Kill Zone (T-Bone Burnett)

We stood together in the open field And heard the secret that the night revealed Then we chased the lie Racing through the sky Can we untangle guilt or innocence? How hard we torture this ambivalence Night will bring no dawn Where has power gone? For I'll steal your dreams while you are sleeping And sell them for dust and cheap lust And I'll slit your hope while you are weeping And wipe the blood clean with morphine Be my queen The wind howls the black clouds around the storm at sea I'm dropping at too great a speed Come closer to me on your hands and knees Alone in the kill zone How much is not enough, how much is through? How long will I be getting over you? How much grief and sin 'til a heart caves in? 'Til a heart caves in, 'til a heart caves in
