I'm Going On A Long Journey Never To Return Lyrics - The True False Identity - T Bone Burnett

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

We've been going back and forth for a long time 

We often did the right thing at the wrong time 

We have hurt the ones that we love the most 

Till I wonder, did we ever get that close? 

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

I've been getting over you since the day we met 

It might have been as simple as the way we met 

Must we live in anger and in shame? 

Must we always try to place the blame? 

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

From fear to fear, from madness to madness 

Everything here has been hidden and guarded 

From tear to tear, from address to address 

I'm on borrowed time and I'm lost and discarded 

I can't decipher the questions you ask 

I wouldn't blame you for taking me to task 

It's hard to move freely in the cubist thing we did 

Fractured and slanted, ellipse as pyramid 

I'm grateful to you for every hard thing you've done 

I'll never replace you, next to you, there is no one 

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

Oh, this death, moment by moment 

Darker and darker, down and down 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath 

I feel your cold breath, I feel your cold breath
