[00:00.00] 作词 : Gray
[00:00.00] A Century Ends
[00:13.02] David Gray
[00:15.77] By JJ
[00:24.52] Cast your eyes into the distance
[00:30.28] Try to focus on it all
[00:35.93] Find a spirit of resistance
[00:41.77] Instead of pride before the fall
[00:47.96] Forge some opposition
[00:53.42] From disparate strands
[00:59.41] It ain't the prettiest position
[01:03.64] As a century ends
[01:10.07]
[01:11.07] Unstable situation
[01:17.02] Faces made of wax
[01:22.68] Streams of melting glass
[01:28.63] Sheets of butchered facts
[01:34.51] The roar of the machine
[01:39.78] Hooded hearts and jewelled hands
[01:45.78] And anger spilling out like gasoline
[01:49.96] As a century ends
[01:53.92]
[01:54.68] Everything i seen, everything that i heard,
[02:00.01] Ain't even the tip of the iceberg
[02:06.14] Fire down memory lane
[02:11.64] So pass me my rose tinted glasses again
[02:23.23]
[02:34.00] Through a fog of contradiction
[02:40.23] Out to the lake of tears
[02:45.98] See society admiring its own reflection
[02:51.75] Chase a light that shines and disappears
[02:57.92] Careful what you say 'cos reality offends
[03:08.70] Just sit back and let your soul decay
[03:13.15] As a century ends
[03:26.96]
[03:36.85] And its easy to get weary
[03:43.20] As you fight to get it done
[03:49.21] gainst a popular theory
[03:54.74] That it's over 'fore it's even begun
[04:00.55] Strain the limit of compassion
[04:06.25] Tend a wound that never mends
[04:11.76] And honesty still out of fashion
[04:16.41] As a century ends
[04:22.47] As a century ends
[04:27.70] As a century ends....
