Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Black crows flying in your wheat field
Babies cryin', all you got's a paper shield
It don't make much sense to you
Who said it had to?
Most folks smile away the blues
I mean I I guess they do
You never really know for sure
But I'm surviving on this hunch that
everybody else is hurtin' too
[Chorus]
He was crazy
Crazy but able
So he excused himself from cleaning up the
stable
This is the way that horses die
This is the way you learn to lie-
By sacrificing the real and forgetting how
to feel
[Verse 2]
I loved him like fire
We both had similar burning desires
He kept expecting it all to work out down
here
I just hang on to holy fear
[Chorus]
He was crazy
Crazy but able
So he excused himself from cleaning up the
stable
This is the way that horses die
This is the way you learn to lie-
By sacrificing the real and forgetting how
to feel
Now I know how far out I'm getting here
But it's a dark night walk- the life of
fear
And I'm trying to choose the words
That'll chase away the birds
Good God, just hurry up and come down here
[Chorus]
He was crazy
Crazy but able
So he excused himself from cleaning up the
stable
This is the way that horses die
This is the way you learn to lie-
By sacrificing the real and forgetting how
to feel
