Track Three

Scott Walker

    Continues after the ad

    Delayed in the headlong
    Resembled to breaking-point
    I swear you never slept at night
    When the growing is slow
    After me, I'm no man's son
    Run out of recognise
    The blood of our split back without his prisoner
    The distance rigged in his eyes

    Rock of cast-offs, bury me
    Hide my soul, sink us free
    Rock of cast-offs, bury me
    Hide my soul, pray us free

    Continues after the ad

    From the host of late-comers
    A miracle enters the streets
    Shining with rain
    He is shaking to wash the murder away
    The shadow of the son made the son a shadow
    It's never night when I die
    That desert clouds under, and so Lord lightens
    Sleepers wait there with wounds in their sides

    In the strength of the crime
    You sing like a stranger
    And your failure fulfills
    Your most secret defeat
    After me, I'm no man's son
    Run out of recognise
    A life of it's own lays down the horizon
    The distance rigged in it's eyes

    Rock of cast-offs, bury me
    Hide my soul, sink us free
    Rock of cast-offs, bury me
    Hide my soul, pray us free
