Rough Silk Lyrics
"The Mysterious Boot Hill Grave Inscription"

mother said: "don't believe in dreams"

she said: "life's too hard to swing against the streams"

then she gave you a kiss and turned out the light

but you couldn't sleep at all

and you made your decision

to hold on tight -

to keep your heart

wide open - just to play your part and fight

and never take this small forever

- some give all

the mysterious boot hill grave inscription

"We don't need no one"

one for the dreamer in a world made of stone

two for the stranger who's left without hope and alone

call me a drifter with a faith bound to die

will you still betray - cover each day with a lie?

and time - time will tell

time will show you a reason why

too late to try

just fate - goodbye

the mysterious boot hill grave inscription

"We don't need no one"

- Some give all when all give some

and when the world's just a comedy

some will leave and some will fall

cause when I do give something

- some give all

do you remember the fears and the lights

do you believe in the silence and dark sleepless nights

once a companion - always a fool

over, done, finished and out and again just the rule

and time - time will tell

time will show you a reason why

too late to try

just fate - goodbye

the mysterious boot hill grave inscription

"We don't need no one"

- some give all when all give some

and when the world's just a comedy

some will leave and some will fall

cause when I do give something

- some give all

......and everybody calls your name
