《Eggshells》歌词

[00:00:00] Eggshells (蛋壳) - Shawn Mullins

[00:00:18] She slees with the windows open

[00:00:21] Yet she's still locked safe inside

[00:00:26] And to block out the sounds of the city's commotion

[00:00:29] She turns her fan up on high

[00:00:34] Yea she lives just far enough away from home

[00:00:38] To see the whole scene

[00:00:42] And down the street the kids throw sticks and stones

[00:00:46] And end up on the the tv screen

[00:00:50] Yea they throw their sticks and stones

[00:00:54] And end up on the tv screen

[00:00:58] And she used to walk on these gracefully

[00:01:03] But now they crunch beneath her feet

[00:01:07] I guess she must be changin'

[00:01:11] There's just no way to keep it neat

[00:01:24] And her father still barks like a soldier

[00:01:28] Returning from victory

[00:01:32] But now eh's much older

[00:01:36] And that bark isn't as scary as it used to be

[00:01:40] Yea she watches his self torture

[00:01:44] No one left to abuse but himself

[00:01:48] But still her memory scorches her

[00:01:52] And she struggles to love herself

[00:01:57] Her memory scorches her

[00:02:00] And she struggles to love herself

[00:02:05] And she used to walk on these gracefully

[00:02:10] But now they crunch beneath her feet

[00:02:13] And i guess she must be changin'

[00:02:18] She never was to good at stayin' in her seat

[00:02:52] And this town grows hungry and restless

[00:02:56] Hungry for what i ain't sure

[00:03:00] But they're sweepin' the streets of the trash and the homeless

[00:03:05] And raisin' the rent

[00:03:06] And breakin' the poor

[00:03:08] But they're sweepin' the streets of the trash and the homeless

[00:03:12] And raisin' the rent

[00:03:13] And breakin' the poor

[00:03:17] And i used to walk on these gracefully

[00:03:21] But now they crunch beneath my feet

[00:03:25] And i guess i must be changin'

[00:03:29] There's just no way to keep it neat

[00:03:33] I used to walk on these gracefully

[00:03:42] I guess i must be changin'
