《Red Cow》歌词

[00:00:00] Red Cow - MeWithoutYou

[00:00:10] Before the Red Sea flood

[00:00:13] Beneath a cornhusk dawn

[00:00:15] We bid the Elkhorn run

[00:00:18] To a locomotive psalm

[00:00:21] Until the pale horse comes

[00:00:23] Along a rail withdrawn

[00:00:26] Clanging loudward on

[00:00:28] Clanging loudward on

[00:00:36] We bid the Elkhorn run

[00:00:38] Until the red cow comes

[00:00:41] I was a steadfast son

[00:00:43] With thoughts and hooves divided

[00:00:46] And on the arid ground

[00:00:48] Of thirsty Zion's hill

[00:00:51] Cold waters tumbled down

[00:00:54] Where the staff of Moses fell

[00:01:02] What Pharaoh spell

[00:01:04] What picture holds us now

[00:01:06] Behold the snake of brass

[00:01:09] The wind was blowing backwards

[00:01:11] Behold a golden calf

[00:01:14] Blighted leaves of Law

[00:01:16] Oh for the land we knew

[00:01:19] Before the frogs withdrew

[00:01:22] In the fragrant pomegranate blooms

[00:01:24] Where the tender locust flew

[00:01:37] Behind the milk-white tombs

[00:01:40] Behind the milk-tank cars

[00:01:42] We passed the North Platte yard

[00:01:45] On silver tracks unguarded

[00:01:47] Out past the sambar herds

[00:01:50] Out to the outcast birds

[00:01:52] In the rust of open wagons Lo

[00:01:55] The Blessed Virgin's likeness

[00:02:03] We watched the green figs fall

[00:02:05] From the Nebraska sky

[00:02:07] How much were even passive things

[00:02:09] Responsive to our watchful eye

[00:02:13] And let there be no doubt

[00:02:15] So many figs and pictures hold us

[00:02:17] In the wells of livestock vans

[00:02:20] With shells and sidewalk sands

[00:02:23] Iron mixed with oxygen

[00:02:25] As per the laws of chemistry and chance

[00:02:28] A shape was roughly human

[00:02:31] It was only roughly human

[00:02:33] Apparition eyes apparition eyes

[00:02:35] Knock apparition knock eyes apparition eyes

[00:02:59] Was he a violent man

[00:03:01] Well he had his genocidal moments

[00:03:04] Or penned by fiction's hand

[00:03:06] To whom could that phrase not apply

[00:03:08] How much are even lifeless sounds

[00:03:11] Responsive to our listening ear

[00:03:13] What Pharoah now what Paroah now

[00:03:16] Or Jew or picture holds us here
