Antebellum - 史逸欣

[00:22.050]In the fall, we circle through the leaves
[00:26.530]and talk about the little ones.
[00:32.720]And we smile, but never say too much.
[00:37.510]The moment always vanishing.
[00:43.850]One by one the neighbors' lights come on.
[00:49.220]Our October day is almost gone.
[00:55.760]
[00:56.560]I know the border lines we drew between us
[01:01.630]keep the weapons down,
[01:04.490]keep the wounded safe;
[01:07.080]I know our antebellum innocence
[01:12.230]was never meant to see the light of our armistice day.
[01:20.670]
[01:27.960]In the spring, we climbed the rolling hills
[01:32.520]and talked about our budding plans.
[01:39.130]And we smiled, our faces like a mirror
[01:43.530]showing us our secret sides.
[01:49.140]
[01:50.270]But then the fights:
[01:52.070]the sharp words splintering the night,
[01:55.680]how I couldn't be what you'd need?
[02:01.710]But oh how I could make you bleed?
[02:06.880]
[02:07.800]I know the border lines we drew between us
[02:13.270]keep the weapons down,
[02:16.070]keep the wounded safe;
[02:18.980]I know our antebellum innocence
[02:23.900]was never meant to see the light of our armistice.
[02:29.540]But how much would I give to have it back again?
[02:35.420]How much did we lose to live this way?
[02:43.520]
[03:07.290]You'll go home, I'll stay here,
[03:13.460]seasons keep on marching...
[03:18.750]I'll stay here, you'll go home,
[03:24.460]with only strangers watching...
[03:29.280]
[03:30.250]You'll go home, I'll stay here,
[03:35.480]seasons keep on marching...
[03:41.010]I'll stay here, you'll go home,
[03:46.470]with only strangers watching...
[03:51.770]
[03:52.790]I know the border lines we drew between us
[03:58.310]keep the weapons down,
[04:00.900]keep the wounded safe;
[04:03.840]I know our antebellum innocence
[04:08.840]was never meant to see the light of our armistice.
