《A Better Ghost》歌词

[00:00:00] A Better Ghost - Butcher Boy

[00:00:19] The children settle down so safe and sound

[00:00:24] And when the mourning comes again I'm here to hold your head

[00:00:31] But I can see you feather the nest with a dusty hope

[00:00:36] You swoon and moan

[00:00:38] There's water in your bones

[00:00:41] So you can keep a dresser full of sympathy

[00:00:46] You're haunted by a better ghost than me

[00:00:51] It's sad to see you cry when we're so near

[00:00:59] Such happy pilgrims now so safe and sound

[00:01:04] And when the winter comes again I'm here to hold your head

[00:01:11] But I can see we feather the nest with rust and soap

[00:01:16] We coo and groan there's magnets in our bones

[00:01:21] So you can keep a dresser full of baby teeth

[00:01:25] You're haunted by a better ghost than me

[00:01:30] But take away the weight of where we've been

[00:01:35] And there'd be nothing left for us to talk about
