Algiers - The Afghan Whigs

Faith, the diamond in the chain

Still I was a slave, waiting to be saved

Dream, the body sleeps but I

Am not too proud to roam

On the back streets

It’s oh, so simple when you know

You’ll know this when it’s time to go

Stray, and soon you’ll leave behind

The loneliness you’ve sown, paradise leans

Scream, the body leaves the bone

To sit upon the throne

The battle waged for light

Dream, dream your sins away

Sin your dreams away

You’re holding back, stop holding back

Unchain!

Say you’ll love me tonight

Save your love for me tonight

And I feel you now

Lie awake and love drunk

I feel you now

Heavenly daemons outside my window

Sent here to see me outside this world

I call the shadow, you call the season

And that’s solitary
