The Never-Ending Story 歌詞

When all should be done and gone He comes round again to see He can't keep himself away He touches her hand and it starts again His work is an ugly mess He prods and it cries in pain He kicks and it starts to scream He hurries away when she cannot see When all should be done and gone He comes round again to see He can't keep himself away He touches her hand and it Starts again Moving so slowly Droplets of kindness That poison and choke When this thing should have died long ago The entrails are soft and warm This time it must be the end One touch and it lives again He keeps it alive to be part of its pain And that's mercy And that's compassion And that's being good friends in a crisis What's one corpse between friends? Oh Oh-oh-oh... Leave it, boy Just leave it alone Stop scratching, or it'll never heal Just let it lie in peace Get out of the way Get out of the way The brakes cannot last for long He knows he must let it go He knows but he keeps a hold He touches her hand and it Starts again Ah! Ah! Ah! Moving so slowly He drops it so gently Urging its life To a peak to torment it again!
