Dylan
I pray for rain because I'm tryingTo find god and make him cry,Because I'm dying in a fire beneath my covers.And somewhere out across the way,You ask for salt across a plate,And you can't find a word to sayTo your own brother.And you could call me over now,And we could fix this with our mouths,But you don't buy the farm,If you can't afford the cow.And you say Dylan is a sentimentThat you don't want to share,And you say you looked back in angerAnd it rose to meet your stare,And you say I am not the oneWho puts the bullet to your gunAnd makes it flare.And you say Dylan is a sentiment to you,And you don't want to share.You say you're looking for the truth,Like you got rifles in your books,But up above your parents' roofLetras de cancionesI saw no star tonight,Only the black from whence you came,And where they'll send you back again,And no blue plaque will keep your nameFrom falling out of sight.And you can wage this war of one,And I am still the only oneWho will remember you when you are gone.And you say Dylan is a sentimentThat you don't want to share,And you say you looked back in angerAnd it rose to meet your stare,And you say I am not the oneWho puts the bullet to your gunAnd makes it flare.And you say Dylan is a sentiment to you,And you don't want to share.Oh and all the things you talk aboutBut never say to me,And all the things to talk aboutThat I could say to you,Like reading an Italian bookFrom the 13th century,Is not that hard to do.And I am not the kindWho puts their toe against the lineAnd makes it tear,But this could be the thingThat puts the blood into your skinAnd keeps it there.And you say Dylan is a sentimentThat no one else will ever understand.And you say Dylan is a sentiment to you,But you are only just a man.
