Sprawl I (Flatland) - Arcade Fire (拱廊之火)

Written by：Régine Chassagne/Richard Reed Parry/Win Butler/Tim Kingsbury/Will Butler/Jeremy Gara/Sarah Neufeld

Took a drive into the sprawl

To find the house

Where we used to stay in

Couldn't read the number in the dark

You said let's save it for another day

Took a drive into the sprawl

To find the places we used to play

It was the loneliest day of my life

You're talking at me

But I'm still far away

Let's take a drive

Through the sprawl

Through these towns

They built to change

Then you said

The emotions are dead

It's no wonder that

You feel so strange

Cops showing their lights

On the reflectors of our bikes

Said do you kids know

What time it is

Well sir it's the first time

I've felt like something is mine

Like I have something to give

The last defender of the sprawl

Said well where do you kids live

Well sir if you only knew

What the answer is worth

Been searching every corner

Of the earth
