《Little Children - reflection》歌词

[00:00:00] Little Children (小孩子) - Eva Cassidy (伊娃·卡斯迪)

[00:00:18] Dark night broken lights

[00:00:21] A boy on the corner with his hands held high

[00:00:25] He sees a gun sees an eye

[00:00:28] But he'd rather get shot than give it up

[00:00:32] Works for a violent man

[00:00:35] Who expects to get money when he sees him again

[00:00:39] And if he doesn't die on the corner tonight

[00:00:42] It won't take too long to catch him

[00:00:47] Children throw their lives away yeah

[00:00:54] A little more dying every day

[00:01:04] Little young man he ain't got a lot

[00:01:07] But he'd sell his whole world just to get what you've got

[00:01:10] He's not even sure if his body's hooked

[00:01:14] But if he gets a little higher he could fly away

[00:01:18] Little young lady watch her children play

[00:01:21] There's two outside and one on the way

[00:01:25] She hasn't seen her man in a thousand days

[00:01:28] Since the police came around and took him away

[00:01:33] Children throw their lives away

[00:01:40] A little more dying every day

[00:01:57] Children throw their lives away

[00:02:04] A little more dying every day

[00:02:46] Children throw their lives away yeah

[00:02:53] A little more dying every day

[00:03:03] Sirens scream through the empty streets

[00:03:07] Headed to the scene of another mistake

[00:03:10] One man hanging on the edge of life

[00:03:13] The other one thrown in a bag

[00:03:17] The children watch the children think

[00:03:20] That the bottom line is that nothing's free

[00:03:24] But it doesn't take much to end a life

[00:03:27] When the thoughts stop coming out straight

[00:03:32] Children throw their lives away

[00:03:39] A little more every day
