THE DISTILLERS LYRICS

"The Blackest Years"

Oh berlin! Your heart has been, drawn and quartered again
The east and the west were divided by, a wall that staunched their freedom
Well the wall came down in 1989
But its ghost still refuses to leave
These hauntings are so reputative
Theres a bit of you in me... Lets go!

Oh berlin! Your life is on fire, it burns, deep within this, heart of mine
You got, astronamical, economical, suffering for a century
And when the ocean swells that day I'll, get on my ship
And I'll, sail away all this shit I'm on this ship

And when you're all alone, don't forget me
And when I'm all alone I won't forget you
And when you're all alone don't forget me
Cause I'm on the wrong side of the tracks
But I did not know until you turned your back
I'm livin' the blackest years, of my life
But I did not know until you said goodbye
Goodbye

Oh berlin! Your witness stands here
On this cityshamed kinda day
I'm going home, hey x 15

And when you're all alone, don't forget me
And when I'm all alone, I won't forget you
And when you're all alone, don't forget me
Cause I'm on the wrong side of the tracks
But I did not know until you turned your back
I'm livin' the blackest years of my life
But I did not know until you said goodbye
Goodbye!

...
We were young girls
In a small world
Im on your doorstep man
Ringin' your bell again
Ringin' your bell again

We were young girls
In a small fucked up world
Im on your doorstep man
Ringin' your bell again
I'm ringin' your bell again

I'm sorry Gertie Rouge
All that you're through
I know that you're through
Oh Gertie Rouge
Oh Gertie Rouge
Im sorry
I'm sorry you're through
Oh Gertie Rouge I miss you

We were young girls
In a small world
I'm on your doorstep man
Ringin' your bell again
I'm ringin' your bell again

Baby, ahh, young girls
In a small world
Im on your doorstep man
Ringin' your bell again
I'm ringin' your bell again
I'm ringin' your bell...
