[00:00:00] Passion Play (受难记) - Janis Ian (珍妮斯·艾恩)

[00:00:00] Written by：Janis Ian

[00:00:19] She came from Dakota

[00:00:21] Though some say she hailed from the South

[00:00:27] He tried to believe but each time she would leave

[00:00:31] With the venom that dripped from her mouth

[00:00:36] Like some angel of old

[00:00:38] Bent on saving the soul

[00:00:41] Drugged to the knees he would pray

[00:00:44] To some rude Russian icon

[00:00:46] That twined like a python

[00:00:48] And blinded the sun night and day

[00:00:52] He'd say

[00:00:55] Please bring me peace

[00:01:01] He say you'll stay

[00:01:04] Just to leave me whole

[00:01:07] All of my soul your passion play

[00:01:18] Though she lies to amuse

[00:01:20] She lies to confuse

[00:01:22] Passion with vision and pain

[00:01:26] He lies for possession and time

[00:01:28] Though there's no time to gain

[00:01:34] Squandering feeling

[00:01:36] Constantly stealing away

[00:01:38] From the sound of her name

[00:01:41] Is like thunder and lightning

[00:01:43] Hiding the sound of the rain

[00:01:47] And she'd say

[00:01:49] Please bring me peace

[00:01:56] You say you'll stay

[00:01:59] Just to leave me whole

[00:02:02] All of my soul your passion play

[00:02:24] So he searches for truth

[00:02:25] In the beauty that once was her name

[00:02:31] Senselessly trusting in time to remind her

[00:02:35] Blind she came

[00:02:38] Suddenly rootless

[00:02:40] Fashionably useless

[00:02:42] Magically fruitless and time

[00:02:46] Like some Sunday scholar

[00:02:48] Who lives off the squalor

[00:02:50] Of yesterday's knowledge and fame

[00:02:54] And he'd say

[00:02:56] Please bring me peace

[00:03:03] You say you'll stay

[00:03:05] Just to leave me whole

[00:03:08] All of my soul your passion play

[00:03:19] Well some overdose

[00:03:20] And some wrap like a rose

[00:03:22] 'Round the slick perfumed nose

[00:03:24] Of high noon

[00:03:27] Burning their lips

[00:03:28] As they stoop low to kiss

[00:03:30] Some rich man's excuse for the moon

[00:03:36] I must have been lucky

[00:03:38] Got out with my body intact

[00:03:41] And tomorrow in tune

[00:03:44] Now it's this sense of time

[00:03:46] That wraps like a vine

[00:03:47] 'Round the neck of the sun and the moon

[00:03:52] He'd say

[00:03:53] Please bring me peace

[00:04:00] Say you'll stay

[00:04:03] Just to leave me whole

[00:04:06] All of my soul your passion play
