《For The Ashes》歌词

[00:00:00] For The Ashes - The Posies

[00:00:01] First one was born then denied

[00:00:05] Will anybody get her

[00:00:07] Second one is learning her all lines

[00:00:10] And the actions

[00:00:13] Third one has been trying all her life

[00:00:17] To get out of the ghetto

[00:00:20] Fourth one is leaving the fire

[00:00:23] For the ashes for the

[00:00:26] Which fire is the fire

[00:00:28] That calls you out into the light

[00:00:33] Indifference or spite

[00:00:38] First thing I'm gonna do to this town

[00:00:42] When I get a little credit

[00:00:44] Take my money and stick it in the ground

[00:00:47] Buy some glasses

[00:00:50] Education prepares me for the fight

[00:00:54] When they try to turn their words on me

[00:00:56] Cities turned into a refuge for the ashes

[00:00:59] For the ashes for the

[00:01:02] Which fire is the fire

[00:01:04] That turns you into a sharper eye

[00:01:10] Has anybody tried

[00:01:15] Someday I'm gonna wake up dead

[00:01:19] I know

[00:01:22] My breath released into the open sky

[00:01:27] Please tighten that bandage

[00:01:29] Round my head one last time

[00:01:34] Let go of my hand and close my eyes

[00:01:39] Time's coming there's light under the door

[00:01:43] Footsteps in the exterior hallway

[00:01:46] Coming with a stethoscope a syringe

[00:01:50] Witness I call you all my wealth

[00:01:55] You're my lands

[00:01:57] This little country of my own true blood

[00:02:03] In this kingdom with no king none at all

[00:02:09] Or just a daughter and a son in law

[00:02:15] Witness can you write me down these words

[00:02:19] My darlings take your time

[00:02:21] Cause all things will fall all things must fall

[00:02:27] Think I'm gonna just sit here for awhile

[00:02:31] Gotta try to see what happened

[00:02:33] But I'll still stand right up to your face

[00:02:37] And 40 lashes

[00:02:40] But I never would've worried and worked that hard

[00:02:43] If they ever would have told me so

[00:02:46] That I was just working all this time

[00:02:49] For ashes for the

[00:02:52] What fool is on the fire escape

[00:02:54] When the fire is going out

[00:02:59] Is anybody's doubt

[00:03:05] I know it seems like

[00:03:07] Nothing changes in your way

[00:03:12] Just take your time and

[00:03:14] Know that all things will fall
