Dead Man Walkin` (Eastenders) — текст песни (Ian Hunter)

(Ian Hunter)

I`ve been here before - this is where my fingers slipped into yours
This is where I trembled - when you touched mine
This is where the seeds we planted long ago
Grew up to tell us we`re too old to know

I`ve been here before - this is where the novelty starts wearing off, wearing off, wearing off
And all the world`s a stage - it`s just that I ain`t on it anymore, anymore
This ain`t Eastenders, this ain`t Eastenders, this ain`t Eastenders, it`s the real thing
What am I supposed to do now?
Crawl down the hole of monotony - monotony - monotony - monotony

The silence is deafening - the phone never rings
Won`t somebody help me cos - I feel like I`m drowning
If I should sink - if I should swim
It doesn`t really matter anymore - Dead man walkin`

I`ve been meaning to tell you for oh so long
Baby you got it right `n I got it wrong
Now I know what ageism means - you gotta try a little harder
you gotta be a little stronger

I`ve been here before - this is where nothing happens anymore, anymore, anymore,
Someone else`s rage - someone else`s pain
Someone else`s ego - you will believe, you will believe

This ain`t Eastenders, this ain`t Eastenders, this ain`t Eastenders, it`s the real thing
What am I supposed to do now?
Sink to the bottom of obscurity, obscurity, obscurity, obscurity

It`s a foregone conclusion - a fait accompli
It`s all taken care of - you don`t have to worry
If I should lose - If I should win
It doesn`t really matter anymore - Dead man walkin`
