Broadway Calls - Open Letter [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

We are the quick results of sweet mistakes
We are the ears attached to phone call traces
Studying and taking notes
And you steal it back and hope a poet’s words
Will help you understand the way things are
That’s life. We live and die
That’s right, we live and die
We just try to make it out to the open sea upon the perfect tide

[Chorus]
We’ve been dead for billions of years before we ever lived
A comfort, a distraction, a fuck is all I have to give
And I can’t say no, although I’m not trained to save you
And I can’t say no. I swear I’ll never turn my back
I swear I’ll never turn my back

We are the city bus on downtown streets
Two in the morning I will get you off your feet
Wait at the sidewalk
Watch you unlock your front door and stumble off to bed

[Chorus]

And I can’t say no, although I can’t promise to save you
And if you slip under, I swear I always loved you back

[Chorus]
