[03:53.78][02:39.90][00:55.63][00:18.71][00:00.17]We need a myth
[00:03.86]We need an amethyst bridge
[00:08.91]We need a high hanging cliff
[00:13.47]Jump, fall and lift
[00:15.10]We can make it
[00:21.97]We need a path
[00:23.78]Through the mist
[00:26.68]Like in our beds
[00:27.99]We were just kids
[00:31.43]Like what was said by our parents
[01:59.23][00:46.21][00:37.53]A myth
[02:02.85][01:54.06][00:50.05][00:40.64]I guess What we're after is just this
[00:58.79]I feel my heart's like a fist
[01:03.21]Words spilling out
[01:04.62]From the blessed lips
[01:08.08]Of any prophet or goddess
[01:13.34]I need a myth
[01:17.22]Brought back to life by a kiss
[01:21.54]Scrape away grey cement
[01:26.16]Show me the world as it was again
[01:30.88]As it was in a myth
[01:35.84]A red ribbon to reconnect
[01:39.88]The lady's head to her neck
[01:43.98]And to forget that her throat
[01:47.69]Was ever slit
[02:07.45]Oh and I'm sick
[02:10.32]Of all these picture books that try
[02:18.29]To steal some old reflections for their light
[02:26.93]But desperate measures point to desperate times
[02:35.76]And that's why
[02:58.46]We're cut adrift
[03:02.23]And we need a mass uplift
[03:06.66]The world is trembling and weeping
[03:11.20]Just at the point of believing
[03:17.04]In a myth
[03:20.61]The sun that shines on my head
[03:25.05]The moon that lights me to bed
[03:29.52]Were two identical twins
[03:34.55]Inside of a myth
[03:38.66]I heard the voice of a friend
[03:43.18]On Lethe's banks
[03:44.77]Wading in
[03:46.76]And he said
[03:48.12]Before I forget
[03:56.92]As we lean in to kiss
[04:01.29]To get two nails
[04:03.28]Through the wrist
[04:06.11]To get covered in blood
[04:09.00]And to get covered in spit
[04:11.35]And to forgive.
[04:15.44]And if all we're taught is a trick
[04:19.72]Why would this feeling persist?
[04:24.27]And with the truth closing in
[04:27.39]I must insist
[04:30.09]We need a myth.
文本歌词
Okkervil River - We Need a Myth
We need a myth
We need an amethyst bridge
We need a high hanging cliff
Jump, fall and lift
We can make it
We need a path
Through the mist
Like in our beds
We were just kids
Like what was said by our parents
A myth
I guess What we're after is just this
I feel my heart's like a fist
Words spilling out
From the blessed lips
Of any prophet or goddess
I need a myth
Brought back to life by a kiss
Scrape away grey cement
Show me the world as it was again
As it was in a myth
A red ribbon to reconnect
The lady's head to her neck
And to forget that her throat
Was ever slit
Oh and I'm sick
Of all these picture books that try
To steal some old reflections for their light
But desperate measures point to desperate times
And that's why
We're cut adrift
And we need a mass uplift
The world is trembling and weeping
Just at the point of believing
In a myth
The sun that shines on my head
The moon that lights me to bed
Were two identical twins
Inside of a myth
I heard the voice of a friend
On Lethe's banks
Wading in
And he said
Before I forget
As we lean in to kiss
To get two nails
Through the wrist
To get covered in blood
And to get covered in spit
And to forgive.
And if all we're taught is a trick
Why would this feeling persist?
And with the truth closing in
I must insist
We need a myth.
