Needle of Death

Bert Jansch

[Verse 1]
When sadness fills your heart
And sorrow hides the longing to be free
When things go wrong each day
You fix your mind to escape your misery

[Chorus]
Your troubled young life
Has made you turn
To a needle of death

[Verse 2]
How strange, your happy words
Have ceased to bring a smile from everyone
How tears have filled the eyes
Of friends that you once had walked among

[Chorus]
Your troubled young life
Has made you turn
To a needle of death

[Verse 3]
One grain of pure white snow
Dissolved in blood spreads quickly to your brain
In peace your mind withdraws
Your death so near your soul can't feel no pain

[Chorus]
Your troubled young life
Has made you turn
To a needle of death

[Verse 4]
Your mother stands a-cryin'
As to the earth your body's slowly cast
Your father stands in silence
Caressing every young dream of the past

[Chorus]
And your troubled young life
Had made you turn
To a needle of death

[Verse 5]
Through ages man's desired
To free his mind, to release his very soul
Has proved to all who live
That death itself is freedom forevermore

[Chorus]
And your troubled young life
Will make you turn
To a needle of death
