作词 : Ben Goldwasser/Andrew VanWyngarden/Brian Joseph Burton 作曲 : Ben Goldwasser/Brian Joseph Burton I put the groceries down on the front lawn And think maybe the children just want recognition I wrote the fairytale on a midnight drive Wanting to know if I'm more than alive I torched the fields again And killed an honest man Now I understand Mother Nature Watch me running head-first into the thorns It's like the lights are off but somebody's home
Unwrap that tourniquet 'round the sun Turn those subtle reds into neon You'll see the difference when it's done But I understand your hesitation
Come take a walk with me down billionaire's row Trying to keep our balance over zero We'll write the fairytale for the rest of our lives Throwing the trash away one more time
Holding on to love like a stone Melting down today for tomorrow's Covenant of the heart You know it's turbulent from the start And I understand it's not your nature
But you need a friend To take you home You've got to begin again
To open castle gates and let me go inside And taste the bitter tea that won't let you hide Then we can take away as much as we can steal Break all the precious bones before the guards appear Before the fantasy is cast into the fire And strike the temple bell to resonate the—
Covenant of the heart You know what comes right after the dark But I understand your hesitation
