《Ballad in Plain D(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] I once loved a girl her skin it was bronze

[00:00:11] With the innocence of a lamb she was gentle like a fawn

[00:00:19] I courted her proudly but now she is gone

[00:00:26] Gone as the season shes taken

[00:00:36] Through young summers breeze I stole her away

[00:00:44] From her mother and sister though close did they stay

[00:00:52] Each one of them suffering from the failures of their day

[00:00:59] With strings of guilt they tried hard to guide us

[00:01:13] Of the two sisters I loved the young

[00:01:23] With sensitive instincts she was the creative one

[00:01:30] The constant scapegoat she was easily undone

[00:01:38] By the jealousy of others around her

[00:01:47] For her parasite sister I had no respect

[00:01:57] Bound by her boredom her pride to protect

[00:02:05] Countless visions of the other shed reflect

[00:02:11] As a crutch for her scenes and her society

[00:02:23] Myself for what I did I cannot be excused

[00:02:31] The changes I was going through cant even be used

[00:02:40] For the lies that I told her in hopes not to lose

[00:02:47] The could-be dream-lover of my lifetime

[00:02:58] With unknown consciousness I possessed in my grip

[00:03:06] A magnificent mantelpiece though its heart being chipped

[00:03:15] Noticing not that Id already slipped

[00:03:21] To a sin of loves false security

[00:03:33] From silhouetted anger to manufactured peace

[00:03:40] Answers of emptiness voice vacancies

[00:03:47] Till the tombstones of damage read me no questions but please

[00:03:54] Whats wrong and whats exactly the matter

[00:04:08] And so it did happen like it could have been foreseen

[00:04:14] The timeless explosion of fantasys dream

[00:04:22] At the peak of the night the king and the queen

[00:04:29] Tumbled all down into pieces

[00:04:42] The tragic figure her sister did shout

[00:04:50] Leave her alone God damn you get out

[00:04:56] And I in my armor turning about

[00:05:03] And nailing her to the ruins of her pettiness

[00:05:15] Beneath a bare light bulb the plaster did pound

[00:05:22] Her sister and I in a screaming battleground

[00:05:29] And she in between the victim of sound

[00:05:37] Soon shattered as a child neath her shadows

[00:05:50] All is gone all is gone admit it take flight

[00:05:58] I gagged twice doubled tears blinding my sight

[00:06:06] My mind it was mangled I ran into the night

[00:06:13] Leaving all of loves ashes behind me

[00:06:26] The wind knocks my window the room it is wet

[00:06:33] The words to say Im sorry I havent found yet

[00:06:41] I think of her often and hope whoever shes met

[00:06:48] Will be fully aware of how precious she is

[00:07:28] Ah my friends from the prison they ask unto me

[00:07:36] How good how good does it feel to be free

[00:07:43] And I answer them most mysteriously

[00:07:49] Are birds free from the chains of the skyway
