《We Need a Myth》歌词

[00:00:00] We need a myth

[00:00:03] We need an amethyst bridge

[00:00:08] We need a high hanging cliff

[00:00:13] Jump, fall and lift

[00:00:15] We can make it

[00:00:18] We need a myth

[00:00:21] We need a path

[00:00:23] Through the mist

[00:00:26] Like in our beds

[00:00:27] We were just kids

[00:00:31] Like what was said by our parents

[00:00:37] A myth

[00:00:40] I guess What we're after is just this

[00:00:46] A myth

[00:00:50] I guess What we're after is just this

[00:00:55] We need a myth

[00:00:58] I feel my heart's like a fist

[00:01:03] Words spilling out

[00:01:04] From the blessed lips

[00:01:08] Of any prophet or goddess

[00:01:13] I need a myth

[00:01:17] Brought back to life by a kiss

[00:01:21] Scrape away grey cement

[00:01:26] Show me the world as it was again

[00:01:30] As it was in a myth

[00:01:35] A red ribbon to reconnect

[00:01:39] The lady's head to her neck

[00:01:43] And to forget that her throat

[00:01:47] Was ever slit

[00:01:54] I guess What we're after is just this

[00:01:59] A myth

[00:02:02] I guess What we're after is just this

[00:02:07] Oh and I'm sick

[00:02:10] Of all these picture books that try

[00:02:18] To steal some old reflections for their light

[00:02:26] But desperate measures point to desperate times

[00:02:35] And that's why

[00:02:39] We need a myth

[00:02:58] We're cut adrift

[00:03:02] And we need a mass uplift

[00:03:06] The world is trembling and weeping

[00:03:11] Just at the point of believing

[00:03:17] In a myth

[00:03:20] The sun that shines on my head

[00:03:25] The moon that lights me to bed

[00:03:29] Were two identical twins

[00:03:34] Inside of a myth

[00:03:38] I heard the voice of a friend

[00:03:43] On Lethe's banks

[00:03:44] Wading in

[00:03:46] And he said

[00:03:48] Before I forget

[00:03:53] We need a myth

[00:03:56] As we lean in to kiss

[00:04:01] To get two nails

[00:04:03] Through the wrist

[00:04:06] To get covered in blood

[00:04:09] And to get covered in spit

[00:04:11] And to forgive.

[00:04:15] And if all we're taught is a trick

[00:04:19] Why would this feeling persist?

[00:04:24] And with the truth closing in

[00:04:27] I must insist

[00:04:30] We need a myth.
