《The Ethernet》歌词

[00:00:00] The Ethernet - The Tangent

[00:00:37] As night comes to the city

[00:00:40] She's working hard on her computer

[00:00:50] She takes her work and bundles it up now

[00:00:55] And then she shrugs her shoulders

[00:01:04] Slowly plods her way downstairs

[00:01:08] Drops the key off

[00:01:10] Starts the motor

[00:01:18] Saves her life on tiny disks

[00:01:24] They're not backed up

[00:01:26] But she'll take that risk

[00:01:32] Give or take an hour or two

[00:01:35] He'll be heading in the same direction

[00:01:45] Swapping one desktop for another in the search for his reflection

[00:01:59] Figures dance before their eyes

[00:02:02] But keep the world outside at distance

[00:02:13] Help to keep outside the night

[00:02:16] Four floors up he knows she's gone

[00:02:19] He felt the movement in the ether

[00:02:23] With the city spread below

[00:02:26] He calls to her across suburbia

[00:02:31] The city will not carry his voice tonight

[00:02:44] Back at home the keys still click to the rhythm of their isolation

[00:02:57] The flicker on the VDU's got the same old shade of grey frustration

[00:03:11] Both the desktops look the same in the quiet of their bedrooms

[00:03:25] Help to keep outside the night

[00:03:28] Four floors up he knows she's gone

[00:03:31] He felt the movement in the ether

[00:03:35] With the city spread below

[00:03:38] He calls to her across suburbia

[00:03:49] Though the tiny icon lights up green in an empty room but goes unseen

[00:03:56] She can't hear his hifi Joni singing

[00:04:00] Everything comes and goes

[00:04:02] Pleasure moves on too early

[00:04:06] Trouble leaves too slow not tonight

[00:04:16] He never knows if he'll be found

[00:04:19] Running for the underground

[00:04:22] But she looks for him in there

[00:04:30] Scanners trace him through the park

[00:04:33] A red dot moving through the dark

[00:04:36] She waits for him in there

[00:04:44] All the anger all the pain

[00:04:47] Surfaces inside again

[00:04:57] All the passion all the sex

[00:04:59] All the heat of being

[00:05:02] Cyber ex

[00:06:17] Figures dance before their eyes

[00:06:20] But keep the world outside at distance

[00:06:30] She's waiting on the Ethernet

[00:06:38] But he's not connected yet

[00:06:44] Four floors up he knows she's gone

[00:06:48] He felt the movement in the ether

[00:06:51] With the city spread below

[00:06:54] He calls to her across suburbia

[00:06:59] The city will not carry his voice tonight

[00:07:12] Four floors up he knows she's gone

[00:07:15] He felt the movement in the ether

[00:07:19] With the city spread below

[00:07:22] Be calls to her across suburbia

[00:07:26] Pleasure moves on too early

[00:07:29] Trouble leaves too slow tonight tonight tonight tonight

[00:08:07] Everything comes and goes
