《The Spirit Of Man(K C W)》歌词

[00:00:10] The Spirit Of Man(K C W)-Jeff Wayne

[00:00:16] Listen, do you hear them drawing near

[00:00:20] In their search for the sinners?

[00:00:24] Feeding on the power of our fear

[00:00:27] And the evil within us?

[00:00:31] In carnation of Satan's creation

[00:00:34] Of all that we dread

[00:00:38] When the demons arrive

[00:00:40] Those alive will be better off dead

[00:00:45] There must be something worth living for

[00:00:51] There must be something worth trying for

[00:00:56] Even something worth dying for

[00:01:02] And if one man can stand tall

[00:01:05] There must be hope for us all

[00:01:09] Somewhere, somewhere in the spirit of man

[00:01:20] Once, there was a time

[00:01:21] When I believed without hesitation

[00:01:27] That the power of love

[00:01:28] And truth could conquer all

[00:01:30] In the name of salvation

[00:01:34] Tell me what kind of weapon is love

[00:01:37] When it comes to the fight?

[00:01:41] And just how much protection is truth

[00:01:45] Against all Satan's might?

[00:01:48] There must be something worth living for

[00:01:54] There must be something worth trying for

[00:01:59] Even some things worth dying for

[00:02:05] And if one man could stand tall

[00:02:08] There must be some hope for us all

[00:02:12] Somewhere, somewhere in the spirit of man

[00:02:17] People loved you and trusted you, came to you for help

[00:02:18] Didn't I warn them this would happen?

[00:02:20] Be on your guard, I said, for the Evil One never rests

[00:02:23] I said exorcise the devil

[00:02:23] But no, they wouldn't listen

[00:02:25] The demons inside them grew and grew

[00:02:25] Until Satan gave his signal

[00:02:27] And destroyed the world we knew

[00:02:27] No Nathaniel, oh no Nathaniel

[00:02:33] No Nathaniel, no, there must be more to life

[00:02:35] There has to be a way that we can

[00:02:35] Restore to life the love we used to know

[00:02:36] (No)

[00:02:36] Nathaniel, no, there must be more to life

[00:02:37] There has to be a way that we can

[00:02:38] Restore to life the light that we have lost

[00:02:45] Now darkness has descended on our land

[00:02:48] And all your prayers cannot save us

[00:02:52] Like fools we've let the devil take command

[00:02:55] Of the souls that God gave us

[00:02:59] To the altar of evil like lambs

[00:03:02] To the slaughter were led

[00:03:06] When the demons arrive

[00:03:08] The survivors will envy the dead

[00:03:13] There must be something worth living for

[00:03:17] No, there is nothing

[00:03:19] There must be something worth trying for

[00:03:22] I don't believe it's so

[00:03:22] Even something worth dying for

[00:03:23] If just one man could stand tall

[00:03:24] There would be some hope for us all

[00:03:25] Somewhere, somewhere in the spirit of man

[00:03:26] Forget about goodness and mercy, they're gone

[00:03:27] Didn't I warn them?Pray, I said, destroy the devil, I said

[00:03:29] They wouldn't listen, I could have saved the world

[00:03:30] But now it's too late, too late

[00:03:31] No Nathaniel, oh no Nathaniel

[00:03:32] No Nathaniel, no, there must be more to life

[00:03:33] There has to be a way that we can

[00:03:34] Restore to life the love we used to know

[00:03:35] (No)

[00:03:35] Nathaniel, no, there must be more to life

[00:03:37] There has to be a way that we can

[00:03:37] Restore to life the light that we have lost

[00:03:38] Dear God, a cylinder's landed on the house

[00:03:39] And we are underneath it, in the pit

[00:03:40] The Martians spent the night making a new machine

[00:03:42] It was a squat, metallic spider with huge, articulated claws

[00:03:44] But it, too had a hood in which a Martian sat

[00:03:45] I watched it pursuing some people across a field

[00:03:46] It caught them nimbly and tossed them

[00:03:46] Into a great metal basket upon its back

[00:03:47] Then, on the ninth day, we saw the Martians eating

[00:03:49] Inside the hood of their new machine they were drawing the fresh

[00:03:50] Living blood of men and women and injecting it into their own veins

[00:03:52] Aaah, it's a sign, I've been given a sign

[00:03:53] They must be cast out

[00:03:53] And I have been chosen to do it

[00:03:54] I must confront them now

[00:03:55] No, parson, no

[00:03:55] Those machines are just demons in another form

[00:03:56] I shall destroy them with my prayers

[00:03:57] I shall burn them with my holy cross, I shall

[00:03:58] The curious eye of a Martian appeared at the window slit

[00:04:00] And a menacing claw explored the room

[00:04:01] I dragged the parson down to the coal cellar

[00:04:02] I heard the Martian fumbling at the latch

[00:04:03] In the darkness I could see the claw touching things

[00:04:04] Walls, coal, wood and then, it touched my boot

[00:04:06] I almost shouted, for a time it was still

[00:04:07] And then, with a click, it gripped something

[00:04:08] The parson, with slow, deliberate movements

[00:04:09] His unconscious body was dragged away

[00:04:11] And there was nothing I could do to prevent it
