U2 - Winter текст песни

The yellow sun
Well it took the hand
Of a country boy
To a city in a far off land

We made no mark
No shadow at all
On the ancient holy streets
Where I learned to crawl

Looking at the bruised
The young and the used
The sure and confused all here

Chorus:
Words will land on me
Then abandon me
Mangle, untangle me
Leave me on the floor

Rhymes they sprang in me
Summer sang in me
But summer sings in me no more

Now I'm 25
I'm trying to stay alive
In a corner of the world
With no clear enemies to fight

It's hot as hell
We're like butter on toast
But there's no army in this world
That can fight a ghost

Looking at the bruised
The young and the used
The sure and confused all here

Chorus:
Words would land on me
Then abandon me
Leave me stranded
Knocking on the door

Rhymes began in me
Summer sang in me
But summer sings in me no more

The silence in the foreground
The sky stretched
The stench over everyone
Listen to the tanks the shots

At 21, I was born a son
And on that day I knew
I could kill

To protect the ones
Who put bullets in guns
Or anything it takes
To take a life
