A husband waits outside
A crying child pushes a child into the night
She was told he would come this time
Without leaving so much as a feather behind
A husband waits outside
A crying child pushes a child into the night
She was told he would come this time
Without leaving so much as a feather behind
To enact, at last, the perfect plan
One more sweet boy to be butchered by man
[Chorus]
But the gateway to the world
Was still outside the reach of him
Would never belong to angels
Had never belonged to man
The swan upon Leda
Empire upon Jerusalem
[Verse 2]
A grandmother smuggling meds
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
[Chorus]
The gateway to the world
The gun in a trembling hand
Where nature unmakes the boundary
The pillar of myth still stands
The swan upon Leda
Occupier upon ancient land
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Outro]
The gateway to the world
Was still outside the reach of him
Would never belong to angels
Had never belonged to men
丈夫在外面等
一个哭泣的孩子将孩子推到夜晚
她被告知他这次会来
不留下羽毛的东西
最后制定完美的计划
另一个可爱的男孩被人屠杀
[合唱]
但是通往世界的门户
仍然不在他的范围之外
永远不会属于天使
从来没有属于人
天鹅在莱达
耶路撒冷的帝国
[第2节]
祖母走私药物
过去的儿童士兵塞塔塔(Setanta)死了
我们优雅的头脑
像针和线一样通过检查站编织
有人受惊的男孩挥舞着她
她提供母亲的微笑,很快,她走了
[合唱]
通往世界的门户
枪支颤抖的手
大自然揭开边界的地方
神话的支柱仍然存在
天鹅在莱达
占领者在古老的土地上
[器乐桥]
[outro]
通往世界的门户
仍然不在他的范围之外
永远不会属于天使
从不属于男人
