Planet Desperation歌词

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
