Habe seit zwei Tagen ein Lied von Tracey Thorn im Kopf. Grand Canyon. Vor allem der Text hat es mir angetan.
Boy I think you’ve come home
Open up the door and step inside
So many people who feel the way you do
Their sweetest dreams have always been denied
Lock the past into a box and throw away the key
And leave behind those days of endless night
Everyone is waiting
Everyone is here
Step out of the woods into the light
Everybody loves you here
Boy you’ve been on the wrong road
Wearing someone else’s shoes
Who told you you were not what you were meant to be?
And got you paying someone else’s dues?
This is the place for you just look around this room
Is anybody here made out of stone?
Down among the heretics, the losers, and the saints
You are here amongst your own
You’ve come home
Look at this hole inside your heart
No one can ever fill
It’s like the Grand Canyon
Look at this gap that’s opened up
Between you and the world
It’s like the Grand Canyon
Look at this hole inside your heart
It’s like the Grand Canyon
The Grand Canyon
Everybody loves you here
You’ve come home
Vor allem der Satz im Fettschrift läßt mich jedes mal erschaudern, weil er so wahr ist.
