Lyrics:
When, when we were young
We had no history
So nothing to lose
Meant we could choose
Choose what we wanted then
Without any fear
Or thought of revenge
But then you grew old
And I lost my ambition
So I gained an addiction
To drink and depression
(they are mine
My only true friends
And I'll keep them with me
Until the very end)
I'd choose not to remember
But I miss your arrogance
And I need your intelligence
And your hate for authority
But now you're gone
I read it today
They found you in Spain
Face down in the street
With a bottle in your hand
And a wild smile on your face
And a knife in your back
You died in a foreign land
And they found my letter
Rolled up in your pocket
Where I said I'd kill myself
If she left me again
So now she's gone
And you're both in my mind
I've got one thing to say
Before I am drunk again:
God damn the sun
God damn the sun
God damn anyone
That says a kind word
God damn the sun
God damn the sun
God damn the light it shines
And this world it shows
God damn the sun

[@Embrod]

I'm sorry, but from what album of Gira it comes? Or from Swans? ok it's from compilation "Songs for a Dog"

[@grang5677]

@@Embrod the song God Damn The Sun is originally from swans The Burning World

[@boyo7918]

These vocals on the original instrumental would make a near perfect song

[@richardroberson2564]

Easily a ten

Gotta love the sounds of creaking chair on the background

[@Harsh-yg3cc]

some of the best lyrics

[@MarcLowe]

Nice to hear this stripped-down "at home" (?) version. Very nice.

[@xgum]

i'd love to write a song like this, but whenever i try, it just ends up sounding too much like god damn the sun

[@xgum]
