You're not unlucky, you're just not very smart.[00:00:00]
These things will never leave you - they're as close as you can get[00:00:03]
To a blueprint for the future - but you can call it fate.[00:00:06]
It's like these days I have to write down almost every thought I've held,[00:00:13]
So scared I am becoming of forgetting how it felt,[00:00:16]
And these fears they will unravel me one day,[00:00:20]
But still I am afraid.[00:00:22]
But I'm blessed - [00:00:26]
Just to be, more or less - [00:00:29]
Standing in the afterglow of rapture with the words the rapture left.[00:00:33]
Oh blessed - [00:00:39]
Just to be, more or less - [00:00:42]
Standing in the afterglow of rapture with the words the rapture left.[00:00:46]
Lyrics by 小九哈哈[00:00:53]
Now you're blessed amongst all women,[00:00:56]
Now a man who's very good,[00:00:57]
He tells you how you feel until your life is understood,[00:00:59]
And he leads you through it arm in arm as though[00:01:02]
There was a map to guide the way.[00:01:05]
Now you write because you love him, now you write because he's kind,[00:01:09]
You write so much, you look up and you wrote yourself behind,[00:01:12]
And you're standing in a labyrinth of paper and the map has been erased.[00:01:16]
But you're blessed - [00:01:22]
Just to be, more or less - [00:01:25]
Standing in the afterglow of rapture with the words the rapture left.[00:01:29]
Are you blessed?[00:01:35]
Just to be, more or less?[00:01:39]
Now you're standing in the afterglow of rapture, but there is no rapture left.[00:01:42]
Oh come, and we will celebrate the things that make us real, [00:02:02]
The things that break us open, and the things that make us feel[00:02:05]
Like these accidental meetings up and partings of the way[00:02:08]
Are not so much our choice but in the blood of how we're made,[00:02:12]
It's like the way I have to write down almost everything I see,[00:02:15]
So that the record does obscure the thing the record used to be,[00:02:18]
And I know I'm not unlucky,[00:02:20]
I was just born this way.[00:02:24]
But I'm blessed.oh~~[00:02:28]
Blessed~~oh~~[00:02:42]
Now a paper forest grows up in the supermarket aisles,[00:02:55]
The baby born with teeth looks at its mother and it smiles,[00:02:58]
And we all fall down[00:03:02]
Like wind blows through the paper forest.[00:03:04]
And a paper forest grows up in the supermarket aisles,[00:03:08]
The baby born with teeth looks at its mother and smiles,[00:03:11]
And we all fall down[00:03:15]
As wind blows through the paper forest.s[00:03:15]
And a paper forest grows up in the supermarket aisle[00:03:21]
Alarm clock fingers turn they're counting seconds like they're miles[00:03:25]
And you say, "wake up now, 'cause I can see no paper forest."[00:03:28]
