*** Autor textu: Pete Doherty + Dot Allison | She opened her heart to a tearaway
Sheepskin tearaway
He was covered in scars and full of heroin
Everyone said from the start
Not one single thing could ever be OK
She didn't listen anyway
She just opened her heart, threw her cares away
At night they held on so tight in the dark
He brushed her hair away; she heard him say,
"All my life I've been fighting
"And making the best of an ... very bad lot
"Very bad lot, very, very bad lot indeed"
"Oh, you're fighting but you're nowhere
"If nowhere's here, with your hollow skin (?)
"And you could fight forever
"But if you killed them all, you'd never win
"So give me your surrender
"There are other ways to kill the pain
"But then it will never mend you
"It's like trying to dry your eyes in the pouring rain"
She opened her heart to a tearaway
A sheepskin tearaway
All covered in scars and full of heroin
Tearaway, sheepskin tearaway
Sheepskin tearaway |
