《After the Scripture》歌词

[00:00:00] After the Scripture - Manchester Orchestra

[00:00:21] After the scripture

[00:00:26] We started to pray

[00:00:31] Holdin' our hands up

[00:00:36] Waitin' for change

[00:00:41] I hardly knew you

[00:00:45] You knew me the same

[00:00:50] So we built a shelter

[00:00:53] While we turned the weak away

[00:01:19] Your mother beside me

[00:01:24] Rattlin' her brain

[00:01:29] Makin' an offering

[00:01:34] Pacing the pain

[00:01:39] We took a picture

[00:01:43] Placed it in frame

[00:01:48] We built a fire

[00:01:51] And we turned the cold away

[00:01:56] And I know it's not

[00:02:01] What you desire

[00:02:05] This pain can't crumble

[00:02:10] Won't soon retire

[00:02:34] Everybody there was trying to

[00:02:37] Hide some great desire

[00:02:43] Put away the positives and

[00:02:46] Let that good girl die

[00:02:53] Everybody's prayers were turned into a gradual sigh

[00:03:00] So I paced around the backyard for awhile

[00:03:12] That was bee sting

[00:03:17] A speck in my eye

[00:03:21] A casual movement

[00:03:26] A thief in the night

[00:03:31] Now I can't forget you

[00:03:36] Sword in my side

[00:03:41] Candle that burned me

[00:03:45] Deliver me light

[00:03:48] And I know it's not

[00:03:53] What you desire

[00:03:58] This pain can't crumble

[00:04:03] Won't soon retire
