Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds "Anthrocene" Слова пісні

Anthrocene

[Verse 1]All the fine winds goneAnd this sweet world is so much olderAnimals pull the night around their shouldersFlowers fall to their naked kneesHere I come now, here I comeI hear you been out there looking for something to loveThe dark force that shifts at the edge of the treeIt's alright, it's alrightWhen you turn so long and lovely, it's hard to believeThat we're falling now in the name of the Anthrocene

[Verse 2]All the things we love, we love, we love, we loseIt's our bodies that fall when they try to riseAnd I hear you been looking out for something to loveSit down beside me and I'll name it for youBehold, beholdThe heaven bound seaThe wind cast its shadow and moves for the treeBehold the animals and the birds and the sky entireI hear you been out there looking for something to set on fireThe head bow children fall to their kneesHumbled in the age of the Anthrocene

[Verse 3]Here they come now, here they comeAre pulling you awayThere are powers at play more forceful than weCome over here and sit down and say a short prayerA prayer to the air, the air that we breatheAnd the astonishing rise of the Anthrocene

[Outro]Come on now, come on nowHold your breath while you're safeIt's a long way back and I'm begging you pleaseTo come home now, come home nowWell, I heard you been out looking for something to loveClose your eyes, little worldAnd brace yourself
