I Am a Snail, and You Are a Pace I Cannot Match (我是一只蜗牛,无法跟上你的步伐) - Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate)[00:00:00]
He long days piled into weeks before you'd speak,[00:00:01]
As the storm crawled to meet the shoreline.[00:00:10]
And it began to rain at once![00:00:16]
I tried I tried I tried I tried[00:00:20]
To keep the awful things at bay from you[00:00:28]
But it was on the air and useless[00:00:34]
I might as well have tried to prove the words[00:00:37]
I fought to purchase would comfort you[00:00:46]
"there was nothing more that we could do."[00:00:52]
Or that I still loved you[00:01:04]
When nothing could be further from the truth[00:01:10]
Will your hand fall out of mine?[00:01:19]
Your shame lives on its own,[00:01:49]
Trying to reach the depths down where it belongs[00:01:54]
Will it find rest in your bones?[00:02:02]
Aching and pulling muscles to act out against you![00:02:06]
So stay your pity now[00:02:13]
If it reaches the heart, we all pull out[00:02:21]
Let the beat slow down[00:02:29]
There's nothing that we can do for you now[00:02:33]
Are you sorry or are you just scared?[00:02:40]
There will be no false comfort here[00:02:46]
Oh, I ought to tell you the truth![00:02:51]
I did not come to plea for you[00:02:58]
Where was your heart when your words[00:03:03]
Led the truth anywhere else from you?[00:03:07]
You're not sorry, you are just scared[00:03:16]
I have not come to calm your fears[00:03:22]
I am sorry I hid what you are[00:04:16]
But everyone else but me already knew![00:04:23]
Already knew![00:04:30]
And would not come to plea for you[00:04:34]
Where was your heart when they never appeared?[00:04:39]
Anyone else would care[00:04:47]
But you would not shoulder the weight you should bear[00:04:51]
I will not shed a single tear[00:04:58]
