You All Loved Him Once (曾经你们都爱他) - Conor Oberst (康纳·奥博斯特)[00:00:00]
Written by:Conor Oberst[00:00:00]
You all loved him once[00:00:12]
And not without cause[00:00:16]
He fed you through the winter[00:00:19]
He led you through the fog[00:00:22]
You hid behind his body to be sheltered from the mob[00:00:25]
You all loved him once[00:00:32]
And not without cause[00:00:36]
You all loved him once[00:00:40]
When his glory was unmatched[00:00:43]
Your signal when to celebrate was the bugle of his laugh[00:00:47]
Oh when it came time to stand with him[00:00:53]
You scattered with the rats[00:00:56]
You all loved him once[00:01:01]
That time has passed[00:01:05]
You all loved him once[00:01:20]
When the future was opaque[00:01:23]
His reassuring visions were the pillars of your faith[00:01:27]
Through a thousand false horizons[00:01:33]
He would always fly it straight[00:01:36]
You all loved him once[00:01:41]
That turned to hate[00:01:45]
You all loved him once[00:01:49]
An uncommon love at that[00:01:52]
What you saw as a pedestal[00:01:56]
Was his elevated path[00:01:59]
So to satisfy the Philistines[00:02:02]
You stabbed him in the back[00:02:05]
You all loved him once[00:02:10]
Imagine that[00:02:14]
You all loved him once[00:02:30]
Yes you ate out of his hand[00:02:32]
He mirrored your confusion[00:02:36]
So that you might understand[00:02:39]
Then your soul was an experiment[00:02:42]
So he drew a diagram[00:02:45]
You all loved him once[00:02:50]
It ended bad[00:02:54]
You all loved him once[00:02:58]
And not without cause[00:03:02]
He helped carry your baggage[00:03:05]
When your strength was nearly gone[00:03:08]
And the more and more was put on him[00:03:11]
He tried his best to take it on[00:03:14]
You all loved him once[00:03:19]
Not without cause[00:03:23]
You all loved him once[00:03:25]
Now he is gone[00:03:29]
