Fragments
Grand Mexican Warlock Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Smoke flies away through the clouds, far from a chimney
Sun has just faded away, rivers gently flow
Neons above start to glow, blinding the city
Thousand are rushing around, but I walk alone

It’s always the same
Always just the same
Can’t say why but I’m here again
I feel myself vain, so vain

The way to the bank is not long, I can smell the river
Just a block down from here on the left, I know it right well
I sit down on a bench, light a smoke, I feel some shiver
When the shadows on the walls ahead, are dancing like hell

Seeing all the same, it grinds my mind, tears my flesh apart
Waiting if the next day gives me a new way? No!
I don’t wanna be here so, gotta find somewhere to go
Leave this shit behind but don’t know how
Just don’t know how
No matter how, I really need to go




Or else, let the river help me to flow
Help me to flow
