《So Says I》歌词

[00:00:00] So Says I (Album) - The Shins

[00:00:07] An address to the golden door

[00:00:10] I was strumming on a stone again

[00:00:13] Pulling teeth from the pimps of gore

[00:00:16] When hatched a tragic opera in my mind

[00:00:20] And it told of a new design in which every soul is duty bound

[00:00:26] To uphold all the statutes of boredom

[00:00:31] Therein lies the fatal flaw of the red age

[00:00:33] Because it was nothing like we'd ever dreamt

[00:00:35] Or lust for life had gone away with the rent we hated

[00:00:39] And becase it made no money

[00:00:41] Nobody saved no one's life this time

[00:00:47] So we burned all our uniforms

[00:00:50] And let nature take it's course again

[00:00:54] And the big onese just eat all the little ones

[00:00:57] That sends us back to the drawing board

[00:01:11] In my darkest hours

[00:01:14] We have all asked for some

[00:01:18] Angel to come

[00:01:21] Sprinkle his dust all around

[00:01:25] But all our crying voices they can't turn it around

[00:01:31] And you've had some crazy conversations of your own

[00:01:46] We've got rules and maps and guns in our backs

[00:01:50] But we still can't just behave ourselves

[00:01:53] Even if to save our own lives

[00:01:56] So says I:

[00:01:57] We are a brutal kind

[00:02:12] 'Cause this is nothing like we'd ever dreamt

[00:02:15] Tell Sir Thomas More we've got another failed attempt

[00:02:19] 'Cause if it makes them money

[00:02:20] They might just give you life this time
