A Spindle, A Darkness, A Fever, And A Necklace - Bright Eyes (明亮的眼睛)

You turn on a spindle

You're so much looser now but you're not explaining

How you gained such new repose

I touch the clasp of your locket with its picture held

Some secret you wouldn't tell but let it choke your neck

So we imagine a darkness where all shapes divide

Solids changing into light with a burst of heat so bright

Well fine don't you do what I want you to

Yeah don't degrade yourself the way that I do

Cause you don't depend upon all the sh*t that

I use to make my moods improve

Near a sea of pianos there were waves of chords

That crashed against the shore in one huge and useless roar

And there were girls bringing water

Like a dream they came to cure the fever of my brain

And soothe my burning throat

And they made me a necklace hanging beads of sweat on a string of my regrets

And placed it round my neck

And they were singing don't you do what you've wanted to

Yeah don't destroy yourself like those cowards do

Maybe the sun keeps coming up cause it's gotten used to you

And your constant need for proof
