[00:00.00] 作曲 : Warren Ellis/Nick Cave [00:04.62]Darker With The Day [00:10.60]Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds [00:14.81] [00:38.48]As so with that, [00:39.56]I thought I'd take a final walk [00:42.60]The tide of public opinion had started to abate [00:46.50]The neighbours, bless them, [00:48.37]had turned out to be all talk [00:50.51]I could see their frightened faces [00:51.74]peering at me through the gate [00:55.22]I was looking for an end to this, [00:57.14]for some kind of closure [00:59.75]Time moved so rapidly, [01:01.44]I had no hope of keeping track of it [01:04.14]I thought of my friends [01:05.30]who had died of exposure [01:07.08]And I remembered other ones [01:09.21]who had died from the lack of it [01:12.59]And in my best shoes [01:14.29]I started falling forward down the street [01:17.48]I stopped at a church [01:19.23]and jostled through the crowd [01:21.56]And love followed just behind me, [01:23.23]panting at my feet [01:24.87]As the steeple tore the stomach [01:26.97]from a lonely little cloud [01:30.32]Inside I sat, [01:31.58]seeking the presence of a God [01:34.62]I searched through the pictures [01:36.10]in a leather-bound book [01:37.93]I found a woolly lamb dozing [01:39.89]in an issue of blood [01:42.24]And a gilled Jesus shivering [01:44.89]on a fisherman's hook [01:47.76]Babe [01:50.45]It seems so long [01:54.49]Since you've been gone away [02:04.48]And I [02:07.28]Just got to say [02:12.10]That it grows darker with the day [02:20.52] [02:23.72]Back on the street [02:24.94]I saw a great big smiling sun [02:27.86]It was a Good day and an Evil day [02:30.32]and all was bright and new [02:32.22]that most destruction was being done [02:32.66]And it seemed to me [02:36.25]By those who could not choose between the two [02:39.53]Amateurs, dilettantes, hacks, cowboys, clones [02:44.25]The streets groan with little Caesars, [02:47.09]Napoleons and cunts [02:48.76]With their building blocks [02:50.09]and their tiny plastic phones [02:52.52]Counting on their fingers, [02:54.18]with crumbs down their fronts [02:57.16]I passed by your garden, [02:59.44]saw you with your flowers [03:01.62]The Magnolias, Camellias and Azaleas so sweet [03:06.86]And I stood there invisible in the panicking crowds [03:09.75]You looked so beautiful in the rising heat [03:14.21]I smell smoke, [03:15.27]see little fires bursting on the lawns [03:18.64]People carry on regardless, [03:20.16]listening to their hands [03:22.65]Great cracks appear in the pavement, [03:25.30]the earth yawns [03:26.85]Bored and disgusted, [03:29.16]to do us down [03:31.34]Babe [03:33.28]It seems so long [03:37.30]Since you've been gone [03:47.28]And I [03:49.64]Just got to say [03:54.53]That it grows darker with the day [04:03.06] [04:39.19]These streets are frozen now. [04:40.81]I come and go [04:42.93]Full of a longing for something [04:44.61]I do not know [04:46.55]My father sits slumped [04:48.10]in the deepening snow [04:50.05]As I search, in and out, above, about, below [04:56.63]It seems so long [05:00.43]Since you went away [05:09.73]And I [05:12.33]Open the brain [05:17.44]That it grows darker with the day [05:25.04]
