sparklehorse – london lyrics
Loading...
(words by william blake [1757 – 1827])
i wander through each chartered street,
near where the chartered thames does flow,
and mark in every face i meet
marks of weakness, marks of woe
in every cry of every man,
in every infant’s cry of fear,
in every voice, in every ban,
the mind-forged manacles i hear.
how the chimney-sweeper’s cry
every blackening church appalls,
and the hapless soldier’s sigh
runs in blood down palace walls
but most, through midnight streets i hear
how the youthful harlot’s curse
blasts the new-born infant’s tear
and blights with plagues the marriage he-rs-
i wander through each chartered street,
near where the chartered thames does flow,
and mark in every face i meet
marks of weakness, marks of woe
