《State Hospital》歌词

[00:00:00] State Hospital - Frightened Rabbit

[00:00:17] The half back-flip conception a state hospital birth

[00:00:26] The most threadbare tall story the country's ever heard

[00:00:34] Brought home to breathe smoke in the arms of her mother

[00:00:40] With a blunt kitchen knife

[00:00:42] Who just lays in a submissive position

[00:00:45] Beneath the national weight and the slow arc of a fist

[00:00:52] Her heart beats like a breeze block thrown down the stairs

[00:01:00] Her blood is thicker than concrete forced to be brave she was

[00:01:05] Born into a grave

[00:01:24] And in the limp three years of board schooling

[00:01:27] She's accustomed to hearing that she could never run far

[00:01:32] A slipped disc in the spine of community

[00:01:36] A bloody curse word made pedestrian verse

[00:01:41] Spirits in graveyards and fingers in car parks

[00:01:44] She cries in the high street just to be heard

[00:01:49] A screaming anchor for nothing in particular

[00:01:52] At the foot of the f*ck of it and dragging her heels in the dirt

[00:01:59] Her heart beats like a breeze block thrown down the stairs

[00:02:05] Her blood is thicker than concrete forced to be brave she was

[00:02:12] Born into a grave

[00:02:27] The cheek of youth flushed red and turned gray

[00:02:30] Now she lies on the pavement she's helped to her feet

[00:02:35] All thighs hair and magpie handbags

[00:02:39] Saturday's uniform for the f*ck me parade

[00:02:43] Brought home to keep warm in the arms of a plumber

[00:02:49] Who's ruddy and balding

[00:02:52] Who just needs a spine to dig into

[00:02:55] A chest for the head and a hand for the holding

[00:03:01] Her heart beats like a breeze block thrown down the stairs

[00:03:09] Her blood is thicker than concrete forced to be brave she was

[00:03:16] She was

[00:03:34] Her heart beats like a breeze block thrown down the stairs

[00:03:43] Her skin is thicker than concrete forced to be brave she was

[00:03:49] She was

[00:03:51] A broken elevator anthem held between floors

[00:03:58] But if blood is thicker than concrete all of it is not lost

[00:04:05] All is not lost

[00:04:09] All is not lost

[00:04:13] All is not lost

[00:04:22] All is not lost
