The stars at night turned deep to dust

Chanson : The Greatest, Cat Power

Paroles

Once I wanted to be the greatest
 No wind or waterfall could stall me
 And then came the rush of the flood
 Stars at night turned deep to dust

Melt me down
 Into big black armour
 Leave no trace of grace
 Just in your honor
 Lower me down
 To culprit south
 Make 'em wash a space in town
 For the lead
 And the dregs of my bed
 I've been sleeping
 Lower me down
 Pin me in
 Secure the grounds
 For the later parade

Once I wanted to be the greatest
 Two fists of solid rock
 With brains that could explain
 Any feeling

Lower me down
 Pin me in
 Secure the grounds
 For the lead
 And the dregs of my bed
 I've been sleeping
 For the later parade

Once I wanted to be the greatest
 No wind or waterfall could stall me
 And then came the rush of the flood
 The stars at night turned deep to dust
