Woke from dreaming, Another lyrical post

Simply put, i don't feel like tackling any serious issues now or care to elaborate on the monotony of my rather reasonable but otherwise barely tolerable life. So without any more deliberations, here is Woke from dreaming, the final ending theme for the anime series Gunslinger Girl, if memory serves me well. As you might have already realised this is the second time i have posted the lyrics for a song featured in Gunslinger Girl, it has quite simply one of the best soundtracks i have heard so far, and it has a great story line to boot. A very well thought out and planned anime which i highly recommend to all interested in anime. So here it is, performed by The Delgados, the same people who sang The light before we land.

Woke from dreaming

Woke from dreaming but it took convincing
I was shaking screaming I was still alive

And you were picking strangers by the side of roadways
Little little let the danger unfold
You can do what you do if you think you'll take it
You can do what you do if you are that way inclined

Suffer with silk as the pressure's tighter
You have skin pale as milk with the pressure on
My heart is getting heavy and my hands are weak now
Hatred lifting and I'll start to weep now
You can do what you do if you think you'll take it
You can do what you do if you are that way inclined

Just for a moment can we take a little time
Just stop for a moment can we make this moment mine
I've tried to let go but I've never had much to say
Take a day take them all now
Just for a moment can we take a little time
Just stop for a moment can we look inside this mind
We try to control but we never quite know what's there
We will kill if we need to
