《Faithful Departed》歌词

[00:00:04] Faithful Departed - Chrity moore

[00:00:11] This graveyard hides a million secrets

[00:00:13] And the trees know more than they can tell

[00:00:17] The ghosts of the saints and the scholars will haunt you

[00:00:20] In heaven and in hell

[00:00:22] Rattled by the glimmer man the boogie man the holy man

[00:00:25] And livin' in the shadows in the shadows of a gunman

[00:00:28] Rattled like the coppers in your greasy till

[00:00:30] Rattled until time stood still

[00:00:32] Look over your shoulder hear the school bell ring

[00:00:35] Another day of made-to-measure history

[00:00:38] I don't care if your heroes have wings

[00:00:40] Your terrible beauty has been torn

[00:00:43] Faithful departed we fickle hearted

[00:00:49] As you are now so once were we

[00:00:54] Faithful departed we the meek hearted

[00:00:59] With graces imparting bring flowers to thee

[00:01:04] The girls in the kips proclaim their love for you

[00:01:09] When you stumbled in they knew you had a shilling or two

[00:01:11] They cursed you on Sundays and holy days of abstinence

[00:01:14] When you all stayed away

[00:01:17] When you slept there a naked bulb hid your shame

[00:01:20] Your shadows on the wall they took all the blame

[00:01:22] The Sacred Heart's picture compassion in his eyes

[00:01:25] Drowned out the river of sighs

[00:01:28] Let the grass grow green over the brewery tonight

[00:01:30] It'll never come between the darkness and the light

[00:01:33] There is no pain that can't be eased

[00:01:36] By the devil's holy water and the rosary beads

[00:01:39] Faithful departed we fickle hearted

[00:01:46] As you are now so once were we

[00:01:52] Faithful departed we the meek hearted

[00:01:57] With graces imparting bring flowers to thee

[00:02:03] You're a history book I never could write

[00:02:07] Poetry in paralysis too deep to recite

[00:02:09] Dress yourself bless yourself you've won the fight

[00:02:12] We're gonna celebrate the night

[00:02:14] We'll even climb the pillar like you always meant to

[00:02:18] Watch the sun rise over the strand

[00:02:20] Close your eyes and we'll pretend

[00:02:23] It could somehow be the same again

[00:02:26] I'll bury you upright so the sun doesn't blind you

[00:02:29] You won't have to gaze at the rain and the stars

[00:02:31] Sleep and dream of chapels and bars

[00:02:34] And whiskey in the jar Faithful departed look what you've started;

[00:02:44] An underdog's wounds aren't so easy to mend

[00:02:49] Faithful departed there's no broken hearted

[00:02:55] And no more tristesse in your world without end
