Sustain (Album Version) - The Waterboys (水孩子)[00:00:00]
Blues are falling like showers of rain[00:00:01]
But I don't feel like crying[00:00:05]
Death is abroad this day[00:00:10]
But I don't feel like dying[00:00:14]
I learned how to sustain myself[00:00:17]
How to sustain myself in storms[00:00:23]
Her tongue was like a scythe[00:00:36]
And all her bones were haunted[00:00:40]
A scapegoat for her life[00:00:44]
Was all she ever wanted[00:00:48]
I learned how to sustain myself in storms[00:00:51]
Sir Bedivere slept in the field[00:01:00]
His armour strewn around him[00:01:04]
Curled foetus-like beneath his shield [00:01:08]
Still weeping when we found him[00:01:11]
I teetered on the edge of doom[00:01:16]
Degenerate and broken[00:01:20]
She sucked the poison from my wounds[00:01:23]
And spoke the great unspoken[00:01:27]
I learned how to sustain myself in storms[00:01:31]
His monstrous ego whipped and driven[00:02:03]
Raged beneath his clothing[00:02:07]
The compliment he paid was given[00:02:12]
Not with grace but loathing[00:02:15]
Deliverance is at the gate[00:02:20]
With arms and gold in store[00:02:24]
She apologises for being late[00:02:28]
But I don't need her anymore[00:02:31]
I learned how to sustain myself[00:02:35]
How to sustain myself in storms[00:02:40]
Scoured and stripped of all pretence[00:02:50]
Shorn of all illusion[00:02:55]
I offer nothing in my defence[00:03:00]
You may draw your own conclusions[00:03:04]
I learned how to sustain myself in storms[00:03:08]
