《Who Fell Asleep In》歌词

[00:00:00] Who Fell Asleep In - Los Campesinos!

[00:00:17] She turned her back on the church and put all her faith in me,

[00:00:26] At the back of the chapel where I taught her to screw and to blaspheme.

[00:00:36] We turned our backs to the church with our trousers around our knees,

[00:00:44] While screaming the scriptures, she said I was her favourite heresy.

[00:00:56] In a note I read: "If you should go blind and deaf,

[00:01:02] I'll cleanse and I'll bathe you and I'll cook for you daily.

[00:01:08] I will take a dry ballpoint pen and trace on your chest

[00:01:13] All of the same conversations that we have now in bed".

[00:01:20] I don't mean to be selfish, but I think I'd sooner just be dead.

[00:01:34] Behind the tennis court, alongside the river, not a single live flower to see.

[00:01:43] This is the one girl who woke up from all that and now falls asleep next to me.

[00:01:51] But I swear now, every time that I kiss her, she feels her god breathe on her shoulder.

[00:02:01] It pains me, but I'm sure she's still yours.

[00:02:09] She said she wanted a sea burial, not grass and hypodermics to her hips.

[00:02:21] I pruned the ivy from your grandmother's tomb,

[00:02:27] More tender and careful than the superstitious

[00:02:32] Ripped you from your mothers womb.

[00:02:39] In a note I wrote: "I think too much about the end,

[00:02:45] But being around it made me feel like I'm coping.

[00:02:50] Now when I view the cemetery I don't see headstones, I see

[00:02:57] Rows of engraved milk teeth, hungry, waiting for me".

[00:03:03] And though I am fearful, I think I just crave the relief.

[00:03:16] Behind the tennis court, alongside the river, a paper flower's still a beautiful thing.

[00:03:26] This is the one girl who woke up from all that and now falls asleep next to me.

[00:03:33] But I swear now, every time that I kiss her, she feels her god breathe on her shoulder.

[00:03:44] It pains me, but I'm sure she's still yours.
