Thick As Thieves (LP版) - Natalie Merchant (娜坦莉·莫森特)

Written by：Merchant Na

Remember how it all began

The apple and the fall of man

The price we paid

So the people say

Down a path of shame

It lead us dared to bite the hand

That fed us the fairy tale

The moral end

The wheel of fortune

Never turns again

Never turns again

The worst of it has come and gone

In the chaos of millennium

In the falling out

Of the doomsday crowd

Their last retreat is moving slow

They burn their bridges as they go

The heretic is beatified

Teach the harlot's child

To smile

Wracked again by indecision

Should we make that small incision

Testify to the bleeding heart inside

We cut we scratched

We rent we slashed

And when he opened up at last

Found a cul de sac

Deep and black

Of smoke and ash

Deep and black

Of smoke and ash

The wicked king of parody

Is kissing all his enemies

On the seventh day

Of the seventh week

The tyrant's voice is softer now

But just for one forgiving hour

Before the rise of his

Iron fist again

Fist again

I've come tonight

I've come to know

The way we are

The way we'll go

And to measure this

The width of the wide abyss

I come to you in restless sleep

Where all your dreams

Turn bitter sweet

With voodoo doll philosophies

And day glo holy trinities

The crooked raft that leaves the shore

Ferries drunken souls aboard

Pilgrims march to Compestela

Visions of their saint in yellow

Follow deep in trance

Lost in a catatonic dance

Know no future

Damn the past

Blind warm ecstatic

Safe at last
