《Rally the Troops! Poke Holes in Their Defenses! Line Our Coffers With Their Coffins! (Original Version)》歌词

[00:04:23] Rally the Troops! Poke Holes in Their Defenses! Line Our Coffers With Their Coffins! (Original Version) - Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate)

[00:04:23] It flew out your mouth,

[00:04:23] "You can drive me anywhere

[00:04:23] Just drive me anywhere but here tonight"

[00:04:23] The length of your neck

[00:04:23] Is a lonely parapet;

[00:04:23] You are armed to the teeth and looking for a fight.

[00:04:23] It was in your mother's dress that the temper finally

[00:04:23] Showed signs of slowing down.

[00:04:23] Your fingers traced the route of the seam

[00:04:23] Like a map of your body that landed just shy of your knees

[00:04:23] It fell the same way on your mother-

[00:04:23] As she was, at that age, the same height as you.

[00:04:23] She never faced a fear quite as sharp,

[00:04:23] But her sister did and it broke her heart

[00:04:23] What came out your mouth next

[00:04:23] Was a series of mistakes

[00:04:23] You had taken all you could take,

[00:04:23] And here tonight,

[00:04:23] The weight of their stares,

[00:04:23] Well they could bury you alive.

[00:04:23] You are worn to the bone,

[00:04:23] And looking to disappear.

[00:04:23] And who could blame you?

[00:04:23] Who could blame you?

[00:04:23] And who could blame you?

[00:04:23] Who could blame you?

[00:04:23] It was in your mother's dress that the temper finally died out,

[00:04:23] And gave way to the fear that keeps its company with such a loud mouth!

[00:04:23] Llike the sound of an earthquake

[00:04:23] Tearing out terra firma's mouth

[00:04:23] You must not let it in,

[00:04:23] And keep your head up on top of your body.

[00:04:23] There are far, far worse things than this,

[00:04:23] So we must move with purpose

[00:04:23] And do what has to be done.
