《I Love The World》歌词

[00:00:35] The roll of distant thunder breaks, the afternoon of silence wakes

[00:01:21] They hurry through from Petergate as if they know this dance

[00:01:24] In fury blind, I drive at night across the moors, the open roads

[00:01:36] Beneath the freezing starry skies, racing in some trance

[00:01:39] These cities are illusions of some triumph over Nature's laws

[00:01:44] We've seen the iron carcass rust and buildings topple into dust

[00:01:57] And as the waters rise, it seems we cling to all the rootless things

[00:02:04] The Christian lies, technology, while spirits scream and sing

[00:02:11] Oh God I love the world

[00:02:17] Well I never said I was a clever man but I know enough to understand

[00:03:09] That the endless leaps and forward plans will someday have to cease

[00:03:14] You blind yourselves with comfort lies like lightning never strikes you twice

[00:03:24] And we laugh at your amazed surprise as the Ark begins to sink

[00:03:27] This temple that is built so well to separate us from ourselves

[00:03:45] Is a power grown beyond control, a will without a face

[00:03:55] And watching from outside I wish that I could wash my hands of this

[00:03:57] But we are locked together here, this bittersweet embrace

[00:04:23] Oh God I love the world

[00:05:13] And if one day the final fire explodes across the whitened sky

[00:05:19] I know you've said you'd rather die and make it over fast

[00:05:25] With courage from your bravest friends, waiting outside for the end

[00:05:30] With no bitterness but an innocence that I can't seem to grasp

[00:05:36] I know somehow I will survive -this fury just to stay alive

[00:05:41] So drunk with sickness, weak with pain, I can walk the hills one last time

[00:05:53] Scarred and smiling, dying slow, I'll scream to no one left at all

[00:05:56] I told you so, I told you so, I told you so. .

[00:05:58] Oh God I love the world
