Patrick Wolf - Blackdown lyrics

And I walked west Suss** sunlight Up by dead mans pool Where ma, mudlark and lewes Stared me down, you drunken fool Old teenage debts engulfed my chest As I contemplate d**h Put a challenge to its glamour And all its loss and glory Wet afternoon breath Was taken deep into my lungs Thinking of the man I must become My story has just begun And I will be returning to myself soon For I've been alone for too many Of the great moments in my life Alone like so many But at this moment in my life..... Father, father, any way I can help ye? I am only just growing better to know thee.... Thank you for all the things you've given to our family... Given with your heart to your wife and my sister and me... Now i look out west of battle where our ancestors lie in grave, Out to breed where the blacksmith put root to our family name... I get proud of my birthright, Think of the things i must leave When I leave behind the city And the living Finally (The temple of the winds blows, until the boy wakes from his six year slumber... alive, alone, we take the next step) Desire Desire Deep down inside of me You are not the maker nor the master of me Help me to better support my family To better better of a brother be.... Desire Desire Deep down inside of me You are not the wrecker nor the ruler of me Desire Desire Deep down in me I've been alone for so many of these great moments in my life... Lone like so many But at this moment of my life Desire, despair and d**h I challenge thee... All as i walked up on blackdown
