Testo di Black Snow

There's a right turn somewhere that can take you to the wrong place Someone you don't know can start stepping on your face There's a left turn somewhere that can take you from the smoke But someone stole the street sign and the traffic light is broken There's an upturn in the money, still everyone's downsizing 'Til we'd sell our shoes for a job, and similar compromising There's a wrong turn somewhere someone made a long time ago So we sit here in this grey place and watch it fill up with black snow There's a fool on your screen and he's smiling as he tells you How your life will be much better if you buy the things he sells you There's a voice in your head, that says this is not so but There's a sinking feeling as you watch your credit card bills grow There's a missing piece of information somewhere How can someone as smart as you are Get caught up in such a simple snare There's a vein in your temple, there's a fear of letting go There's a window, there's your tv, there's a waiting bank of black snow There's a can of spray paint; get it in your hand There's a rock there's a gun, there's a street, should you take a stand There's a little girl who's lost, there's an old man with no money There's a reason why you cannot see why any of this is funny There's a dozen books in your room, there's a world outside your door There's a billion hungry people; There's your roof, and there's your floor There's a place in your soul where the winter cannot go If you're lucky you can get there And get away from the black snow
