歌词
[Intro]
(Instrumental: Ambient sounds of a deserted wasteland, wind, storm)
[Spoken Word: Vault Dweller]
"Sometimes, in the silence of the Vault,
You hear the whispers of what once was.
The flicker of a Pip-Boy,
The rustle of old-world dreams.
Out here, love's a ghost,
Haunting these metal halls.
And just because you're accepted,
Doesn't mean you belong."
[Verse 1]
Why do you still cross my mind?
Prolly 'cause in the Vault, the past's not left behind.
You showed me that love's a fleeting flame,
Doesn’t matter how much I give, it’s all the same.
Caps in hand, I learned to lie,
In the darkness of the Vault, emotions run dry.
I would've never done those things that you did to me,
But that's the difference, you see.
You had me drop down to my knees and cry,
Why did I ever think I loved you? Why?
Guess I never did, only liked the thought of it,
In the wasteland's grip, our love didn't fit.
[Chorus]
Just 'cause you were accepted doesn't mean you belong,
In the Vault, we all sing a broken song.
Millions watch, but no one sees me long,
In the glow of the Rad, love's a fleeting song.
[Chorus]
Just 'cause you were accepted doesn't mean you belong,
In the Vault, we all sing a broken song.
Millions watch, but no one sees me long,
In the glow of the Rad, love's a fleeting song.
[Verse 2]
If I were a used Pip-boy, I'd break down in the dark,
Fizzle out, just a ghostly spark.
If you were to roam far, I'd be next to you,
In the wasteland, I'd be the rest of you.
Am I all that's left for you?
I promise I won’t let you down, it's true.
When I feel your heartbeat, I know that I’m home,
In the Vault, even shadows feel alone.
The day I stop holding you is the day I’m a ghost,
Lying in the back seat, rolling up a bone, lost in the most.
Drown in the smoke, now I'm dead in my zone,
In the wasteland’s arms, I’m never alone.
[Chorus]
Just 'cause you were accepted doesn't mean you belong,
In the Vault, we all sing a broken song.
Millions watch, but no one sees me long,
In the glow of the Rad, love's a fleeting song.
[Bridge]
Flames on my body, my shirts say, "Vault-Tec,"
My thoughts just sparking, my lungs work hard as heck.
Impressionistic oils, the glow of Nuka-Cola,
Make me feel royal in the wasteland's aura.
Know I got you if you loyal, but if not, I’m out of order,
Never catch me sipping soda, bitch, I’m rolling through the border.
Cold jar full of life, Rad-X shining like foil,
Doing everything you wish you could, wasteland life, I toil.
[Chorus]
Just 'cause you were accepted doesn't mean you belong,
In the Vault, we all sing a broken song.
Millions watch, but no one sees me long,
In the glow of the Rad, love's a fleeting song.
[Chorus]
Just 'cause you were accepted doesn’t mean you belong,
In the Vault, we all sing a broken song.
Millions watch, but no one sees me long,
In the glow of the Rad, love's a fleeting song.
[Chorus]
Just 'cause you were accepted doesn't mean you belong,
In the Vault, we all sing a broken song.
Millions watch, but no one sees me long,
In the glow of the Rad, love's a fleeting song.
[Chorus]
Just 'cause you were accepted doesn’t mean you belong,
In the Vault, we all sing a broken song.
Millions watch, but no one sees me long,
In the glow of the Rad, love's a fleeting song.
[Verse 3]
Walking through these metal tombs, whispers in the dark,
Pip-boy glow reveals the ghosts, in the halls we embark.
Caps in hand, old dreams I clutch,
Trading tales of love, like sand through a clasp.
Nuka-Cola blues in my veins, dreams gone dry,
Raider’s anthem plays on loop, memories make me sigh.
A man sought America, in the ash and dust,
Found only fragments of love, in the wasteland’s cruel thrust.
[Outro]
Let your guard down, you don't have to fight it,
In this Vault, love’s a song, let's rewrite it.
In this world of Rad and dust,
Even in the wasteland, hearts can trust.
