《Snow White in Appalachia》歌词

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

[00:00:13] Half life

[00:00:18] She moves in a half life

[00:00:24] Imperfect

[00:00:43] From her place on the stairs

[00:00:49] Or sat in the backseat

[00:00:55] Sometimes you're only a passenger

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

[00:01:09] And there's snow on the mattress

[00:01:14] Blown in from the doorway

[00:01:20] It would take pack mules and provisions

[00:01:26] To get out alive

[00:01:39] There were concerts and car crashes

[00:01:45] There were kids she'd attended

[00:01:51] And discreet indiscretions

[00:01:57] For which she'd once made amends

[00:02:03] And there's ice on the windshield

[00:02:09] And the wipers are wasted

[00:02:14] And the metal is flying

[00:02:20] Between her and her friends

[00:02:52] She'd abandoned them there

[00:02:57] In the hills of Appalachia

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

[00:03:09] To lighten the load

[00:03:17] As soon as the sun rose

[00:03:22] The keys were in the ignition

[00:03:28] Following the tyre tracks

[00:03:34] Of the truck sanding the road

[00:03:58] There had to be drugs

[00:04:02] Running through the girl's body

[00:04:08] There had to be drugs

[00:04:12] And they too had a name

[00:04:19] And the adrenalin rush

[00:04:23] Had left her exhausted

[00:04:29] When under the blue sky

[00:04:35] Nothing need be explained

[00:04:53] And there is no maker

[00:04:59] Just inexhaustible indifference

[00:05:09] And there's comfort in that

[00:05:15] So you feel unafraid

[00:05:31] And the radio falls silent

[00:05:37] But for short bursts of static

[00:05:43] And she sleeps in a house

[00:05:48] That once too had a name
