Текст пісні Obvious Question - Suzanne Vega

Obvious Question

I am sitting over here
the line is safety drawn
the obvious question is
how long does this go on?
Alcohol danced upon his nerves
played upon his skin
made him mad inside
broke everything within
and now it does the same to me
in needlepoints of fire
wreathed around my neck
the spirits take the man
and leave behind a wreck
I am sitting over here
the line is safety drawn
the obvious question is
how long does this go on?
