《Rosemont》歌词

[00:00:00] Rosemont - Frontier Ruckus

[00:00:14] Oh I know everybody here's been

[00:00:18] Dying to get back to Rosemont Street

[00:00:21] But that road was made of flesh

[00:00:23] And now it's dead and now it's beat

[00:00:27] The sun burnt past every rock

[00:00:30] Across the street from that cracked lot

[00:00:33] Detroit air just breaths away

[00:00:35] And that sun died in a petrified way

[00:00:39] Onto the driveway

[00:00:42] Table napkins blown away

[00:00:45] Into the alleyway and summer

[00:00:49] Is the strangest time of day

[00:01:03] I've seen beauty far upstate

[00:01:06] A century is all it takes

[00:01:13] To turn a homestead to the ground

[00:01:16] But there is one thing that I found

[00:01:19] I ain't seen these things in vain

[00:01:28] And deep outside the siren's wailing

[00:01:31] Far from me on the still night

[00:01:34] Through the yards the spores are sailing

[00:01:37] On the toes of those dreams in flight

[00:01:42] To the north back and forth

[00:01:46] Our moments make us off-ramp islands

[00:01:49] Where language tramps falls to silence

[00:01:54] To forget the T V set

[00:01:58] And images of stranger feelings rape

[00:02:01] Our walls and wallpaper our ceilings

[00:02:16] I've seen beauty far upstate

[00:02:19] A century is all it takes

[00:02:26] To turn a homestead to the ground

[00:02:29] But there is one thing that I found

[00:02:32] I ain't seen these things in vain

[00:02:43] I was born to the lawnmower's crying

[00:02:50] And the drying of our gilded lot

[00:02:55] Trust in God when our roofs are sighing again

[00:03:02] And the hill is crying thanks a lot

[00:03:07] Watertowers are drunker than grandfathers

[00:03:15] But they're equally happy

[00:03:19] All that's golden was once eternally unfoldin'

[00:03:26] Now dusktime is the glimpse to see it

[00:03:39] But I'm a burstin' piece

[00:03:41] A questionin' priest

[00:03:42] Like a politician out east

[00:03:45] I've seen swimming pools full of darkness

[00:03:48] On the brightest moonlit nights

[00:03:51] And I've seen fairgrounds

[00:03:53] Heard their sounds

[00:03:54] In that ground lies just what I've found

[00:03:57] Basements are now all we got

[00:04:00] With decade shades and days that rot

[00:04:03] Landbirds flew over my head

[00:04:06] Flag at half mast no one is dead

[00:04:09] Oh I know that that's not true

[00:04:12] But we're so desp'rate

[00:04:13] What else can we do

[00:04:27] I've seen beauty far upstate

[00:04:30] A century is all it takes

[00:04:37] To turn a homestead to the ground

[00:04:40] But there is one thing that I found

[00:04:43] I ain't seen these things in vain

[00:04:50] I ain't seen these things in vain

[00:04:56] I ain't seen these things in vain

[00:05:02] I ain't seen these things in vain

[00:05:08] And everybody dying here has

[00:05:12] Made it back to Rosemont Street

[00:05:15] The roses shake the sidewalk aches

[00:05:19] And Detroit air is hissing at our feet
