You Are Never Alone

.

Después de varios intentos a lo largo de su vida, Vic Chesnutt ha conseguido quitarse la vida en su casa de Georgia. Se va uno de los más grandes artistas de los últimos viente años. Descansa en paz, Vic.

A título póstumo, una de las canciones incluídas en su último disco -At The Cut- mostrando su tortuosa relación con la muerte. Sobrecogedor.

"Flirted with You all My Life"

I am a man

I am self-aware

And everywhere I go

You're always right there with me

I've flirted with you all my life

Even kissed you once or twice

And to this day I swear it was nice

But clearly I was not ready

When you touched a friend of mine

I thought I would lose my mind

But I found out with time that

really I was was not ready, no no

Oh, Death

Oh, Death

Oh, Death

Really, I'm not ready

Oh, Death you hector me

Decimate those dear to me

Tease me with your sweet release

You are cruel and you are constant

When my mom was cancer sick

She fought but then succumb to it

But you made her beg for it

Lord Jesus, please I'm ready.

Oh, Death

Oh, Death

Oh, Death

Really, I'm not ready
