《Forest Fire》歌词

[00:00:00] Forest Fire (森林之火) - Mount Eerie

[00:00:19] The year moves on without you in it

[00:00:26] Now it is fall without you

[00:00:31] I had to close the windows and doors without you coming through

[00:00:38] I kept them open for as long as I could

[00:00:44] But the baby got cold

[00:00:50] I watched the calendar bulldoze

[00:01:09] This whole past summer was a lingering heat wave

[00:01:14] And I remember late August our open bedroom window

[00:01:20] Going through your things with the fan blowing

[00:01:23] And the sound of helicopters and the smell of smoke

[00:01:28] From the forest fire that was growing billowing

[00:01:31] Just on the edge of town where we used to swim

[00:01:36] They say a natural cleansing devastation burning the understory erasing trails

[00:01:44] There is no end

[00:01:46] But when I'm kneeling in the heat

[00:01:49] Throwing out your underwear

[00:01:51] The devastation is not natural or good

[00:01:56] You do belong here

[00:01:58] I reject nature

[00:02:01] I disagree

[00:02:04] In the hazy light of forest fire smoke

[00:02:07] I looked across at the refineries and thought

[00:02:11] That the world was actually constantly ending

[00:02:16] And the smell and roar of the asphalt truck that was idling

[00:02:21] Just out the window tearing up our street

[00:02:24] I missed you

[00:02:27] Of course

[00:02:29] And I remember thinking the last time

[00:02:32] It rained here you were alive still

[00:02:36] And that this same long heat that I was in contained you

[00:02:42] And in this same heat I open the window next to you

[00:02:48] On your last morning

[00:02:52] So you could breathe and then so you could ghost away

[00:02:59] And now so the room will hopefully

[00:03:07] Stop whispering

[00:03:14] The grind of time I'm not keeping up with

[00:03:21] The leaf on the ground pokes at my slumbering

[00:03:27] Grief walking around severed lumbering

[00:03:36] But slowly sovereignty reasserts itself

[00:03:45] I don't want it though

[00:03:52] And betrayal whines

[00:03:58] Who and how could I

[00:04:04] Live
