Song | The Modern Leper |
Artist | Frightened Rabbit |
Album | Quietly Now |
作曲 : Frightened Rabbit | |
A cripple walks amongst you | |
All you tired human beings | |
He’s got all the things a cripple has not | |
Two working arms and legs | |
And vital parts fall from his system | |
And dissolve in | |
Scottish rain | |
Vitally he doesn’t miss them | |
He’s too fucked up to care | |
Is that you in front of me? | |
Coming back for even more of exactly the same? | |
You must be a masochist | |
To love a modern leper on his last leg | |
On his last leg | |
I’ve crippled your heart a hundred times | |
And still can’t work out why | |
See, I’ve got this disease, | |
I can’t shake | |
And I’m just rattling through life | |
Well, oh, this is how we do things now | |
This is how the modern stay scared | |
So I cut out all the good stuff | |
Yeah, I cut of my foot to spite my leg | |
Is that you in front of me | |
Coming back for even more of exactly the same? | |
You must be a masochist | |
To love a modern leper on his last leg | |
I am ill but | |
I’m not dead | |
And I don’t know which of those | |
I’d prefer | |
Because that limb which | |
I have lost | |
It was the only thing holding me up | |
Holding me up | |
I’m lying on the ground now | |
And you walk in through the only door | |
Well, I have lost my eyesight like | |
I said I would | |
But I still know | |
That that is you in front of me | |
And you are back for even more of exactly the same | |
Well, are you a masochist? | |
You love a modern leper on his last leg | |
You’re not ill and | |
I’m not dead | |
Doesn’t that make us the perfect pair? | |
You should sit with me and we’ll start again | |
And you can tell me all about what you did today | |
What you did today |
