《Medicine Bottle》歌词

[00:00:00] Medicine Bottle - Red House Painters

[00:01:19] Giving in to love

[00:01:22] And sharing my time

[00:01:25] Letting someone into my misery

[00:01:35] I told it all step by step

[00:01:44] How I landed on the island

[00:01:50] And how I swim across the sea

[00:01:57] And it crosses my mind

[00:02:03] That I may awake to a knife in me

[00:02:08] No more breath in my hair or ladies underwear

[00:02:16] Tossed up over the alarm clock

[00:02:22] Blood dripping from the bed

[00:02:25] To a neatly written poem

[00:02:27] Heartfelt last line reading

[00:02:34] There is no more mystery

[00:02:40] Is it going to happen my love

[00:02:47] There is no more mystery

[00:02:53] Is it going to happen my love

[00:03:00] It's all in my head she said

[00:03:03] Morning after nightmare

[00:03:06] You're building a wall she said

[00:03:09] Higher than the both of us

[00:03:12] So try living life instead of hiding in the bedroom

[00:03:18] Show me a smile and I'll promise not to leave you

[00:03:28] It happened under a rainy cloud

[00:03:31] Passing through the dark south

[00:03:34] We went into a big house

[00:03:37] And slept in a small bed

[00:03:41] I didn't know you then

[00:03:47] As well as you of me

[00:03:53] We talked of our sad lives

[00:03:59] And we went on separately

[00:04:05] And we went on separately

[00:04:10] I found your overseas souvenirs

[00:04:18] Holiday greeting cards

[00:04:23] Those long forgotten high school fears

[00:04:30] It's all in my head I said

[00:04:33] Banging on the piano

[00:04:36] I've not been so alone

[00:04:38] I thought since kicking in the womb

[00:04:42] I drank so much tea

[00:04:44] I wrote my letters in kanji

[00:04:48] Around the block I walked and walked

[00:04:51] Pretending you were with me

[00:05:00] Not wanting to die out here

[00:05:12] Without you

[00:07:00] The hurting never ends

[00:07:03] Like birthdays and old friends we forget

[00:07:09] That this fresh blood and bone is human

[00:07:15] Trading phone lines

[00:07:18] Forever lines

[00:07:21] Unwilling to face

[00:07:25] That love is found on the inside

[00:07:30] Not the outside

[00:07:37] And like a medicine bottle

[00:07:42] In the cabinet I'll keep you

[00:07:49] And like a medicine bottle

[00:07:54] In my hand I will hold you

[00:08:01] And swallow you slowly

[00:08:03] As to last me a lifetime

[00:08:07] Without holding too tight

[00:08:10] I do not want to lose

[00:08:13] The thrill that it gives me

[00:08:16] To look out from my window

[00:08:19] And sky without houses

[00:08:22] From my world in a bedroom

[00:08:25] It's all in his head she read

[00:08:28] In a girlfriend's self-help book

[00:08:31] It's all 'cause he's making

[00:08:34] A war with himself

[00:08:37] Like two sides of a wall

[00:08:40] That separates two countries

[00:08:43] He shuts out the world he once knew

[00:08:47] To love you

[00:08:54] Not wanting to die out here

[00:09:07] Without you

[00:09:19] Not wanting to die out here

[00:09:31] Without you
