the black angel's death song

• the velvet underground'un the velvet underground and nico albümünden bir şarkı;
  
  the myriad choices of his fate
  set themselves out upon a plate
  for him to choose
  what had he to lose
  not a ghost bloodied country
  all covered with sleep
  where the black angel did weep
  not an old city street in the east
  gone to choose
  and wandering's brother
  walked on through the night
  with his hair in his face
  on a long splintered cut from the knife of g.t.
  the rally man's patter ran on through the dawn
  until we said so long
  to his skull-shrill yell
  shining brightly red-rimmed and
  red-lined with the time
  infused with the choice of the mind
  on ice skates scraping chunks
  from the bells
  cut mouth bleeding razor's
  forgetting the pain
  antiseptic remains cool goodbye
  so you fly
  to the cozy brown snow of the east
  gone to choose, choose again
  sacrificials remains make it hard to forget
  where you come from
  the stools of your eyes
  serve to realize fame, choose again
  and roverman's refrain of the sacrilege recluse
  for the loss of a horse
  went the bowels and a tail of a rat
  come again, choose to go
  and if epiphany's terror reduced you to shame
  have your head bobbed and weaved
  choose a side to be on
  if the stone glances off
  split didactics in two
  leave the colors of the mouse trails
  don't scream, try between
  if you choose, if you choose, try to lose
  for the loss of remain come and start
  start the game i che che che che i
  che che ka tak koh
  choose to choose
  choose to choose, choose to go
