Neighborhood #4 (7 Kettles)

Neighborhood #4(7 Kettles) - Arcade Fire (拱廊之火)

I am waiting until I don't know when

Because I'm sure it's going to happen then

Time keeps creeping through the neighborhood

Killing old folks waking up babies just like we knew it would

All the neighbors are starting up a fire

Burning all the old folks the witches and the liars

My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids

But my heart keeps watching through the skin of my eyelids

They say a watched pot won't ever boil

Well I closed my eyes and nothing changed

Just some water getting hotter in the flames

It's not a lover I want no more

And it's not heaven I'm pining for

But there's some spirit I used to know

That's been drowned out by the radio

They say a watched pot won't ever boil

You can't raise a baby on motor oil

Just like a seed down in the soil you've got to give it time
