    Darker With The Day
    Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

    As so with that,
    I thought I'd take a final walk
    The tide of public opinion had started to abate
    The neighbours, bless them,
    had turned out to be all talk
    I could see their frightened faces
    peering at me through the gate
    I was looking for an end to this,
    for some kind of closure
    Time moved so rapidly,
    I had no hope of keeping track of it
    I thought of my friends
    who had died of exposure
    And I remembered other ones
    who had died from the lack of it
    And in my best shoes
    I started falling forward down the street
    I stopped at a church
    and jostled through the crowd
    And love followed just behind me,
    panting at my feet
    As the steeple tore the stomach
    from a lonely little cloud
    Inside I sat,
    seeking the presence of a God
    I searched through the pictures
    in a leather-bound book
    I found a woolly lamb dozing
    in an issue of blood
    And a gilled Jesus shivering
    on a fisherman's hook
    Babe
    It seems so long
    Since you've been gone away
    And I
    Just got to say
    That it grows darker with the day

    Back on the street
    I saw a great big smiling sun
    It was a Good day and an Evil day
    and all was bright and new
    that most destruction was being done
    And it seemed to me
    By those who could not choose between the two
    Amateurs, dilettantes, hacks, cowboys, clones
    The streets groan with little Caesars,
    Napoleons and cunts
    With their building blocks
    and their tiny plastic phones
    Counting on their fingers,
    with crumbs down their fronts
    I passed by your garden,
    saw you with your flowers
    The Magnolias, Camellias and Azaleas so sweet
    And I stood there invisible in the panicking crowds
    You looked so beautiful in the rising heat
    I smell smoke,
    see little fires bursting on the lawns
    People carry on regardless,
    listening to their hands
    Great cracks appear in the pavement,
    the earth yawns
    Bored and disgusted,
    to do us down
    Babe
    It seems so long
    Since you've been gone
    And I
    Just got to say
    That it grows darker with the day

    These streets are frozen now.
    I come and go
    Full of a longing for something
    I do not know
    My father sits slumped
    in the deepening snow
    As I search, in and out, above, about, below
    It seems so long
    Since you went away
    And I
    Open the brain
    That it grows darker with the day
