Song | Everyman's Daughter |
Artist | Over the Rhine |
Album | Good Dog Bad Dog: The Home Recordings |
作词 : Bergquist, Detweiler | |
Look inside for the elusive goldmine. | |
Broken glass and a little cheap wine | |
Is all that I can find. | |
And bundles of contradictions, | |
My heart full of loose connections, | |
Hands across my eyes. | |
I cannot disguise I'm everyman's daughter. | |
It's always the same old question. | |
Who am I and whose invention? | |
This armour's full of dust. | |
There's so much of us in each other. | |
If I hate you you're my best reminder | |
Of all I wish I was. | |
I hate you just because I'm everyman's daughter. | |
Who do you think that I am? | |
It don't matter long as we can understand. | |
I am hurting someone. | |
I am hurting someone just like, just like you. | |
Insulting the wounds of others, | |
My sisters, my brothers, | |
My vision's way too good. | |
I carry the inward aching. | |
Like you, I too am naked. | |
I don't look that good, | |
But this is flesh and blood. I'm everyman's daughter. | |
Look at all the blood we've spilt. | |
I can't deal with all this fundamental guilt. | |
I am hurting someone. | |
I am hurting someone just like, just like you. | |
I am. I am. I am everyman's daughter. |
