Luyện nghe bài hát Ballad in Plain D

I loved a girl, her skin it was bronze
the innocence of a lamb, she was gentle like a fawn
I courted her but now she is gone
as the season she's taken

In a young summer's youth, I her away
From her mother and sister, close did they stay
Each one of suffering from the failures of their day
With of guilt they tried hard to guide us

Of the two sisters, I loved the
With instincts, she was the creative one
The scrapegoat, she was easily undone
By the of others around her

For her parasite sister, I had no
Bound by her boredom, her to protect
Countless of the other she'd reflect
As a for her scenes and her society

Myself, for what I did, I cannot be
The changes I was going through can't be used
For the lies that I told her in not to lose
The could-be dream-lover of my

With unseen consciousness, I in my grip
A mantelpiece, though its heart being chipped
Noticing not that I'd already
To the sin of love's false

silhouetted anger to manufactured peace
Answers of emptiness, voice
'Till the tombstones of read me no questions but, "Please
wrong and what's exactly the matter?"

And so it did happen like it could have foreseen
The timeless explosion of dream
At the peak of the night, the and the queen
Tumbled all down into

"The tragic figure!" her sister did
"Leave her alone, god you, get out!"
And I in my armor, turning
And her in the ruins of her pettiness

Beneath a bare light the plaster did pound
Her and I in a screaming battleground
And she in between, the victim of
Soon as a child to the shadows

All is gone, all is gone, admit it, flight
I gagged in contradiction, tears my sight
My it was mangled, I ran into the night
all of love's ashes behind me

The wind knocks my window, the it is wet
The words to say I'm sorry, I haven't yet
I think of her often and hope she's met
Will be fully aware of how she is

Ah, my friends from the prison, they ask me
"How good, how good it feel to be free?"
And I them most mysteriously
"Are birds free the chains of the skyway?"
