Back in n. y. c.


I see faces and traces of home back in New York City
So you think I'm a tough kid? Is that what you heard?
Well I like to see some action and it gets into my blood.
They call me the trail blazer - Rael - electric razor
I'm a pitcher in the chain gang, we don't believe in pain only as strong,
'cos we're only as strong, as the weakest link in the chain.
Let me out of Pontiac when I was just seventeen,
I had to get it out of me, if you know what I mean, what I mean.
You say I must be crazy, 'cos I don't care who I hit, who I hit.
But I know it's me that's hittin' out, and I'm, I'm not full of shit.
I don't care who I hurt. I don't care who I do wrong.
This is your mess I'm stuck in, I really don't belong.
When I take out my bottle, filled up high with gasoline,
You can tell by the night fires where Rael has been, has been.

As I cuddled the porcupine
He said I had none to blame, but me.
Held my heart, deep in hair,
Time to shave, shave it off, it off.
No time for romantic escape,
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape. No!
No time for romantic escape,
When your fluffy heart is ready for ape. No!
Off we go.

You're sitting in your comfort you don't believe I'm real,
You cannot buy protection from the way that I feel.
Your progressive hypocrites hand out their trash,
But it was mine in the first place, so I'll burn it to ash.
And I've tasted all the strongest meats,
And laid them down in coloured sheets.
Laid them down in coloured sheets.
Who needs illusion of love and affection
When you're out walking in the streets with your mainline connection?
Connection.

As I cuddled the porcupine
He said I had none to blame, but me.
Held my heart, deep in hair,
Time to shave, shave it off, it off.
No time for romantic escape,
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape. No!
... No time.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Jeff Buckley (1967-1997) was an American singer-songwriter and guitarist widely considered one of the most gifted musical talents of his generation. Born Jeffrey Scott Buckley in Anaheim, California, he spent his childhood moving between various cities across the United States, influenced by the music of his father, Tim Buckley, a folk-rock musician himself. After studying singing and guitar, Jeff moved to New York City in 1988, where he began performing in underground venues. In 1994, he released his debut album, *Grace*, a critically acclaimed work that established him as a talented artist. The album featured iconic tracks like "Hallelujah", a powerful and emotionally resonant cover of Leonard Cohen's original song, and "Lover You Should've Come Over". His music was characterized by a wide vocal range, diverse influences spanning from progressive rock to folk, and poetic and introspective lyrics. Sadly, Jeff Buckley's career was cut short in 1997 when he died in a boating accident on the Mississippi River. Despite his brief artistic life, he left a significant musical legacy, influencing generations of musicians and continuing to be celebrated as one of the greatest talents in alternative rock.
