Lyrics |
You awake, lying still / while light makes landfallin the steel suburban room The windows show, row on row, all the same: More people are summoned round to chase to blue Your lips still work, you know your namebut know not why nor whence you came You have no past, you have no guilt You've arrived, you've arrived Dreams, nightmares are through You've arrived, you've arrived on Valhalla Avenue You were a drunk, you kept a filthy homeand you hated hard with confusion in your heart The barren weeks, the amnesiac years You'd put the world off till tomorrow and let despair tear you apart Well, now they're breaking down the door / You hide away, safe no more Scream as they drag you from your bed / When you recount from a bleeding head You've arrived, you've arrivedbut redemption was not for you You've arrived--goodbye to Valhalla Avenue So long! Cheerio! Bye bye!I'll see you later on! Next time, I hope it's fun!
