THIS BED OF LONELINESS
(music and lyrics: Dave Shadow)
You watched me dance
Shrouded in a cloud of brightness
A blurred image
In the light of thousand candles
You want me now
Like I was in the early days
You watch me now
like I'm dying without a trace
(chorus)
I don't know why
I don't know when
I lost my inner cognizance
What have I done
To bring myself
on to this bed of loneliness
No
don't care
for me babe
for this emptyness
Oh no
don't cry
for me darling
for this suffering
A silent frame
Made by my dying whispers
I want to abstein
From fighting the world like a drifter
You want me now
To react to this apathy
Demure and cowed
Since I've got nothing left to feel
