Death Singing Lyrics - Peace And Noise - Patti Smith

In the straw-colored light 

In light rapidly changing 

On a life rapidly fading 

Have you seen death singing 

Have you seen death singing 

With a throat smooth as a lamb 

Yet dry as a branch not snapping 

He throws back his head 

And he does not sing a thing mournful

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Have you seen death singing 

Have you seen death singing 

Have you seen death singing 

In the straw-colored light 

He sings a black embrade 

And white opals swimming 

In a child's leather purse 

Have you seen death swimming 

Have you seen death swimming 

With a throat smooth as a lamb 

Yet dry as a branch not snapping 

He throws back his head 

And he does not sing a thing mournful 

Have you seen death singing 

Have you seen death singing 

Have you seen death singing 

In the straw-colored light 

He sings of youth enraged 

And the burning of Atlanta 

And these viral times 

And May ribbons streaming 

And straw-colored curls a-turning 

A mother's vain delight 

And woe to the sun 

And woe to the young 

Another hearse is drawn 

Have you seen death singing 

In the straw-colored light
