《The Baying of the Hounds》歌词

[00:00:01] Artist：opeth

[00:00:03] Songs Title：the baying of the hounds

[00:00:19] I hear the baying of the hounds

[00:00:22] In the distance I hear them devouring

[00:00:26] Pest-ridden jackals of the earth

[00:00:30] Diabolical beasts and roaming the forests

[00:00:33] In wait and constant protectors

[00:00:38] Calling you to sit by his side

[00:00:41] Your self-loathing image in his flesh

[00:00:45] A revelation upon which you linger

[00:00:51] His words are flies

[00:00:54] Swarming towards the true insects

[00:00:58] Feastin on buried dreams

[00:01:02] And spreading decay upon your skin

[00:01:05] His eyes spew forth a darkness

[00:01:09] That cut through and paralyze

[00:01:13] Casts light upon your secrets

[00:01:17] Forced to confront your enemies

[00:01:19] His mouth is a vortex

[00:01:22] Sucking you into its pandemonium

[00:01:26] Fools you with a helping hand of ashes

[00:01:30] Reached out in the false dismay

[00:01:33] His body is a country

[00:01:37] The cities lay dead and beyond despair

[00:01:42] Friends turned enemies unable to come clean

[00:01:47] In a rising fog of reeking death

[00:02:06] Everything you believed is a lie

[00:02:09] Everyone you loved is a death-burden

[00:02:13] So you take comfort in him

[00:02:17] And you are receptive to stark wishes

[00:02:21] No longer struggling to declare your stand

[00:02:28] You would inflict no harm to others

[00:02:35] They are unaware and in a loop of futile events

[00:02:42] You are everything they are nothing

[00:03:59] Drown in the deep mire

[00:04:06] Past desires

[00:04:14] Beneath the mire

[00:04:20] Drown desire now with you

[00:04:28] Drown in the deep mire

[00:04:34] Past desires

[00:04:42] Beneath the mire

[00:04:49] Drown desire now with you

[00:06:08] Lined up verses on dead skin

[00:06:14] The tainting lips of a stranger

[00:06:21] Resting upon hers

[00:09:09] And I embrace bereavement

[00:09:13] Everything beloved shattered anyway

[00:09:17] I would devote myself to anyone

[00:09:21] I would accept any flaws

[00:09:26] I am too weak to resist

[00:09:29] Tension vibrating with horror

[00:09:31] Finding the outcast in my eyes

[00:09:35] Pushing nerves on a puppet

[00:09:37] Endless poison in my veins

[00:09:39] Clean intent now tainted with death

[00:10:14] And so cold touch now inhumane

[00:10:17] Every waking hour

[00:10:18] Awaiting a reverie to unfold

[00:10:23] And now they are calling me

[00:10:24] Louder by the minute

[00:10:26] The baying of the hounds

[00:10:28] Calling me back to my home
