《Pity the Child #2》歌词

[00:00:00] Pity The Child - Josh Groban (乔许·葛洛班)

[00:00:05] When I was nine

[00:00:07] I learned survival:

[00:00:09] Taught myself not to care

[00:00:13] I was my single good companion

[00:00:17] Taking my comfort there

[00:00:20] Up in my room

[00:00:22] I planned my conquests

[00:00:25] On my own

[00:00:26] Never asked for a helping hand

[00:00:30] No one would understand

[00:00:36] I never asked the pair that fought below

[00:00:42] Just in case they said no

[00:00:50] Pity the child who has ambition;

[00:00:54] Knows what he wants to do

[00:00:58] Knows that hell never fit the system

[00:01:02] Others expecting to

[00:01:06] Pity the child who knew his parents

[00:01:10] Saw them fight

[00:01:11] Saw their love die before his eyes

[00:01:15] Pity the child that wise

[00:01:21] He never asked

[00:01:23] Did I cause your distress

[00:01:27] Just in case they said Yes

[00:01:33] When I was twelve my father moved out

[00:01:39] Left with a whimper

[00:01:41] Not with a shout

[00:01:46] I didnt miss him:

[00:01:48] He made it perfectly clear

[00:01:52] I was a fool and probably queer

[00:01:58] Fool that I was

[00:02:00] I thought this would bring

[00:02:05] Those he had left closer together

[00:02:12] She made a move the moment he crawled away

[00:02:17] I was the last the woman told

[00:02:22] She never let her bed get cold

[00:02:26] Someone moved in

[00:02:28] I shut my door

[00:02:31] Someone to treat her just the same way as before

[00:02:40] I took the road of least resistance:

[00:02:44] I had my game to play

[00:02:48] I had the skill and all the hunger

[00:02:51] Easy to get away

[00:02:55] Pity the child with no such weapons

[00:02:59] No defense no escape from the ties that bind

[00:03:04] Always a step behind

[00:03:09] I never called to tell her all Id done

[00:03:16] I was only her son

[00:03:44] Pity the child but not forever;

[00:03:48] Not if he stays that way

[00:03:52] He can get all he ever wanted

[00:03:55] If hes prepared to beg

[00:03:59] Pity instead the careless mother

[00:04:03] What she missed what she lost when she let me go

[00:04:08] I wonder does she know

[00:04:14] I wouldnt call:

[00:04:15] A crazy thing to do

[00:04:19] Just in case she said Who
