lirik lagu in the end (kansas) – peter hammill
[verse 1]
i promise you, i won’t leave a clue:
no tell*tale remark, no print from my shoe
still, a steady trail to the water’s edge…
i will keep my pledge to the end:
i intend to go free!
[verse 2]
no more rushing around, no more travelling chess;
i guess i’d better sit down, you know i do need the rest…
i guess it’s time to resign with equanimity and placidity
from the game
i can’t explain;
i can’t relate…
have i done it all too late?
[segue]
[verse 3]
this is the time for the commission to report;
done till lately, i thought i’d been planted
trying hard to make it all come real
permission to feel is ungranted
but now it’s happening i’d like to keep it private if i can;
last words, last looks, make a final stand
now my number’s come up on the pools
oh, i’d like to board the titanic for a cruise…
[verse 4]
and now it’s happening, [?] clear
too late, i fear, and lonely
as friends and enemies traverse the stage;
all in a rage disown me
and all the pit*props shatter into dust about my ears:
like memory and conscience, hope and fear
as i crawl out further on the limb
something tells me i am crawling
in to unknown prophecies and lives
the rainbow’s end is hemmed around with knives…
[segue]
[verse 5]
as i stand on the boards and the stage lights grow dim
shall i go out of doors, or shall i maybe go in?
i reached the point when i should take my cue
and follow you and your signs?
i can’t remember my lines
as the prompter cat*calls
and the cards all fall
in the strike!
[verse 6]
all the pages are thin, all the corners are curled
does the starshine fall in through my window on the world?
or am i living out (now, the seeds of doubt) a chronicle of revenge?
or the willow bends
as do my hands;
do you understand?
and will you still be my friend in the end?
[outro]
when my mouth falls slack
and i can’t summon up another tune
shall i then look back and say
i did it all
too soon?
