Constellation Blues - The Wallflowers (壁花合唱团)[00:00:00]

You can tell a few things about the soul of a town[00:00:12]

From the blood of the men gone in the ground[00:00:16]

Bankrupt and buried by war that is carried out[00:00:19]

By messengers now[00:00:23]

Was born here and married too young staring[00:00:32]

The nose of the barrel down[00:00:34]

Went milk to whiskey to the courthouse sitting[00:00:38]

With her stoned in her wedding gown[00:00:41]

My birthday's in two months and I'll be twenty one[00:00:51]

I am the second oldest to an only son[00:00:54]

Third generation to carry a gun[00:00:57]

I've got brown eyes like my mother does[00:01:01]

First I saw blood was in a soldier's hair[00:01:10]

Drying to his forehead in the dessert air[00:01:13]

I knew his name once but his face I don't dare[00:01:16]

Recall in the moments I go back there[00:01:20]

Off the record do you see my tears[00:01:30]

On my face and in my ears[00:01:33]

As the silos reappear[00:01:36]

And all of our journeys have led us right back here[00:01:39]

There's something in the water we've been passing around[00:01:54]

We've eaten the berries there is no doubt[00:01:58]

Like our father before us in his paper crown[00:02:01]

Kings of nowhere that was ever found[00:02:04]

The angels that used to be guarding our beds[00:02:14]

Have all wandered off and left us instead[00:02:17]

Too strung out and much too sick to defend[00:02:20]

Laying in the bathwater all lit up again[00:02:23]

It's not a rumor it's more than true[00:02:33]

There's nothing I wouldn't do[00:02:36]

Be somewhere with only you[00:02:39]

Share a little of these constellation blues[00:02:42]

When it comes to my death let it be slow[00:03:10]

May I be hunted in the hills I know[00:03:14]

Let God be certain I was ready to go[00:03:17]

But keep that secret from my children though[00:03:20]
