Swan Upon Leda专辑

  • 作词 : A. Hozier-Byrne
    作曲 : A. Hozier-Byrne
    Her husband waits outside
    A cryin' child pushes a child into the night
    She was told he would come this time
    Without leavin' so much as a feather behind
    To enact at last the perfect plan
    One more sweet boy to be butchered by hand

    But the gateway to the world
    Was still outside of reach for them
    Would never belong to angels
    Had never belonged to men
    The swan upon Leda
    Empire upon Jerusalem

    A grandmother smugglin' eggs
    Past where the god child-soldier
    Setanta stood dead
    Our graceful turner of heads
    Weaves through the checkpoints like a needle and thread
    Someone's frightened boy waves her on
    She offers a mother's smile and soon she's gone

    The gateway to the world
    Is gone in a tremblin' hand
    When nature unmakes the boundary
    The pillar of myth still stands
    The swan upon Leda
    Occupier upon ancient land

    But the gateway to the world
    Is still outside the reach of hands
    Would never belong to angels
    Had never belonged to men
