Eggshells (蛋壳) - Shawn Mullins[00:00:00]
She slees with the windows open[00:00:18]
Yet she's still locked safe inside[00:00:21]
And to block out the sounds of the city's commotion[00:00:26]
She turns her fan up on high[00:00:29]
Yea she lives just far enough away from home[00:00:34]
To see the whole scene[00:00:38]
And down the street the kids throw sticks and stones[00:00:42]
And end up on the the tv screen[00:00:46]
Yea they throw their sticks and stones[00:00:50]
And end up on the tv screen[00:00:54]
And she used to walk on these gracefully[00:00:58]
But now they crunch beneath her feet[00:01:03]
I guess she must be changin'[00:01:07]
There's just no way to keep it neat[00:01:11]
And her father still barks like a soldier[00:01:24]
Returning from victory[00:01:28]
But now eh's much older[00:01:32]
And that bark isn't as scary as it used to be[00:01:36]
Yea she watches his self torture[00:01:40]
No one left to abuse but himself[00:01:44]
But still her memory scorches her[00:01:48]
And she struggles to love herself[00:01:52]
Her memory scorches her[00:01:57]
And she struggles to love herself[00:02:00]
And she used to walk on these gracefully[00:02:05]
But now they crunch beneath her feet[00:02:10]
And i guess she must be changin'[00:02:13]
She never was to good at stayin' in her seat[00:02:18]
And this town grows hungry and restless[00:02:52]
Hungry for what i ain't sure[00:02:56]
But they're sweepin' the streets of the trash and the homeless[00:03:00]
And raisin' the rent[00:03:05]
And breakin' the poor[00:03:06]
But they're sweepin' the streets of the trash and the homeless[00:03:08]
And raisin' the rent[00:03:12]
And breakin' the poor[00:03:13]
And i used to walk on these gracefully[00:03:17]
But now they crunch beneath my feet[00:03:21]
And i guess i must be changin'[00:03:25]
There's just no way to keep it neat[00:03:29]
I used to walk on these gracefully[00:03:33]
I guess i must be changin'[00:03:42]
