The Crane Dance - Ludovico Einaudi

I've gotten good at leaning on metaphors I've gotten good at living on someone else's page I cut my teeth on secondhand sentiments You can't trust a single thing I say I keep my closet free of skeletons 'Cause I'm much better at digging graves But I always dig up bones in your sympathy I can't trust a single thing you say Don't look too hard, 'cause you won't like the scars he left in me I've gotten good at making up metaphors I've gotten good at stretching the truth out of shape And all these words are sweet and meaningless You can't trust a single thing I say You can't trust a single thing I say You can't trust a single thing I say (I've gotten good at leaning on metaphors) You can't trust a single thing I say (I've gotten good at making up metaphors)

Red sky morning, lovers warning Oh I know that promise you wear, well it ain't for me Shallow river, shining within her Flood it all, drown the crops, but just please don't swallow me Settle down (settle, settle, settle) Hold your heart, be still, be still May the whole sky fall May it all come down Wasted all for the title Wasted all for the crown Keep your distance, make resistance Stay the course when you falter and don't you think of me Glowing ember, growing within her Burn it all, raze the field, but just please don't swallow me May the whole sky fall May it all come down Wasted all for the truth For the fool in her wedding gown Let her leave my sight Make her leave my mind Bring it down on my head If these sins are mine Call it down on my head For these sins are mine Settle down (settle, settle, settle) Hold your heart, be still, be still Let her go (settle, settle, settle) Hold your heart, be still, be still Lovely lady, no one's baby Keep your chains off the ground and don't you think of me

I tried my best To hold on to myself To control my own existence Not to act like someone else I've traveled through the spaces and the places in between Haven't found my faith But I got some reasons to live So I kept on dreaming Alright, alright, I'll tap on my screen Like a time machine That's the way memories proceed Between me and me I've walked through the mountains, rivers and seas To feel the sand and breeze To pick you up some flowers The sunlight in my sleeves Words came out as I breathe Always here with me Nothing more we need Natural ability I'm living in my dreams Never been so sweet 一直在這裡 哪也沒去 I used to beat around the bush Now I've learned to tell the truth Though it was obvious to you Second thoughts helped me this time But the answer's always inside It needs no diving Take a moment to pause May the darkest pathway lead you to the mountain top Where everything seems smaller than a dot Hope that i could say it everyday I feel better today Words came out as I breathe Always here with me Nothing more we need Natural ability I'm living in my dreams Never been so sweet 真實的自己 What I believe

I had a doubt I had a vision Something to worry about I don't do drugs I don't go out They tell me to smoke but I'm out They say I'm good They say I've got this Thought I'd be up in the clouds I'm in the booth I'll sing my tunes But how to make more people move? I talk like I know what I'm doing But who the fuck really know shit Everything's changing, everything's new My plans change like my mood I'm no longer 22 I know who I wanted to be But I need to set me free The world took more than it can hold More anxiety My mind, one day it might explode Society I, wanna care only the things I care Rose-tinted eyes Could you spare me with mercy and lies? Would you set me free? With your disguise I see the sunlight, only when I stay up at night Someone draw the line, so we can pick a side I told you I said they don't care If I die today They'll cry on my grave Then search for another prey Maybe, nobody's so different cause different is what people fake At last I seized the day I got tumor when I was 19, after my father died To be honest I ain't afraid of life, but I need some time To paint what's on my mind To be loved, to be great To be good at things that live in plain sight So I feel alive But, what's the point of it? It don't even sit Even if I make it to the top, where's the tip of it? What besides vanity that make you chase a dream? Define greed, I want it but I don't need it You call it succeed I figured it out All by myself I figured it out I figured it out I had a doubt I had a vision Something to worry about I don't do drugs I don't go out They tell me to smoke but I'm out They say I'm good They say I've got this Thought I'd be up in the clouds I'm in the booth I'll sing my tunes But how to make more people move? I I see the sunlight, only when I stay up at night Cause we're born to die So enjoy the flight I wanna drench in your ocean Wanna buy you some milk Wanna swim in your brown eyes And I Wanna blow out the candles Wanna bathe in your sweat Wanna whisper a goodnight

Tear it down Tear it down around my head I need you To bury this beneath my bed The crows in the garden are laughing at my expense Drowning out all the lies that I might have told instead My stone My shield, my steady hand Hold your light To the darkness in my head Put your ear to my heart or set your teeth against my throat Give me something pretty to wear beneath my blood-stained clothes My darling, the devil knows my name Whoa, oh Lay me down Pour the dirt into our bed Tell the crows They can have their pound of flesh The ghosts at the window echo all our quiet prayers When they come for us, they'll come with hammers and nails My darling, the devil knows my name My name My name Get on your knees and Dig up the garden Won't you throw down that spade and Dig up the garden, darling? Get your hands dirty and Rip up the garden Won't you cut down that apple tree for me?
