How Does The Grass Grow?

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
There's a graveyard by the stationWhere the girls wear nylon skirts andSandals from HungaryThe boys ride their Riga 1'sUpon the little hillSuch sadness and griefThe trees die standingThat's where we made our trystsAnd struggled with our gunsWould you still love meIf the clocks could go backwardsThe girls would fill with blood andThe grass would be green againRemember the deadThey were so greatSome of themHow does the grass growBlood blood bloodWhere do the boys lieMud mud mudHow does the grass growBlood blood bloodBut I lived a blind lifeA white face in prisonBut you made a life out of nothingNow I ride my black horseI miss youMore than you'll ever ever knowWaiting with my red eyesAnd my stone heartHow does the grass growBlood blood bloodWhere do the boys lieMud mud mudHow does the grass growBlood blood bloodI gaze in defeatAt the stars in the nightThe light in my life burnt awayThere will be no tomorrowThen you sigh in your sleepAnd meaning returns with the dayWhere do the boys lieMud mud mudHow does the grass growBlood blood blood
