《Meurglys III(2000 Digital Remaster)》歌词

[00:20:49] Meurglys III (The Songwriters Guild) (2005 Digital Remaster) - Van Der Graaf Generator

[00:20:49] These days I mainly just talk to plants and dogs-

[00:20:49] all human contact seems painful, risky, odd,

[00:20:49] so I stay acting god in my own universe

[00:20:49] where I trade cigarettes in return for songs.

[00:20:49] The deal's made harder the longer I go on:

[00:20:49] I find me gone from all but the secret languages.

[00:20:49] If only I could phrase satisfactory words

[00:20:49] in conversation to make my passion heard....

[00:20:49] If only...

[00:20:49] Meurglys III, he's my friend,

[00:20:49] the only one that I can trust

[00:20:49] to let it be without pretence

[00:20:49] -there's no-one else.

[00:20:49] It's killing me, but in the end

[00:20:49] there's no-one else I know is true;

[00:20:49] there's none in all the masks of men.

[00:20:49] There's nothing else

[00:20:49] but my guitar...

[00:20:49] I suppose he'll have to do.

[00:20:49] Talking in tongues is easy when you know how,

[00:20:49] quite pleasing, but still nothing works out right.

[00:20:49] Pressurised lungs, heart bleeding, you'd better slow down

[00:20:49] and show that you can make it through the night.

[00:20:49] However dark it seems, the present is just the present,

[00:20:49] beyond it no future darkness lies concealed

[00:20:49] and through these desperate dreams,

[00:20:49] this longing for friends and comfort

[00:20:49] you know that in the end all will be revealed.

[00:20:49] When no more plants or dogs or rooms are there

[00:20:49] to hear you

[00:20:49] and no-one is left near you, then you'll see:

[00:20:49] in the end there's only you and Meurglys III

[00:20:49] and this is just what you chose to be,

[00:20:49] fool!

[00:20:49] Though I know all this is just escape,

[00:20:49] I run because I don't know where the prison lies.

[00:20:49] In songs like this I can bear the weight....

[00:20:49] I'm running still

[00:20:49] I shall until

[00:20:49] one day I hope that I'll arrive
