nerina pallot – damascus – remastered lyrics
years ago, you said to me
“i think i’m losing the fight
or the fight’s losing me, i’m not certain,”
and here we are-the closing scene
and all the house lights come up
oh, the falling of our final curtain…
i’ve played a role for so long that i’ve forgotten myself
but i said i’d be there and i’m keeping my word
you’ve played yourself so well
and now i want to be you:
a great imitation of losing my nerve
so, it’s over
and everything is wrong, everything has gone
and i know that everything means nothing
on the road to damascus they fell
i saw the light-i saw the light!
but hey, it never saw me
oh, conversion has just left me heathen
and we could wait a thousand years
perhaps a million or more
if it’s worth waiting for, but i’m leaving
and so to a mecca of earthly delights-
depression is only desire deprived
once more unto the breach and f-ck my getting it right
we’ve died for so long, let’s just get out alive
’cause it’s over
and everything is wrong, everything has gone
and i know that everything means nothing
oh, it’s over
and i don’t want to fight, i don’t want to be right
i know that everything means nothing
on the road to damascus they fell
well i’ve been to damascus…it’s h-ll…
h-ll is where i’m gonna be
the devil my intimate friend
and h-ll is other people’s hearts
and knowing that everything must end
oh, it’s over…
and i don’t want to fight, i don’t want to be right
i know that everything means nothing
on the road to damascus they fell
well, i’ve been to damascus as well
