[00:00:00] Small Metal Gods - David Sylvian (戴维·西尔维恩)

[00:00:08] It's the farthest place I've ever been

[00:00:17] It's a new frontier for me

[00:00:27] And you balance things

[00:00:29] Like you wouldn't believe

[00:00:36] When you should just let things be

[00:00:47] Yes you juggle things

[00:00:50] Cause you can't lose sight

[00:00:54] Of the wretched story-line

[00:01:05] It's the narrative that must go on

[00:01:12] Until the end of time

[00:01:29] And you're guilty of some self neglect

[00:01:36] And the mind unravels for days

[00:01:45] I've told you once

[00:01:49] Yes a thousand times

[00:01:55] I'm better off this way

[00:02:04] I'm better off this way

[00:02:20] Where's my queen of hearts

[00:02:23] My royal flush

[00:02:28] I have cleaned and scrubbed her decks

[00:02:37] My suicide my better days

[00:02:46] There's nothing I regret

[00:02:59] I've placed the Gods

[00:03:02] In a zip-lok bag

[00:03:07] I've put them in a drawer

[00:03:14] They've refused my prayers

[00:03:16] For the umpteenth time

[00:03:20] So I'm evening up the score

[00:03:27] Small metal Gods

[00:03:30] From a casting line

[00:03:33] From a factory in Mumbai

[00:03:41] Some manual labourer's bread and butter

[00:03:49] And a single-minded lie

[00:04:00] Small metal Gods

[00:04:03] Cheap souvenirs

[00:04:06] You've abandoned me for sure

[00:04:14] I'm dumping you my childish things

[00:04:24] I'm evening up the score
