《A Comet Appears》歌词

[00:00:00] A Comet Appears - The Shins

[00:00:18] One hand on this wily comet

[00:00:22] Take a drink just to give me some weight

[00:00:26] Some uber-man I'd make

[00:00:28] I'm barely a vapor

[00:00:33] They shone a chlorine light on

[00:00:38] A host of individual sins

[00:00:41] Let's carve my aging face off

[00:00:45] Fetch us a knife

[00:00:46] Start with my eyes

[00:00:48] Down so the lines

[00:00:50] Form a grimacing smile

[00:00:55] Close your eyes to corral a virtue

[00:00:59] Is this fooling anyone else

[00:01:03] Never worked so long and hard

[00:01:06] To cement a failure

[00:01:11] We can blow on our thumbs and posture

[00:01:15] But the lonely are such delicate things

[00:01:18] The wind from a wasp could blow them

[00:01:22] Into the sea

[00:01:23] With stones on their feet

[00:01:26] Lost to the light and the loving we need

[00:01:34] Still to come

[00:01:38] The worst part and you know it

[00:01:42] There is a numbness

[00:01:46] In your heart and it's growing

[00:02:28] With burnt sage and a forest of bygones

[00:02:32] I click my heels

[00:02:33] Get the devils in line

[00:02:36] A list of things I could lay the blame on

[00:02:39] Might give me a way out

[00:02:43] But with each turn

[00:02:44] It's this front and center

[00:02:48] Like a dart stuck square in your eye

[00:02:51] Every post you can hitch your faith on

[00:02:54] Is a pie in the sky

[00:02:56] Chock full of lies

[00:02:59] A tool we devise

[00:03:00] To make sinking stones fly

[00:03:07] And still to come

[00:03:11] The worst part and you know it

[00:03:14] There is a numbness

[00:03:18] In your heart and it's growing
