《Snow White in Appalachia》歌词

[00:00:01] Snow White in Appalachia - David Sylvian

[00:00:43] Half-life

[00:00:48] She moves in a half-life

[00:00:55] Imperfect

[00:01:14] From a place on the stairs

[00:01:19] Or sat in the backseat

[00:01:26] Sometimes you're only a passenger

[00:01:32] In the time of your life

[00:01:39] And there's snow on the mattress

[00:01:45] Blown in from the doorway

[00:01:51] It would take pack-mules and provisions

[00:01:57] To get out alive

[00:02:10] There were concerts and car-crashes

[00:02:15] There were kids she attended

[00:02:22] And repeat indiscretions

[00:02:28] For which she'd once made amends

[00:02:34] Then there's ice on the windshield

[00:02:39] And the wipers are wasted

[00:02:45] And the metal is flying

[00:02:51] Between her and her friends

[00:03:22] She'd abandoned them there

[00:03:27] In the hills of Appalachia

[00:03:33] She threw off the sandbags

[00:03:40] To lighten the load

[00:03:48] As soon as the sun rose

[00:03:52] The keys were in the ignition

[00:03:59] Following the tire tracks

[00:04:05] Of the truck sanding the road

[00:04:29] There had to be drugs

[00:04:33] Running through the girl's body

[00:04:38] There had to be drugs

[00:04:43] And they too had a name

[00:04:50] And the adrenalin rush

[00:04:54] Had left her exhausted

[00:05:00] When under the blue sky

[00:05:05] Nothing need be explained

[00:05:24] And there is no maker

[00:05:30] Just an exhaustible indifference

[00:05:40] And there's comfort in that

[00:05:45] So you feel unafraid

[00:06:02] And the radio falls silent

[00:06:07] But for short bursts of static

[00:06:14] And she sleeps in her house

[00:06:18] That once too had a name
