歌手: The Wonder Years
时长: 04:05
We wiped out all the Buffalo[00:00:00]
Around the turn of the last century [00:00:04]
And so it's factories and sawgrass [00:00:09]
Wheat fields and asphalt laid in front of me [00:00:13]
The Midwest feels like a hollow place[00:00:17]
That we filled with love and industry [00:00:22]
And we're staring at the frozen ground in Goodwill suits [00:00:27]
Silent as the pastor reads the eulogy [00:00:32]
Well I wanted to see just a little bit of everything [00:00:36]
Let me be [00:00:47]
Two blackbirds on a highway sign[00:00:51]
Are laughing at me at four in the morning [00:00:55]
They played the war drum out of time[00:01:00]
So I'm not sure where I've been marching [00:01:05]
I wanna be strong but it's not easy anymore [00:01:09]
I'm hoping I'm wrong [00:01:18]
It's sixteen hours straight to home[00:01:26]
From the heart of North Missouri [00:01:30]
And so I searched through my great-grandpop's memoirs[00:01:36]
For the devil in my bloodstream [00:01:40]
Depression grabbed his throat[00:01:44]
And choked the life out of him slowly [00:01:48]
I've got the same blood coursing through my veins[00:01:53]
And it'll come for me eventually [00:01:57]
I bet I'd be a f*cking coward [00:02:01]
I bet I'd never have the guts for war [00:02:05]
'Cause I can't spend another month away from here [00:02:11]
These frantic rest stop phone calls[00:02:15]
Don't get answered anymore [00:02:18]
But I I wanted to know if I could please come home [00:02:20]
So let me know [00:02:28]
Two blackbirds on a highway sign[00:02:33]
Are laughing at me at four in the morning [00:02:37]
They played the war drum out of time[00:02:41]
So I'm not sure where I've been marching [00:02:45]
I wanna be strong but it's not easy anymore [00:02:49]
I'm hoping I'm wrong [00:02:57]
I'm hoping I'm wrong [00:03:06]
I know how it feels to be[00:03:08]
At war with a world[00:03:11]
That never loved me [00:03:15]
Two blackbirds on a highway sign[00:03:22]
Are laughing at me at four in the morning[00:03:26]
They played the war drum out of time[00:03:30]
So I'm not sure where I've been marching [00:03:35]
I wanna be strong [00:03:39]
I wanna be strong but it's not easy anymore [00:03:47]
