[00:00.000] 作曲 : Jason Webley [00:08.22]The flowers by your bed are wilting [00:12.43]The sun is setting in the west [00:15.90]A fog is covering your eyes [00:17.80]Your stockings are attracting flies [00:19.43]Decay is nibbling at the boards on which you rest [00:23.20]There's someone waiting at your window [00:25.58] [00:26.84]Familiar face without a name [00:30.72]One night he'll creep in like the mist [00:32.00]To touch your forehead with a kiss [00:33.62]And lead you back into the void from whence we came [00:37.71]We've all begun to die and don't know what to do [00:45.67]Since it hurts to pray to God when God is dying too [00:51.84]Takes strength to laugh when you start to drown [00:59.72]And we dance while the sky crashes down [01:05.54] [01:06.19]Like that the earth begins to quiver [01:09.90]And all the oceans turn to black [01:13.07]A ship of maniacs with knives are playing blackjack with their lives [01:16.90]To kill the time until the giant rats attack [01:20.41]It's raining leprosy and acid [01:23.85]The saints were taken out and shot [01:27.11]When some proffers you a pear you sink your teeth in unaware [01:30.50]That just beneath the skin lies pestilence and rot [01:33.85]We've all begun to die and don't know what to do [01:41.42]Since it hurts to pray to God when God is dying too [01:48.11]Takes strength to laugh when you start to drown [01:55.40]And we dance while the sky crashes down [02:03.15] [02:31.04]All that now breathes [02:38.08]And all that you love [02:45.43]All that we weave [02:52.95]Will find its way back to the dust [02:58.04]A band of skeletons are playing [03:01.86]Don't act like you don't know the tune [03:05.20]Your part is echoed in the path of every dead leaf blowing past [03:08.33]Against a counterpoint reflected off the moon [03:12.28]There is a banquet at the table [03:15.03]Exotic cheeses, wines, and cakes [03:18.37]And every one of us is damned until we start to understand [03:22.69]That living is to gorge ourselves at our own wakes [03:26.55]We've all begun to die and don't know what to do [03:34.20]Since it hurts to pray to God when God is dying too [03:40.78]Takes strength to laugh when you start to drown [03:48.77]And we dance while the sky crashes down [03:55.07]When the stakes are high [03:59.04]Best to play the clown [04:03.83]And we dance while the sky crashes down [04:22.23]
