Song | The House That Dripped Blood |
Artist | The Mountain Goats |
Album | Tallahassee |
作词 : Darnielle | |
Look beyond the broken bottles | |
Past the rotting wooden stairs | |
Root out the wine-dark honeyed center | |
Not everyone can live like millionaires | |
Look through the air-thin walls | |
Tear up the floorboards, strip the paint | |
Go over every inch of space | |
With the patience of a saint | |
Grab your hat | |
Get your coat | |
The cellar door | |
Is an open throat | |
Look past the kitchen cabinets | |
Go through the chest of drawers | |
Scrutinize the casements | |
Rip the varnish off the doors | |
Dig up the laughing photographs | |
They're here somewhere or other | |
Take what you can carry | |
But let me tell you, brother | |
Still waters go stagnant | |
Bodies bloat | |
And the cellar door | |
Is an open throat |
