Artist/Band: Lou Reed
Lyrics for Song: Slip Away (A Warning)
Lyrics for Album: Songs For Drella [1990]



Friends have said to lock the door

and have an open house no more

the said the Factory must change

And slowly slip away



But if I have to live in fear

where will I get my ideas

with all those crazy people gone

Will I slowly slip away



Still there's no more Billy Name

Ondine is not the same

Wonton and the Turtle gone

Slowly slip away

slowly slip away



If I close the Factory door

and don't see those people anymore

if I give in to infamy

I'll slowly slip away



I know it seems that friends are right

hello daylight, goodbye night

but starlight is so quiet here

Think I'll slowly slip away



What can I do by myself

it's good to here from someone else

it's good to hear a crazy voice

Will not slip away

will not slip away



If I have to live in fear

my ideas will slowly slip away



If I have to live in fear

I'm afraid my life will slip away



If you can't see me past my door

why your thoughts could slowly slip away



If I have to lock the door

another life exists no more slip away



Friends have said to lock the door

watch out for who comes through the door

the said the Factory must change



But I don't
