Holocaust Songtext

von Son Volt

Your eyes are almost dead
Can't get out of bed and you can't sleep
You're sittin' down to dress
And you're a mess, you look in the mirror

You look in your eyes
Say, you look in your eyes

Everybody goes
Leavin' those who fall behind
Everybody goes as far as they can
They don't just care

They stood on the stairs
Laughin' at your airs

You're almost dead
She said, "Don't be afraid"
You're almost dead
You're on your own, don't be afraid

You look in your eyes
Say, you look in your eyes

Everybody goes
Leavin' those who fall behind
Everybody goes as far as they can
They don't just care

They stood on the stairs
Laughin' at your airs

You're a wasted face
You're a sad-eyed lie
You're a holocaust
