מילים לשיר I've Been Delivered – Wallflowers

I could break free from the
wood of a coffin
But nothin's hard as
if I need
Gettin' free from places I've already been
I've been wasteof my mind
In the engine
in the burnin' meadows
In cold December
shootin' fire from the hose 'cause I'm not comin' home
Now turn off your lights
'til I'm delivered for the first time I was firstthat follows in rows
down a narrow cold black river
movin' slow faceless shadows
I would move swift when
the sounds of a trumpet would blow
I've been the strings
I've been the puppet
I know the vacant face it brings Now the bells of curfew
They may ring before I'm through
But soon I'll be delivered for the first time
You might keep clean
in the back of an angel motorcade
It doesn't matter who walks in
You'll just wake up
you know, the joke is still the same
like a disposable lover
decomposed
I've been gone
I've been remembered
I've been a ghost
I've been alive So now, if downtown explodes
I'll still be on this road
'til I'm delivered for the first time I have drawn blood
from the neckline
when vampires were in fashion
You know I'd even learn
If I thought I could fit in
to cut my throat
'Cause I, I once heard that you gotta learn
how to blend in to this mess
Where nothin's hard
nothin's precious
and nothin's smooth or flawless Now, no more amused
just screaming to be delivered
for the first time Now I'm 10 miles in the deep
Looking back, towards a long white beach
burnin' up into yellow flames
and mighty blue sea And I just wave back
like a little boy up on a pony
in a show
something this complex
'cause I can't fix
any more than I can build a rose So just keep on letting go
'cause I must be close
to being delivered for the first time
Now I'd rather bleed out a long stream from being lonely
and feel blessed
Well than drown, laying face down
in a puddle of respect
I was once lost
in the corridors of the arena
I've been the bull
in blindfolds
I've been the whip
I just pulled down the matador 'cause I'm comin' home
I've been delivered for the first timeSo now, turn on your lights.
