David Bowie

Dead Man Walking

AlphabetLyrics.com


He swivels his head
Tears his eyes from the screen
As his past puts him back
In atlantic city
There's not even a demon
In heaven or hell
Is it all just human disguise
As I walk down the aisle.

And I'm gone gone gone
Now I'm older than movies
Let me dance away
Now I'm wiser than dreams
Let me fly fly fly
While I'm touching tomorrow
And I know who's there
When silhouettes fall.

And I'm gone
Like I'm dancing on angels
And I'm gone
Through a crack in the past
Like a dead man walking
Like a dead man walking.

Two young men dancing under the lamplight
Shaking their sex and their bones
And the boys that we were
An alien nation in therapy
Sliding naked and new
Like a bad tempered child
On a rain slicked street.

And I'm gone gone gone
And I'm older than movies
Oh let me dance dance dance
Now I'm wiser than dreams
Let me fly fly fly
While I'm touching tomorrow
And I know who's there
When silhouettes fall
And I'm gone.

And I'm gone, like I'm dancing on angels
And I'm gone,
Through the crack in the past
Like a dead man walking
Like a dead man walking
Like a dead man
Like a dead man walking.

And I'm gone gone gone
Let me dance dance dance
And I'm gone gone gone
Let me dance dance dance
And I'm gone, like I'm dancing on angels
And I'm gone,
Through a crack in the past
Like a dead man walking
Like a dead man walking.
