Dead Man Walking

He swivels his head, tears
his eyes from the screen
As his past puts him back in
Atlantic City
There's not even a demon in
heaven or hell
Is it all just human disguise
as I walk down the aisle

And I'm gone, gone, gone
Now I'm older than movies
Let me dance away
Now I'm wiser than dreams
Let me fly, fly, fly
While I'm touching tomorrow
And I know who's there
When silhouettes fall
And I'm gone like I'm
dancing on angels
And I'm gone thru' the crack
in the past
Like a dead man walking

Three old men dancing
under the lamplight
Shaking their sex and their
bones and the boys that we
were
An alien nation in therapy
sliding naked and new
Like a bad tempered child
on the rain slicked streets

And I'm gone, gone, gone
Now I'm older than movies
Let me dance away
Now I'm wiser than dreams
Let me fly, fly, fly
While I'm touching tomorrow
And I know who's there
When silhouettes fall
And I'm gone like I'm
dancing on angels
And I'm gone thru' the crack
in the past
Like a dead man walking
