Dead Man Walking Lyrics by David Bowie

Dead Man Walking Lyrics

    He swivels his head, tears
    his eyes from the screen
    As his past puts him back in
    Atlantic City
    There's not even a demon in
    heaven or hell
    Is it all just human disguise
    as I walk down the aisle

    And I'm gone, gone, gone
    Now I'm older than movies
    Let me dance away
    Now I'm wiser than dreams
    Let me fly, fly, fly
    While I'm touching tomorrow
    And I know who's there
    When silhouettes fall
    And I'm gone like I'm
    dancing on angels
    And I'm gone thru' the crack
    in the past
    Like a dead man walking

    Three old men dancing
    under the lamplight
    Shaking their sex and their
    bones and the boys that we
    were
    An alien nation in therapy
    sliding naked and new
    Like a bad tempered child
    on the rain slicked streets

    And I'm gone, gone, gone
    Now I'm older than movies
    Let me dance away
    Now I'm wiser than dreams
    Let me fly, fly, fly
    While I'm touching tomorrow
    And I know who's there
    When silhouettes fall
    And I'm gone like I'm
    dancing on angels
    And I'm gone thru' the crack
    in the past
    Like a dead man walking
