[00:00:01] When The War Came (当战争来临) - The Decemberists (十二月党)

[00:00:02] Written by：Colin Meloy

[00:00:16] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:00:23] To cultivate to make us strong

[00:00:29] And hidden here behind the walls

[00:00:35] Are shoulders wide and timber on

[00:00:42] 'Til the war came

[00:00:48] 'Til the war came

[00:00:55] A terrible autonomy

[00:01:01] Has grafted onto you and me

[00:01:08] Our trust put in the government

[00:01:14] They told their lies as heaven sent

[00:01:21] 'Til the war came

[00:01:27] 'Til the war came

[00:01:33] And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul

[00:01:40] And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball

[00:01:48] And they're picking out our eyes by coal and candlelight

[00:01:56] When the war came the war came hard

[00:02:08] We made our oath to vavilov

[00:02:14] We'd not betray the solanum

[00:02:21] The acres of asteraceae

[00:02:27] To our own pangs of starvation

[00:02:34] When the war came

[00:02:39] When the war came

[00:02:45] And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul

[00:02:53] And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball

[00:03:01] And they're picking out our eyes by coal and candlelight

[00:03:09] When the war came the war came hard

[00:04:18] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:04:24] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:04:30] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:04:36] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:04:42] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:04:47] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:04:54] With all the grain of Babylon

[00:04:59] With all the grain of Babylon
