Luyện nghe bài hát Plague of Ghosts

(I) old

I found a home in the darkness, a home in the darkness, found a home in the darkness,
Empty stomach empty head a body fills a bed,
And the thunder rolls by, and the rains come, and the days gone and I where I am.

Found a place in the darkness, a home in the darkness, in the darkness, home, in the darkness.

A crowded room of by and in the shadows strangers cry, and the ghosts try to hide,
the rains come, when the storms form, when I wonder who I am in the darkness,
Home.

(ii) deep.

deep in the darkness, digging it deep down deep down deep down digging it
Deep in the darkness, it deep, down deep, down, deep down digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down, down, down, down, it
in the darkness, digging it down, deep down, deep, down deep digging it

We watched an insect stray to the of it's world, a lily pad stretched over a green mirror
In which the ghost carp swirl clouds before a storm.
This is the of the rains,
is incoming.

And it came their was no cover, no place to hide,
Vision blurred, hard to breathe, trying hard to onto something that's real.
Nothing left, nowhere to go, no open road it's washed by swollen streams,
Carried off with all my broken dreams.

Digging deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down deep deep, deep, digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it down, down, down, down digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep, digging it it, digging it,
in the darkness, digging it deep down, deep down, deep down, digging it.

A tethered goat bleats from the corner of the graveyard where the lizards hang motionless as the angels of stone above them, broken wings throwing long shadows into the grass where the scorpions hide.
The tigers are out of jungle.

In the end I was tired of being asked if I could say I was happy now,
As if you me to convince you that everything's ok.
Would you me back?

deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down deep, down deep, deep digging it
Deep in the darkness, it deep, down, down, down, down, down, digging it,
Deep in the darkness, it deep, deep down, deep, deep, digging it,
Deep in the darkness, down, down, down, down, down, down it.

Are you happy now? you asking, asking am I happy now?
Why can't you tell me I'm happy now? are you happy now?
Happy now? happy

2. chocolate

The bloated corpses of unsolved murders and old revolutions, pirouette and dance the swirls and eddies in their final procession down the muddy river to the delta where they're thrown up by the surf onto sterile beaches or are trapped in the roots of mangrove cathedrals of the islands that gather in the bay.

These are the first arrivals on this new horizon that will be coveted by strangers who will deposit themselves on these shores to build towers to the heavens. the storm will come and the will fall and remove their dreams and hopes once again to the waters that surround them. and while they pray the frogs will chant in the darkness

A full of chocolate frogs, a body full of rush, a pocketful of shrapnel and a skinfull of bush,
An eyefull of the future and a belly full of the past, how beautiful the present when you know it last.

A tumblerful of voddie, two fingers in a glass, a handful of promises, a full of remorse,
of your manners when you're brought down to your knees,
A heid of chocolate frogs is all you gave to me,
That's all you gave to me, that's all you to me,

A spoonful of miracles a full of dust a lung full of virginia the needs we have we must,
A pill to put your right a nose out for a deal for a heid full of chocolate frogs what can you give to me?
What did you to me?
did you give to me?
What did you to me?

3- at stars.

You cracked up too soon before the hit home and at the end of the joke did you notice that no-one was laughing with you.
You out on your own,
Waving at trains, waving at cars, from bars, waving from aeroplanes,
Might as well be at stars,

You called out her name as the darkness hit home, raised up your zippo and opened the till the crowd melts away, at the end of the day, you ran out of light,
Praying for rain, for signs, praying for time, praying for endless night, might as well be wishing on stars

4. raingods

Empty churches, empty pews, in the subway nothing moves and the static on the radio is out the sound of raingod's dancing,
Empty playgrounds, empty bars, I can't remember how it was before the flood all I had to do was recognise the love that's trapped inside.

I gave it all, I took it back and in the end there's nothing left except a shell surrounding emptiness and loneliness, a of pain,
I see my shining.

Raingods with zippo's, a tinman a broken heart,
Raingods with zippo's, he knows the has gone that soon he'll fall apart,

So I lay me down to lie and with the rain my lullaby I drift away to dreamless sleep, leave behind a life that died, a victim of a of ghosts
I was wrapped up in my guilt buried deep my memories, a shelter of self-pity that I know the rain will wash away, I sense the storm arriving.

Raingods zippo's, a tin man rusts away and slowly falls apart,
Raingods with zippo's and all he leaves a bleeding broken heart.

(part ii) the wake -up (make it happen)

In the end I beginnings, not a vision, a wake up call,
Raised the dead by a beating heart and at last I can see it all
And my eyes opened to the darkness, in my hand a burning flame,
A spark of life to the fuse and blow these clouds away,
I can make it happen, if I to,
it happen, if I try,
Forgive, forget, forever means as much as it does today,
Make it happen, we can it happen, we can make it happen.

When I up, will you be there? it can never be the same.
If we can take our lives slowly, step by step, we can be in the rain,
We can it happen, we can make it happen, make it happen,
Forgive, forget, means today, make it happen, we can make it happen,
We can make it happen, forgive, forget, forever today,
it happen.
