Lyrics

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Wild Beasts
[00:00.000] 作词 : Wild Beasts
[00:00.00]
[00:28.26] I'm taping up the windows and the doors
[00:36.32] I'm nailing all my pretty things to the floor
[00:41.44]
[00:44.45] Eyes like fire
[00:48.38] A tempest in the water
[00:52.77] Eyes like mine
[00:56.96] A temper like your mother's
[01:00.07]
[01:00.89] Daughter, please, it's me
[01:05.04] Tell me what you've seen
[01:08.45] Daughter, please spare me
[01:13.61] Old men's voices screaming
[01:17.90] And soon we'll see
[01:21.98] What you really need
[01:26.24] All the pretty children sharpening their blades
[01:30.43] Where my daughter passes only ruins remain
[01:36.06]
[01:43.05] She's walking through the cracks in the walls
[01:51.12] She's walking across the chicken bones on the floor
[01:56.73]
[01:59.40] Just a little girl
[02:03.53] Jesus was a woman
[02:08.02] Trust a little girl
[02:12.13] And Lot who knew his daughters
[02:15.20]
[02:15.80] Daughter, please, it's me
[02:20.12] Tell me what you've seen
[02:23.68] Daughter, please spare me
[02:28.95] Old men's voices screaming
[02:32.86] And soon we'll sleep
[02:37.27] In pieces on the street
[02:41.43] All the pretty children sharpening their blades
[02:45.22] Where my daughter passes only ruins remain
[02:51.39]
[02:56.75] From the egg
[02:59.71] Broke my little girl
[03:04.79] Destroyer of worlds
