lyrics

Slayer, tooth decayer
on a prayer that was answered

On a high horse, or a racecourse
in flames, and flooded with answers

But will my
young heart
beat a false start?
I'm a jogger whose eyes are turning

I'm a here now
and I know how
Oh, my heart is yearning

Day on day...

You're a talker, she's a walker
yeah, there's two kinds of people
one half, have heart
the other part
lie in a field of dead dreams, oh

And now the rent's due,
and I have to
siphon off a living
in this
cruel world
which was hurled
out into space and spinning

Day on day...

Now it's late fall
before nightfall
yeah, I go out walking

Over
dead leaves
in my blue jeans
and my
long sleeves
with their
stitched seams

And the streetlights,
they shine so bright
I wonder what they could show me

It's a long freeze and I do believe
we could all
go without warning

Slayer
