Bible Belt

'Lo and behold your mother is drinking again
看啊，你的母亲又在喝酒

这也许是有记录以来最冷的冬天
This might be the coldest winter since records began
你独自一人，像寒冬那样坚定冷静

带着孩子们穿过畜栏
You were alone and steady with wintry calm
在早上你行军一样把妹妹带去学校

因为，看啊你父亲也喝了不少
Leading the children softly across the fold
你独自一人，像寒冬那样坚定冷静

在你年少的火焰里，有什么熄灭了
In the morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school
但你发誓水桶并不沉重
'Cause lo and behold your father has drunk quite a few
你说亲爱的，命该如此你得接受

没有引向伯利恒的光弧
You were alone and steady with wintry calm
所以屋外转暗时，你自己点起了火

当冰盖融化时
Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dark
圣经带里恶魔横行

别在床上吓成一团
But you swear blind there is no weight in the water pail
我会在5：45等着你

可以来铁道边找我
you And say 'my love, you take the cards that you're dealt'
别一副认真的样子

因为比这更糟糕的事，我们说上话之前就经历过
There's no guiding light arcing a line to Bethlehem
所以诀窍就是，别再害怕

啊 诀窍就是，别再害怕
And when it's dark outside, you light the fire yourself

Darling when the ice caps melt
When the devils in the bible belt
Don't you cower in your bed

I'll be at the five-four-five

You can meet me at the railway line
Don't look so staid

'Cause we've been through worse than this before we could talk

And the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore

Oh, the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore
