Song | World Leader Pretend |
Artist | R.E.M. |
Album | Green |
作词 : Berry, Buck, Mills, Stipe | |
I sit at my table and wage war on myself | |
It seems like it's all, it's all for nothing | |
I know the barricades, and | |
I know the mortar in the wall breaks | |
I recognize the weapons, I used them well | |
This is my mistake. Let me make it good | |
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down | |
I've a rich understanding of my finest defenses | |
I proclaim that claims are left unstated, | |
I demand a rematch | |
I decree a stalemate | |
I divine my deeper motives | |
I recognize the weapons | |
I've practiced them well. I fitted them myself | |
(chorus) | |
It's amazing what devices you can sympathize, empathize | |
This is my mistake. Let me make it good | |
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down | |
Reach out for me and hold me tight. Hold that memory | |
Let my machine talk to me, let my machine talk to me | |
This is my world | |
And I am world leader pretend | |
This is my life | |
And this is my time | |
I have been given the freedom | |
To do as I see fit | |
It's high time I've raised the walls | |
That I've constructed | |
(repeat chorus) | |
You fill in the mortar. You fill in the harmony | |
You fill in the mortar. I raised the wall | |
And I'm the only one | |
I will be the one to knock it down |
