《Broken Butterflies》歌词

[00:00:00] Broken Butterflies - Lucinda Williams (露辛达·威廉斯)

[00:00:00] Written by：Lucinda Williams

[00:01:29] You wear your anger well and stand

[00:01:35] For all the world to see

[00:01:41] A heavy cloak and one gloved hand

[00:01:47] And no humility

[00:01:53] You stand inside the garden

[00:01:59] And feast on black cherries

[00:02:05] And swallow the manna from heaven

[00:02:11] And spit out

[00:02:14] The seeds

[00:02:17] You spread your anger on sharp edged knives

[00:02:22] Cut my skin and make it bleed

[00:02:28] Like pilate in his self righteousness

[00:02:34] You're a traitor

[00:02:37] And a thief

[00:02:41] Choking on your unplanned words

[00:02:47] Coughing up your lies

[00:02:52] Tumbling from your mouth a flurry

[00:02:57] Of broken butterflies

[00:03:04] Broken butterflies

[00:03:08] They rest their wings snapped in two

[00:03:16] On their way to certain death

[00:03:21] Their colors gold an' blue

[00:03:27] But the blood that flows I cannot hide

[00:03:33] The blood that covers me

[00:03:39] Nourishes

[00:03:42] The butterflies

[00:03:44] And they are healed and are set free

[00:03:50] I wish you had

[00:03:53] What Ruth possessed

[00:03:56] But then I don't expect that of you

[00:04:02] Grace and honor and faithfulness

[00:04:08] And the love that you refuse

[00:04:14] Will you ever learn to just forgive

[00:04:19] Will you open your beautiful eyes

[00:04:25] And bleed the way Christ did

[00:04:31] And fix the broken butterflies
