[00:00.000]Snow White in Appalachia - David Sylvian
[00:13.221]Half life
[00:18.011]She moves in a half life
[00:24.160]Imperfect
[00:43.429]From her place on the stairs
[00:49.128]Or sat in the backseat
[00:55.506]Sometimes you're only a passenger
[01:01.905]In the time of your life
[01:09.015]And there's snow on the mattress
[01:14.233]Blown in from the doorway
[01:20.232]It would take pack mules and provisions
[01:26.571]To get out alive
[01:39.381]There were concerts and car crashes
[01:45.030]There were kids she'd attended
[01:51.589]And discreet indiscretions
[01:57.657]For which she'd once made amends
[02:03.766]And there's ice on the windshield
[02:09.125]And the wipers are wasted
[02:14.894]And the metal is flying
[02:20.254]Between her and her friends
[02:52.064]She'd abandoned them there
[02:57.073]In the hills of Appalachia
[03:03.123]She threw off the sandbags
[03:09.662]To lighten the load
[03:17.371]As soon as the sun rose
[03:22.180]The keys were in the ignition
[03:28.870]Following the tyre tracks
[03:34.659]Of the truck sanding the road
[03:58.488]There had to be ***
[04:02.858]Running through the girl's body
[04:08.147]There had to be ***
[04:12.426]And they too had a name
[04:19.286]And the adrenalin rush
[04:23.516]Had left her exhausted
[04:29.905]When under the blue sky
[04:35.024]Nothing need be explained
[04:53.172]And there is no maker
[04:59.541]Just inexhaustible indifference
[05:09.869]And there's comfort in that
[05:15.097]So you feel unafraid
[05:31.685]And the radio falls silent
[05:37.044]But for short bursts of static
[05:43.112]And she sleeps in a house
[05:48.041]That once too had a name
