[00:01.00] 作曲 : Dave Malloy
[00:03.23]PIERRE
[00:23.48]Is this how I die?
[00:29.85]Ridiculed and laughed at
[00:33.85]Wearing clown shoes
[00:41.01]Is this how I die?
[00:46.36]Furious and reckless
[00:49.94]Sick with booze
[00:57.10]How did I live?
[01:01.02]I taste every wasted minute
[01:05.09]Every time I turned away
[01:13.63]From the things that might have healed me
[01:17.08]How long have I been sleeping?
[01:23.95]Is this how I die?
[01:28.86]Frightened like a child
[01:31.32]Lazy and numb
[01:37.54]Is this how I die?
[01:41.59]Pretending and preposterous
[01:46.47]And dumb
[01:50.49]How did I live?
[01:54.25]Was I kind enough and good enough?
[01:57.34]Did I love enough?
[02:05.41]Did I ever look up
[02:06.38]And see the moon
[02:08.39]And the stars
[02:10.14]And the sky?
[02:11.76]Oh why have I been sleeping?
[02:18.18]They say we are asleep
[02:21.06]Until we fall in love
[02:24.01]We are children of dust and ashes
[02:30.17]But when we fall in love we wake up
[02:34.20]And we are a God
[02:37.44]And angels weep
[02:43.89]But if I die here tonight
[02:48.33]I die in my sleep
[02:58.05]All of my life I spent searching the words
[02:59.98]Of poets and saints and prophets and kings
[03:02.43]And now at the end all I know that I鈥檝e learned
[03:04.55]Is that all that I know is I don鈥檛 know a thing
[03:06.80]So easy to close off
[03:09.02]Place the blame outside
[03:11.60]Hiding in my room at night
[03:13.82]So terrified
[03:16.31]All the things I could have been
[03:18.21]But I never had the nerve
[03:21.03]Life and love
[03:22.97]I don鈥檛 deserve
[03:25.74]So all right, all right
[03:28.11]I e had my time
[03:30.62]Close my eyes
[03:32.68]Let the death bells chime
[03:35.30]Bury me in burgundy
[03:37.70]I just don't care
[03:40.26]Nothing left
[03:42.17]I looked everywhere
[03:44.80]Is this how I die?
[03:47.60]Was there ever any other way my life could be?
[03:54.60]Is this how I die?
[03:57.66]Such a storm of feelings inside of me?
[04:04.53]But then why am I screaming?
[04:07.30]Why am I shaking?
[04:10.61]Oh God, was there something that I missed?
[04:18.29]Did I squander my divinity?
[04:23.41]Was happiness within me the whole time?
[04:31.30]They say we are asleep
[04:34.44]Until we fall in love
[04:38.09]We are children of dust and ashes
[04:44.52]But when we fall in love we wake up
[04:48.57]And we are a God
[04:51.34]And angels weep
[04:57.74]But if I die here tonight
[05:02.10]I die in my sleep
[05:11.01]They say we are asleep
[05:13.26]Until we fall in love
[05:23.63]And I so ready
[05:27.13]To wake up now
[05:30.86]I want to wake up
[05:33.89]Don't let me die while I like this
[05:38.59]I want to wake up
[05:41.47]God don't let me die while I鈥檓 like this
[05:46.88]Please let me wake up now
[05:49.20]God don't let me die while I like this
[05:54.92]I ready
[05:58.66]I ready
[06:07.69]To wake up
