《Surrender Under Protest》歌词

[00:00:00] Surrender Under Protest (被迫投降) - Drive-By Truckers

[00:00:14] From the comfort zone of history

[00:00:17] On the lips of trusted loved ones

[00:00:21] To the lonely fragile minds of angry youths

[00:00:28] No sooner was it over

[00:00:31] Than the memory made it nobler

[00:00:34] The selective means by which to point the view

[00:00:41] Compelled but not defeated

[00:00:48] Surrender under protest if you must

[00:00:55] Compelled but not defeated

[00:01:17] If it's all you can remember

[00:01:20] Then it's been that way forever

[00:01:23] And for six long generations it's been told

[00:01:30] But among the fallen was tradition

[00:01:34] That tradition was the mission

[00:01:37] And that the wrongness of the sin was not the goal

[00:01:44] Compelled but not defeated

[00:01:52] Surrender under protest if you must

[00:01:58] Compelled but not defeated

[00:02:20] Does the color really matter

[00:02:23] On the face you blame for failure

[00:02:26] On the shamin' for a battle's losing cause

[00:02:34] If the victims and aggressors

[00:02:37] Just remain each others others

[00:02:40] And the instigators never fight their own

[00:02:58] Compelled but not defeated

[00:03:05] Surrender under protest if you must

[00:03:12] Compelled but not defeated

[00:03:20] Surrender under protest if you must

[00:03:26] Surrender under protest if you must
