《Thick As Thieves(2005 Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Thick As Thieves (2005 Version) - Natalie Merchant (娜坦莉·莫森特)

[00:00:04] Remember how it all began

[00:00:08] The apple and the fall of man

[00:00:11] The price we paid

[00:00:14] So the people say

[00:00:19] Down a path of shame it lead us

[00:00:23] Dared to bite the hand that fed us

[00:00:27] The fairy tale

[00:00:29] The moral end

[00:00:31] The wheel of fortune

[00:00:32] Never turns again

[00:01:01] The worst of it has come and gone

[00:01:05] In the chaos of millennium

[00:01:09] In the falling out of the doomsday crowd

[00:01:16] Their last retreat is moving slow

[00:01:21] They burn their bridges as they go

[00:01:24] The heretic is beatified

[00:01:29] He'll teach the harlot's child to smile

[00:01:59] Wracked again by indecision

[00:02:03] Should we make that small incision

[00:02:08] Testify to the bleeding heart inside

[00:02:14] We cut we scratched

[00:02:16] We rent we slashed

[00:02:18] And when he opened up at last

[00:02:22] Found a cul-de-sac

[00:02:24] Deep and black

[00:02:28] Of smoke and ash

[00:02:59] The wicked king of parody

[00:03:03] Is kissing all his enemies

[00:03:06] On the seventh day

[00:03:10] Of the seventh week

[00:03:14] The tyrant's voice is softer now

[00:03:17] But just for one forgiving hour

[00:03:21] Before the rise of his

[00:03:26] Iron fist again

[00:04:53] I've come tonight

[00:04:56] I've come to know

[00:04:58] The way we are

[00:04:59] The way we'll go

[00:05:01] Come to measure this

[00:05:04] The width of the wide abyss

[00:05:08] I come to you in restless sleep

[00:05:12] Where all your dreams turn bitter-sweet

[00:05:17] With voodoo doll philosophies

[00:05:21] And day-glo holy trinities

[00:05:24] The crooked raft that leaves the shore

[00:05:28] Ferries drunken souls aboard

[00:05:31] Pilgrims march to Compestela

[00:05:34] Visions of their saint in yellow

[00:05:38] All follow deep in trance

[00:05:41] Lost in a catatonic dance

[00:05:44] Know no future

[00:05:46] Damn the past

[00:05:48] Blind warm ecstatic

[00:05:51] Safe at last
