《Snow White in Appalachia》歌词

[00:00:00] Snow White in Appalachia - David Sylvian

[00:00:04] Half-life

[00:00:09] She moves in a half-life

[00:00:15] Imperfect

[00:00:34] From a place on the stairs

[00:00:40] Or sat in the backseat

[00:00:46] Sometimes you're only a passenger

[00:00:52] In the time of your life

[00:01:00] And there's snow on the mattress

[00:01:05] Blown in from the doorway

[00:01:11] It would take pack-mules and provisions

[00:01:17] To get out alive

[00:01:30] There were concerts and car-crashes

[00:01:36] There were kids she attended

[00:01:42] And repeat indiscretions

[00:01:48] For which she'd once made amends

[00:01:54] Then there's ice on the windshield

[00:02:00] And the wipers are wasted

[00:02:05] And the metal is flying

[00:02:11] Between her and her friends

[00:02:42] She'd abandoned them there

[00:02:48] In the hills of Appalachia

[00:02:54] She threw off the sandbags

[00:03:00] To lighten the load

[00:03:08] As soon as the sun rose

[00:03:13] The keys were in the ignition

[00:03:19] Following the tiretracks

[00:03:25] Of the truck sanding the road

[00:03:49] There had to be drugs

[00:03:53] Running through the girl's body

[00:03:59] There had to be drugs

[00:04:03] And they too had a name

[00:04:10] And the adrenalin rush

[00:04:14] Had left her exhausted

[00:04:20] When under the blue sky

[00:04:26] Nothing need be explained

[00:04:44] And there is no maker

[00:04:50] Just an exhaustible indifference

[00:05:00] And there's comfort in that

[00:05:06] So you feel unafraid

[00:05:22] And the radio falls silent

[00:05:28] But for short bursts of static

[00:05:34] And she sleeps in her house

[00:05:39] That once too had a name
