Din Lyrics - Din Of Ecstasy - Chris Whitley

Well, when I got your letter, I could not contain 

The urge to go beyond our inheritance again 

And the drug of ages, in pages of your pen 

I got to put it down 

Maybe you got glazed by all the shit you had 

To taste for to descend, to let me in 

Maybe it's okay now if you turn and run away 

Anesthetic days of crusades and consent, the idiot intent 

And though our love was likely your disease is so competent 

You're so proud of the few risks you've taken, child 

But no it's nothing new, we all continue 

Maybe it's okay now 

If you turn and run away, well, yet again 

Vacant above the din, vacant above the din 

[Incomprehensible] 

I tried to dissuade the agents in your mind 

Who'll rape and campaign until you resign 

And I'd return your letter but I'm feeling unrefined 

I'd rather put you down 

Vacant in the eyes as you conform 

And compromise yourself in sense 

And like pretense 

Maybe it's okay now 

If you turn and run away, well, yet again 

Vacant above the din, above the din 

Above the din, above the din
