《Heart Still Beats》歌词

[00:00:00] Heart Still Beats (The Light Of Things Hoped For Album Version) - Brave Saint Saturn

[00:00:18] The girl in the alley kneels with exhaustion

[00:00:23] She's guarded by the skinny guy

[00:00:26] Who limps from some infection

[00:00:30] Behind a veil of bleached thin hair her eyes tell a story

[00:00:36] Like a photo of Berlin December 1944

[00:00:42] She's looking for a handout;

[00:00:45] She's been high for several weeks now

[00:00:48] She's too far gone for whoring

[00:00:51] And the money just gave out

[00:00:54] And her heart still beats inside

[00:01:00] And the blood runs in her veins

[00:01:06] A remanent of life remains

[00:01:12] And her heart still beats inside

[00:01:26] The man finally comes to the door;

[00:01:29] I've seen him several times

[00:01:31] He always looks pissed off

[00:01:34] And his sunglasses stay on

[00:01:37] I think he got his biceps and tattoos while in prison

[00:01:43] And it doesn't seem to bother him when he says

[00:01:48] "Go to hell"

[00:01:50] And his heart still beats inside

[00:01:55] And the blood runs in his veins

[00:02:02] A remanent of life remains

[00:02:07] And his heart still beats inside

[00:02:21] The thought it comes to my mind

[00:02:24] To somehow intervene

[00:02:26] But it could bring me trouble

[00:02:29] And what could I do anyway

[00:02:33] It's hard to be affected when it happens so often:

[00:02:38] To see a life unraveling through drawn venetian blinds

[00:02:45] I'm sickened by compassion

[00:02:48] I'm stifled by my limitations

[00:02:51] Anesthetic apathy take the pain away

[00:02:58] And my heart still beats inside

[00:03:04] And the blood runs in my veins

[00:03:11] A remanent of life remains

[00:03:17] And my heart still beats inside

[00:03:23] Oh God we need you here

[00:03:29] We're sinking fast and we don't care

[00:03:35] The evidence is all around me

[00:03:41] On both sides of my door

[00:03:46] Our hearts beat

[00:03:53] Our hearts beat

[00:03:59] Our hearts beat

[00:04:05] Our hearts beat
