《When the Bough Breaks》歌词

[00:00:00] 作曲: Agonist

[00:00:20] Alone... she was... and we face this journey alone...

[00:00:22] Helpless and weak, dependent on others' decisions and needs.

[00:00:27] But who's to say what is right?

[00:00:28] To protect a soul or to save a life?

[00:00:33] Is it a plague or a gift the ability to create in the way of the

[00:00:37] Gods?We are instinctual artists.

[00:00:41] Atlas had nothing on what we've got.

[00:00:43] When half a race carries the weight of existence and society shuns most circumstances, reputation screams to conform and cast out anything deviating from the norm.

[00:00:55] The only way to believe your lies is to spread them far and spread them wide.

[00:01:06] Creation like a limitless universe... but boundaries are what defines your size...

[00:01:20] Wake up. Remember nightmares by sharing them upon gaining consciousness.

[00:01:30] A flooded nation is soon to spoil so wave your flags west!

[00:01:41] Equality will never be attained when blaming

[00:01:45] Eve for the sins we've gained.

[00:01:47] A fighter untilthe end but sympathy only kicked in once she was dead.

[00:01:52] The sacrifice of a life, or rather an exchange, instead.

[00:01:58] Pity, regret and sorrow turned to hope, but even then the newborn winds up dead.

[00:02:27] Black white, wrong right.

[00:02:32] Quite a simple hypocrisy.

[00:02:42] Since when is an accident a responsibility?

[00:02:46] If you play

[00:02:47] God once,

[00:02:48] I can play

[00:02:56] God twice.

[00:02:58] Give me the decision and

[00:03:04] I'll handle the fight.

[00:03:06] Materialism now subsides.

[00:03:21] Tradition exists when no one has the guts to change.

[00:03:25] Someone asked me what difference

[00:03:27] One can make, one day.

[00:03:31] For we're the moss;the

[00:03:32] Earth the stone, so let us do as did the

[00:03:35] Tree. For silence will long be ignored, and action recognized quickly.

[00:03:52] What if?I should have...

[00:03:53] Hindsight always haunts me.

[00:03:54] A thosand

[00:03:54] Judases could never stop me.

[00:03:55] Slings and arrows disappoint and taunt me.

[00:03:58] But I'm not wrong, and

[00:03:59] I'll sacrifice everything just because

[00:04:01] I know the way since the beginning. ...hindsight always haunts me, and then the bough breaks.
