《Two Years Before The Mast》歌词

[00:00:00] Two years spent before the mast

[00:00:02] And no one knows the secrets that we're hiding

[00:00:05] If word got loose you'd face the lash

[00:00:10] And thirteen loops would hold me fast and silent

[00:00:13] Things are not always as they seem to be

[00:00:22] Outside us devil got poor persephone but they can't take

[00:00:30] They can't take you from me they can't take you from me

[00:00:37] Can't take you from me can't take you from me

[00:00:46] Mr jones done made a mistake it's all business

[00:00:52] Worse thing than the watery grave with poor rictus

[00:00:54] I found and bound a barrel of grain in the hold listless

[00:00:57] So hollow half out of dismay frayed princess

[00:00:58] I guess I've gone soft on my age they call it instinct

[00:01:01] The rebels get the devil to pay her the cat hissing

[00:01:03] Gonna start I know I oughta send her to the brig

[00:01:05] But strongest not scared and still bothered with calm winds

[00:01:07] And all things aren't what they seem to be and

[00:01:09] Small walls separating earth from eden

[00:01:11] One rib did give eve a meaning

[00:01:13] And one snip might could keep a secret

[00:01:15] With the short hair there and a change of clothing

[00:01:17] Fit right in and work soak and oakum

[00:01:19] Four fortnights she'll annul with the opium

[00:01:22] I might slip by but for her and boatswain

[00:01:24] Two years spent before the mast

[00:01:26] And no one knows the secrets that we're hiding

[00:01:29] If word got loose you'd face the lash

[00:01:34] And thirteen loops would hold me fast and silent

[00:01:37] Things are not always as they seem to be

[00:01:46] Outside us devil got poor persephone

[00:01:52] But they can't take they can't take you from me

[00:01:58] Clip of her shears twist of her hair to the air handsomely

[00:02:21] 'Til it floated down on the cloud

[00:02:25] Reflected on the glassy sea and the winds disappear

[00:02:33] Stripped almost bare bathe in a transfixed state

[00:02:38] And all things are what they seem to be

[00:02:43] She floated next to me just out of reach

[00:02:48] There is no knot so steadfast

[00:02:49] It won't go broke in the middle of monsoons

[00:02:51] You both don't show waiting watching

[00:02:53] With wet lips your clothes soaked through

[00:02:55] Blinded mind of the red sky and oxide clouds

[00:02:57] The injustice of feds made in wisconsin

[00:02:59] Blooms coupled up with the stem means there's no rain

[00:03:01] Once you poked a bridge against the bulkhead the world pitched

[00:03:04] Pulled to your sh*t with soft needs and the soap stone

[00:03:06] Mr jones is the poor soul who walked into a tempest

[00:03:08] And this time two poor fools

[00:03:10] Give them a whipping and head sail quirks quick lose

[00:03:12] The best men can end when the storm rolls through

[00:03:14] So we paid our keep for the sin of a reckless dream

[00:03:17] In the scene where secrets sleep

[00:03:19] Between me her the devil and the deep blue sea

[00:03:22] Two years spent before the mast

[00:03:24] And no one knows the secrets that we're hiding

[00:03:27] If word got loose you'd face the lash

[00:03:32] And thirteen loops would hold me fast and silent

[00:03:36] Things are not always as they seem to be outside us

[00:03:47] Devil got poor persephone but they can't take

[00:03:52] They can't take you from me

[00:03:55] They can't take you from me

[00:04:00] Can't take you from me can't take you from me
