《Tandem(Album Version|Explicit)》歌词

[00:00:00] Tandem - Protest The Hero

[00:00:05] Everyone knows that Cancer

[00:00:08] Takes bites of every family

[00:00:12] And it eats up families whole

[00:00:18] Dance around the issue

[00:00:21] Take issue with the answers provided

[00:00:25] The past few years radiate with treatment

[00:00:28] But to every day she'll put her cap on and greet them

[00:00:32] She's got demons but you'll never meet them

[00:00:35] Yeah we hope one day that she can finally beat them all

[00:00:41] She laughs for us

[00:00:44] She laughs so we don't worry

[00:00:47] She smiles through the pain

[00:00:51] And keeps the details blurry

[00:00:57] My intentions are not to expose

[00:01:00] The depths of her trouble aren't mine to disclose

[00:01:03] But like evening rain on the petal of a rose

[00:01:07] It drips down to the earth and begins to compose

[00:01:11] And if there's one thing that remains

[00:01:13] So crystal clear to us

[00:01:16] It's that the wandering hands of the gods

[00:01:19] Are so goddamn mysterious

[00:01:26] Like there could be a justification

[00:01:32] For the lives it takes and the lives that it's taken

[00:01:48] This isn't a eulogy

[00:01:51] Or a requiem

[00:01:54] Just some words I've sketched out

[00:01:56] Cause I haven't said them

[00:02:01] This isn't about her father or brother

[00:02:07] Just a few simple words so she knows that I love her

[00:02:14] And tragedy will never disaffect her

[00:02:21] I hope she knows how much I respect her

[00:02:50] My intentions are not to expose in verse or in prose

[00:02:58] The depths of her troubles aren't mine to disclose

[00:03:08] But like evening rain on the petal of a rose

[00:03:11] It drips down to the earth and begins to compose

[00:03:22] A song worth singing

[00:03:29] A wound that keeps on stinging

[00:03:35] And one sinking feeling

[00:03:38] That's always worth clinging onto

[00:03:42] And a stone in a glass house

[00:03:45] That's always worth slinging

[00:03:59] She laughs for us

[00:04:02] She laughs so we don't worry

[00:04:05] She smiles through the pain

[00:04:09] And keeps the details blurry

[00:04:15] My intentions are not to expose

[00:04:18] The depths of her trouble aren't mine to disclose

[00:04:21] But like evening rain on the petal of a rose

[00:04:25] It drips down to the earth and begins to compose

[00:04:30] Saints walk the earth

[00:04:33] They don't patrol the skies

[00:04:37] They're the people right behind you

[00:04:39] Riding tandem through the night

[00:04:42] It's the comfort that's discovered

[00:04:46] Between two sets of eyes

[00:04:49] It's the hand that stills the other

[00:04:52] That shakes like candlelight

[00:04:56] Like candlelight
