Song | Don't Let Me Die Still Wondering |
Artist | Flogging Molly |
Album | Within a Mile of Home |
作曲 : Casey, Hensley, King, Maxwell ... | |
I walk these streets where my soleless feet | |
Haunt the ground where it was I once tread | |
On Grafton's Arcade pours the rich commerce rain | |
Though the voices I no longer hear speak | |
Heaven's to blame, so on that I'll abstain | |
Best clean the church from my cracked fingernail | |
But don't let me die still wondering | |
What it was I left behind | |
From God's golden plate, begrudgers they eat | |
Until their bellies burst, ignorance bliss | |
Never they roam, a wanderless home | |
Is as far as their sorry eye sees | |
Give me a rusty old coat, well-trampled and soaked | |
Until these ashes and blood mingle deep | |
But don't let me die still wondering | |
What it was I left behind | |
Though I've been that face before, slammed every open door | |
Squandered once scattered beliefs | |
So when the waves come crashing in, I'll swim as the ocean swims | |
Out with the morning tide and back for my tea | |
So I'll do as I please like the well-tempered breeze | |
Blowing which way I see fit | |
I'll gray with the clay, seven days 'till the day | |
When they throw me on the potter's scrap heap | |
But take my advice, you'll have to bury me twice | |
'Cause the first time I won't rest easily | |
But don't let me die still wondering | |
What it was I left behind | |
So don't let me die still wondering | |
What it was I left behind | |
I want a race well-run, ahead of the gun | |
With a dance before the far finish line | |
So now life-long regrets, only well-feathered steps | |
Until these shoes I can no longer shine | |
But don't let me die still wandering | |
For the love I left behind |
