Crack/Daniels - Pitfalls Of Perfectionism [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(Verse 1)
Sitting ducks in a row, seen 'em laughing at the geese
Who waddle out in the road and block traffic in the streets
That passion isn't deep for the masses of the sheep
While the hourglass drips like molasses in the heat
Stay fastened to your seat and be careful for the wolves
When they smile you can see the moon flashing off their teeth
The questions that I ask are often answered in my sleep
And if my pattern wasn't backwards I'd have half of them to keep
See, cash is on the trees
And cash is on the leaves
But deep in the fertile soil
Someone planted the seed
And granted me free will
Handed me cheap thrills
Cos money ain't the root of evil, it's actually greed
Go ask adam and eve if you ain't eager to buy it
It's easy to understand, but the secret is keeping quiet
The key to higher learning is locking ego and bias
I'd love to catch you alone and watch you meagerly try it

(Chorus)
My mistakes are good enough for me just to cover my face
I'm finally becoming everything that I hate
Try to clear a path, there's someone in my place
And that's good enough for me just to cover my face
Time waits
(Take a step in the kitchen and see me stirrin' the batch)
Maybe find me in a better mind state
(stitch my heart on the fabric like it's perfect to match)
Everything is fine, mothafucka life's great
(the duffel bag that I'm carrying full of personal crap)
Try to clear a path, there's someone in my place
(told the doctor I'm happy it only hurts when I laugh)
And that's good enough for me just to cover my face

(Verse 2)
Take 5 for your break time
I love all music, except I hate mine
Cos whenever I think I've finally made wine
I cut my hands on the thorns of the grapevine
Float by on the feet of fleeting emotion
Divided by duality, I think I need a quotient
Do I chase my dreams or settle for being hopeless?
Discussion's like the door, I'll always leave it open...
But...
I went from telemarketing, selling cars and then washing 'em
Servin dinners to scrubbin dishes in kitchens- I polished 'em
Constantly switching jobs, believe me, I've had a lot them
Get a check and they garnish my wages when I deposit 'em
The plot is either imploding, or blowing up like M80's
And showing just what she missed to the _____ who wouldn't date me
I know it's nuts and it's crazy, but growin up doesn't phase me
I'm old enough to be dumb but not young enough to be babied
I say that I have a dream, but I'm only tired at dawn
Compensating for being lonely by writing a song
'Cos I'm climbing a mountain, and it's a hike that I'm on
Sometimes life isn't right, sometimes what's right isn't wrong
So in the light of the second, I'm kindly indebted to my entire environment
Even after the time I invested in lighting it all on fire
'Cos my iris gets wider when every once in a while
I see something that I admire
In the fighter, the lover, the nights that I wonder
Why I'm so sunburned from the light that I'm under
Why I like to be treated like a mothafuckin joke
Why my room isn't heated but it's always up in smoke
This constant quest for quenched thirst and endless wisdom
Has essentially ended at existentialism
So follow me on my journey to get more
While I explore every pitfall of perfectionism

(Chorus)
