歌曲 | The Keeper |
歌手 | Chris Cornell |
专辑 | Songbook |
I come from far away | |
My boots don’t know this ground | |
But they know it’s real | |
It doesn’t take too long | |
For this road to become | |
A battlefield | |
And before I let one more fire go out | |
Understand that I won’t give one inch of ground | |
From beneath yours and my feet | |
Whatever the price happens to be | |
I may not be the keeper of the flame | |
But I am the keeper | |
Beauty and truth collide | |
Where love meets genocide | |
Where laughter meets fear | |
Confusion all around | |
And as I try to feed these mouths | |
That have never known singing | |
And before I let one more tear hit the ground | |
I will be the one standing between you and the sound | |
Of the rounds echoing out | |
Out of the dark | |
The smoke and the spark | |
Aimed at the heart of the flame | |
I am the keeper ooooh | |
I cannot see the light | |
At the end of the tunnel tonight | |
My eyes are weary | |
And before I let one more life get erased | |
From the ashes I will rise for you and the ghosts | |
Of the names the faces and frames | |
The love and the pain for you I remain | |
Though I’m not worthy of being | |
The keeper of the flame | |
I am the keeper yeahhhhh | |
I am the keeper. |
I come from far away | |
My boots don' t know this ground | |
But they know it' s real | |
It doesn' t take too long | |
For this road to become | |
A battlefield | |
And before I let one more fire go out | |
Understand that I won' t give one inch of ground | |
From beneath yours and my feet | |
Whatever the price happens to be | |
I may not be the keeper of the flame | |
But I am the keeper | |
Beauty and truth collide | |
Where love meets genocide | |
Where laughter meets fear | |
Confusion all around | |
And as I try to feed these mouths | |
That have never known singing | |
And before I let one more tear hit the ground | |
I will be the one standing between you and the sound | |
Of the rounds echoing out | |
Out of the dark | |
The smoke and the spark | |
Aimed at the heart of the flame | |
I am the keeper ooooh | |
I cannot see the light | |
At the end of the tunnel tonight | |
My eyes are weary | |
And before I let one more life get erased | |
From the ashes I will rise for you and the ghosts | |
Of the names the faces and frames | |
The love and the pain for you I remain | |
Though I' m not worthy of being | |
The keeper of the flame | |
I am the keeper yeahhhhh | |
I am the keeper. |
