Wor(l)d of Morrissey
  We're back! Welcome to the world of Morrissey's lyrics.

This site and all of the work made to keep it updated during the last 26 years are dedicated to my beloved friend MaCa65 who suddenly left this lonely planet
and me without words. Throughout the short stretch of time that we have been given to spend together as close friends, we shared many things,
thoughts, afternoons, views, passions and some bits of Life. Back in 1983, together we discovered a band called The Smiths and together since then, we followed Morrissey's career
as one of the most influential and inspiring singer/artist/poet of our age. Maca65 has always been a strong supporter since when I first launched WoM,
so this is and will always be entirely for you, my friend. -- David

Saint In A Stained Glass Window

Atone for your mercy
For you are a Saint in a stained glass window
Atone for your mercy
For you have a soul that cannot be bought by money

I've had such a hard time
I've been waiting my turn
Since the wretched day I was born
I've had such a hard time
I should not exist
You'll never find my trace on lovers lips

Atone for your mercy
For you are the Saint in a stained glass window
You aren't corrupted
You tell the truth and you face (ineligible)

I've had such a hard time
I should not exist
I'll learn till the day I burn
So don't pick on me
I know nothing comes next
I won't have any strength to protest

So Jesus let me die
Don't torture me more
I pitch my sights higher than this hardwood floor

Oh Jesus let me die
I can't do this anymore
Give me rest
I'm too tired to protest

Oh give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest

Oh give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest
Give me rest

Santo in una vetrata colorata

Devi espiare per la tua misericordia
Perché tu sei un Santo in una vetrata colorata
Devi espiare per la tua misericordia
Perché hai un'anima che non può essere comprata dal denaro

Ho avuto un periodo così difficile
Ho aspettato il mio turno
Dal misero giorno in cui sono nato
Ho passato un periodo così difficile
Non dovrei esistere
Non troverai mai la mia traccia sulle labbra degli amanti

Espiare per la tua misericordia
Perché tu sei il Santo in una vetrata
Non sei corrotto
Dici la verità a viso aperto (in modo inammissibile)

Ho avuto un periodo così difficile
Non dovrei esistere
Imparerò fino al giorno in cui brucerò
Quindi non prendetevela con me
So che non c'è niente da fare
Non avrò la forza di protestare

Quindi Gesù, lasciami morire
Non torturarmi ancora
Ho puntato più in alto di questo pavimento di legno duro

Oh Gesù, lasciami morire
Non ce la faccio più
Dammi riposo
Sono troppo stanco per protestare

Oh dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo

Oh, dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
Dammi riposo
