Kurt Nilsen - Ebony lyrics

Ebony

Ebony… These are the ways of society. Reach for the sun.

There is no sun, you are the lonely one.

Ebony… These are the facts, this is reality.

They'll drag you down. They'll break your heart and turn your world around

Ebony, say you will always find a friend in me.

But you must do whatever I say.

Now lay down and dream, someone will come and set you free.

Though you know in your heart that you are here to stay.

The dream that died - was it murder or was it suicide?

It left you cold, made you feel so used and old.

Ebony, now there is nothing to look forward to.

But you may still have to suffer and fight.

Now lay down and dream, someone will come and set you free.

Though you know, in the end you'll see no light.

Ebony, you'll never be what you want to be.

Your hopes are gone, you'll never ever trust another one.

Ebony, say you will always find a friend in me.

But you must do whatever I say.

Now lay down and dream, someone will come and set you free.

Though you know in your heart that you are here to stay.
