Текст Will Butler — Bethlehem

[Verse 1]
Oh the past is in a graveyard
Makin’ stew out of the bones
And a neighbor’s gonna call the cops again
Although it’s better left alone
In the sky, the birds are circlin’
If I ask them to, will they
Lead me to my grave?

How does it feel
To know the torch is in your hand?
The smell of your skin
Oh, it could make you sick
Make you understand
That the only word is fire
And the only song is the
Singing of the flame

[Pre-Chorus]
And if there’s some revelation
It isn’t in my hand
Oh, if there’s some celebration
I haven’t heard the plan

[Chorus]
Oh, la la la la la la la la
Let me lose my head
Let me cover my eyes in the ashes and blood
Let me lie down and join the dead
‘Cause the best have no position
And the worst are full of
Passion and belief

[Verse 2]
Under my head
You know the dream is lyin’ dead
Under my heart
Oh where the breath begins, it begins again
If you ask for me tomorrow
I’ll be in the sky, I’ll be
Blowin’ in the wind

[Pre-Chorus]
And if there’s some revelation
It isn’t in my hand
Oh, if there’s some celebration
I haven’t heard the plan

[Chorus]
Oh, la la la la la la la la
Let me lose my head
Let me close my eyes in the ashes of love
And in the light I’ll join the dead
‘Cause the best have no position
And the worst are full of
Passion and belief

[Bridge]
(I met you at the cemetery’s edge)
(But it wasn’t like you said)
(The sun was down, the birds were gone)
(I sat and waited with you for the dawn)

Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
Oh, la la la la la la la la
Let me lose my head
Let me close my eyes in the ashes of love
And in the light I’ll join the dead
‘Cause the best have no position
And the worst are full of
Passion and belief
