Skating Away (On the Thin Ice of the New Day)(Live; 2004 Remaster) - Jethro Tull

作词:Ian Anderson

When you belonged to no one

You didn't stand a chance son

If your pants were undone

'Cause you were bred for humanity

and sold to society

One day you'll wake up in the present day

A million generations

removed from expectations

Of being who you really want to be

Skating away skating away skating away

On the thin ice of the new day ay

So as you push off from the shore

Won't you turn your head once more

And make your peace with everyone

For those who choose to stay

Will live just one more day

To do the things they should have done

And as you cross the wilderness

a spinning in your emptiness

You feel you have to pray

Looking for a sign that the universal minds

Has written you into the passion play

Skating away skating away skating away

On the thin ice of the new day ay

And as you cross the circle line

well the ice wall creaks behind

You're a rabbit on the run

And the silver splinters fly

In the corner of your eye

Shining in the setting sun

Well do you ever get the feeling

That the story's too damn real

And in the present tense

Or that everybody's on the stage

and it seems like you're the only

Person sitting in the audience

Skating away skating away skating away

On the thin ice of the new day ay

Skating away skating away skating away
