pull the smiles inside
And light it up forever
And never go to sleep
My best unbeaten brother
This isn't all I see

I know, I see a darkness
I know, I see a darkness
I know, I see a darkness
I know, I see a darkness
Did you know how much I love you
Is there hope that somehow you
Can save me from this darkness

a versão ao vivo perde um bocado para o original, portanto, se puderem, tentem ouvir o original. e já que estão com a "mão na massa", há músicas muito interessantes de bonnie "prince" billy para ouvir, como "you will miss me when I burn", "gulf shores", "beast for thee", "bed is for sleeping", "hard life", "wolf among wolves", "madeleine-mary", etc..
