歌曲 | Everything Rests on Your Small Shoulders |
歌手 | Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate) |
专辑 | Home After Three Months Away |
i remember when you thought you found god | |
painted a cross on your forehead | |
and wandered around my backyard like a saint | |
or a shepherd tending to his flock | |
the irony was not lost on me | |
and for all your newfound love | |
you still seemed like a bastard | |
then, you carried on like all the world was yours | |
to pity and to teach and comfort | |
(as if because, somehow, you forgave yourself, | |
that all your terrible deeds have been undone) |
