Three Empty Words - Harakiri for the sky.mp3

[00:00.000] 作词 : Michael Kogler
[00:00.620] 作曲 : Matthias Sollak
[00:01.241]There was a poem called "Loss" once carved into stones
[00:08.033]It had three words, but the poet scratched them out
[00:14.433]It was three empty words that once dug his grave
[00:20.911]It was three empty words that once bled him dry
[01:18.224]I know some of us get lost in the fire
[01:21.672]But some of us are built from it
[01:25.173]Get to learn to embrace the storms
[01:27.889]Cause without rain nothing grows
[01:31.834]Not all storms come to disrupt your life
[01:34.472]Some just approach to clear your path
[01:37.738]No, I never wished you rain my dear
[01:40.637]I always wished you the beauty of storms
[01:51.164]Horizon
[01:53.960]Tempest
[02:10.521]Let's drink on our mistakes
[02:13.656]Let's drink on these old memories
[02:16.817]Let's get lost in the storms
[02:19.533]Let's get lost in our fire
[02:23.217]Let's drink
[02:26.508]Forget
[02:29.408]Let's drink
[02:32.908]Forget
[02:36.278]You know some men can't be negotiated or reasoned with
[02:42.129]Cause some of 'em just want to watch the world burn
[02:49.026]That's why I'll never rise from the ashes, my dear
[02:55.452]Cause I am them, I'm the whole ****ing fire
[03:02.035]I know we must have our hearts broken sometimes
[03:08.304]Cause having them broken also means
[03:12.379]We tried for something
[03:14.887]I know a ship's safe in a harbour
[03:17.760]But that's not what it's built for
[03:21.287]We must get broken sometimes
[03:23.769]Cause that is how the light gets in
[03:30.639]That is how the light gets in
[03:56.735]Let's drink on our mistakes
[04:03.292]Let's drink on these old memories
[04:09.718]Let's get lost in the storms
[04:16.196]Let's get lost in our fire
[04:19.018]And I'll keep these songs in mind
[04:21.969]For funerals get to come
[04:25.757]As my memories will fade
[04:28.213]But wounds will still remain
[04:32.236]And I wish I also knew which songs
[04:34.717]Remind other people of me
[04:37.904]You too used to be about music
[04:41.013]And the songs that carried us
[04:43.729]Through sleepless nights
[05:24.219]You may think I write about my own misery
[05:30.593]But I'm really writing about yours
[05:36.549]You are living in a world of fire and brimstone
[05:42.949]Just not to die from cold inside
[06:40.680]Sometimes we think we are keeping a secret
[06:47.210]But sometimes that secret eventually keeps us
[06:53.610]That's why we give flowers mostly to the dead
[07:00.298]Cause regret is way stronger than our gratitude
[07:32.428]There is a poem called "Distress" carved into my chest
[07:38.854]It too had three words, but the poet scratched them out
[07:45.280]It was three empty words that dug my grave
[07:51.785]It's three empty words that bled me dry
[08:10.933]And I'll keep these songs in mind
[08:14.485]For funerals yet to come
[08:17.489]As my memories will fade
[08:20.128]But wounds will still remain
[08:23.968]And I wish I also knew which songs
[08:26.711]Remind other people of me
[08:29.819]You too used to be about music
[08:32.797]And the songs that carried us
[08:35.540]Through sleepless nights
