Don, Aman lyrics
Song information
Artist: Slint Album: Spiderland
Lyrics
Don stepped outside It felt good to be alone He wished he was drunk Thought about something he said And how stupid it had sounded He knew he should forget about it And decided to piss, but he couldn't.. (A plane passed silently overhead, the streetlights, and the buds on the trees and the night, were still.)
It finally came, he took a deep breath It made him feel strong, and determined To go back inside
The light Their backs The conversation The couples, romancing, so natural His friends stare With eyes, like the heads of nails The others Glances With amusement With evasion With contempt So distant With malice For being a sty In their engagement Like swimming underwater in the darkness Like walking through an empty house Speaking to an imaginary audience Being watched from outside, by no-one (A song without a key) He could not dance to anything
Don left And drove And howled And laughed At himself He felt he knew what that was
Don woke up And looked at the night before He knew what he had to do He was responsible In the mirror He saw his friend
