Planet Desperation 作词 : William Barnes 作曲 : Andrew Katz/Ethan Cossett/Seth Dalby/William Barnes I once thought that time was an ocean There'd always be a little more, somehow And I could be the lady, or I could be the carpenter But I don't think that now I can hear a fire with one voice screaming Miserere mei, Deus! Why couldn't Ziggy come back down again? Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus Lost on the shores of planet desperation Staring at the end I would go outside, I would go out But there's a world war Only go out, I only go out When there's a world war Pursued through the streets, I escape to the shoreline Where blue, plutonic winds whip the air Hoping and waiting to cry upon the shoulder Of someone who's not there When I get to the pearly gates, will I see you on the inside pointing at me? Mouthing "There he is Officer, there's the prick I warned you about" The best part of me is dying I'm running out of places to bury your body again Every song is a crime scene I walked into the ocean at Long Beach It spit out plastic and didn't treat me any different I deserve this heartbreak Love doesn't do what I want it to It doesn't change me and it doesn't change you Make peace with the dirt around you Make peace with the dirt around you Make peace with the dirt around you Make peace with the dirt around you, around you, around Writhing twisted piece of myself He sent me to send you to hell For all the damage that you've done For everyone misled by the light of your love Before you get to anyone else Hesitation on a wedding night, drag you down the aisle Nails drag down the sides to the bridal chamber They'll shut down this carnival ride To save the child screaming inside In spite of a thousand white lies His intuition would never be deceived This life is neither tender nor mild Invitation to the country club, lifeless to the touch Twin hysterical smiles Are you gonna run me down now? I know you're gonna run me down now If you're not gonna run me down now I know I'm gonna I know I'm gonna I know I'm gonna Would you believe me if I said I walked the stars? Drew constellations overhead And drank the hidden springs of Mars But the empire never ended And my gnostic soul cries out in question When will I be born? When will I be born? Last night I dreamed that I lost all of who I was I was in some ancient village, searching for the taste of blood And the roads were dry and dusty, there was terror all around I was sure I'd left some money on the other side of town I met a hurdy gurdy man with a monkey collecting change And his fingers grasped so tightly, I was sure that they would break He said "I am not your enemy, I hope we can be friends" "It's a tall narrow gate that we all pass through in the end" "And when you get back, tell me what's in there" "And if it knows how much we love it" "When you get back" "And when you get back" "Tell me what's in there" "And if it knows how much we love it" "When you get back" Feathers black brown, dragging through the mud To the crack in the fence where the last wave of night comes Devil angel on my left right waiting for the Chanticleer, Chanticleer, Chanti-, Chanticleer Chanticleer, Chan- Amazing grace that saved a wreck like me Clinging to the helm in a storm upon the sea Heart newborn with fear, lost inside the spray I see you coming towards me on the cresting of the waves Till the kids grow up alright Until hearts don't break anymore Until we don't spend the rest of our lives fixing everything that happened before Mothers don't be scared When a son, taller than you With two oceans in his blood walks back into the blue Till the kids grow up alright Until hearts don't break anymore Until we don't spend the rest of our lives fixing everything that happened before Mothers don't be scared When a son, taller than you With two oceans in his blood walks back into the blue You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again Cold feathers, sky feathers, open shoebox diorama Come back to my arms, beloved You and me, you and me, you and me You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love again, if you try again You can love, you can love, you can love, you can love You can love If you try You can love
