Crooked Fingers - Big Darkness lyrics

Dead in the sun And covered with glue There is a town where nothing moves Nobody works And nobody plays And all of their dreams Have melted away All of their hopes have come and gone Even the vultures have moved on They say a hero's coming soon With ivory lungs like huge balloons There ain't no moon And there ain't no stars Over the land of endless scars Covered in brown And coming undone We are what he will not become Only a run down rusty still Runs through the town that has no hill But they say a hero's coming soon He's coming to take a giant breath of air Into his lungs ang blow away the sun (Chorus) I saw a vulture swarming up above a dying crowd Above the villains and the heroes and the down and out To snage the carrion and leeches up to snatch their claim Before the darkness has a chance to wash it all away Cause' if the evening ever comes maybe then something's right Cause' in the dark even the blind can see a speck of light I'm waitin' for a sign to show but it don't ever come I'm waitin' for the dark to fall and wash away the sun There ain't no heat And there ain't no lies Only the black hole of our eyes Cuttin' it over crowded room Waiting for it's sad turn to lose But out in the distance there's a glow That nobody sees, so nobody knows Well they say a hero's coming soon He's coming to take a giant breath of air Into his lungs and blow away the sun (Chorus)
