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 Now I’m older than movies And I know who’s there When silhouettes fall And I’m gone Like I’m dancing on angels And I’m gone Through the cracks in the past Like a Dead Man Walking Like a Dead Man Walking (Uh Huh) Three old men dancing under the lamplight Shaking their sex and 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 Now I’m older than movies And I know who’s there When silhouettes fall And I’m gone Like I’m dancing on angels And I’m gone Through the cracks in the past Like a Dead Man Walking Like a Dead Man Walking (Uh Huh) A Dead Man A Dead Man A Dead Man (bridge) And I’m gone Now I’m older than movies And I know who’s there When silhouettes fall And I’m gone Like I’m dancing on angels And I’m gone Through the cracks in the past Like a Dead Man Walking Like a Dead Man Walking (Uh Huh) A Dead Man A Dead Man A Dead Man Like a Dead Man Walking (Uh Huh)
