Men In A War歌词

作词 : Vega
作曲 : Suzanne Vega
Men in a war

If they've lost a limb

Still feel that limb

As they did before

Men in a war

If they've lost a limb

Still feel that limb

As they did before

He lay on a cot
He was drenched in a sweat
He was mute and staring
But feeling the thing he had not

I know how it is

When something is gone

A piece of your eyesight

Or maybe your vision

A corner of sense

Goes blank on the screen

A piece of the scan

Gets filled in by hand

You know that it was

And now it is not

So you just make do with
Whatever you've got

Men in a war

If they've lost a limb

Still feel that limb

As they did before

If your nerve is cut

And you're kept on the stretch

You can't feel your will

You can't find your gut

And she lay on her back
She made sure she was hid
She was mute and staring
Not feeling the thing that she did

I know how it is

When something is gone

A piece of your eyesight

Or maybe your vision

A corner of sense

Goes blank on the screen

A piece of the scan
Gets filled in by hand

You know that it was

And now it is not

So you just make do with
Whatever you've got

Men in a war

If they've lost a limb

Still feel that limb

As they did before

Men

Men men

In a war
War war

If they've lost

Lost lost

A limb

Limb limb

Still feel

Feel feel

That limb

Limb limb

As they did
Did did

Before
