Advertising Space－be brave

Advertising space Robbie Williams

There's no earthly way of knowing
What was in your heart
When it stopped going
The whole world shook
A storm was blowing through you

Waiting for God to stop this
And up to your neck in darkness
Everyone around you was corrupted
Saying somethin'

There's no dignity in death
To sell the world your last breath
They're still fighting over
Everything you left over

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

And
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profit s go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space

Through your eyes
The world was burning
Please be gentle
I'm still learning
You seemed to say
As you kept turning up

They poisoned you with compromise
At what point did you realise
Everybody loves your life
But you ahahh

Special agent for the man
Through watergate and vietnam
No one really gave a damn
Did you think the CIA did

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

And
No one learned from your mistake
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space ooooohh

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space

I've seen your daughter
Man shes cute
I was scared but I wanted to
Boy she looks a lot like you

Dear mom

曾經有個好朋友
分享過這首歌
裡頭他最愛的一句歌詞是
No one really gave a damn
Did you think the CIA did

那時候我忙於自己的生活
沒有長時間聆聽他
沒有珍惜他的信任
沒有警覺也不懂得求救

他離開之後
我常想著

自殺防治真的防治的了什麼嗎
當他覺得一切無望腦子也出了狀況
失心失語失去盼望失去認同

救了一次救得了幾次
當他看見每樣東西都是提醒他結束自己的訊號

如果再來一次
事情真的能變得不一樣嗎
或只是方式不同時間變了身旁的人多了一分心理準備
或是他會慢慢康復漸漸找到站穩的腳步展開往後的人生
no one can answer me this

唯一能確定一樣的是
我沒有失憶

也忘不了
一問二應三轉介1995

生命的河流有時會被改道
河床該有哪些風景
此刻我不知道

當那瞬間逼近
願臨走的人都平靜無懼
帶著愛微笑先走
