Frightened Rabbit - The Oil Slick [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I went looking for a song for you
Something soft and patient to reflect it's muse
I took a walk with all my brightest thoughts
But the weather soon turned and they all ran off
Took to the ocean in a boat this time
Only an idiot would swim through the shit i write
How can i talk of life and warmth?
I've got a voice like a gutter in a toxic storm

[Chorus]
All the dark words pouring from my throat
Sound like an oil slick coating the wings we've grown
There goes a love song drifting out to sea
I'd sing along if i could hear over the oil slick

[verse 2]
So it came to pass and i came home
With four worn out limbs and not one love song
How predictable this is all you got
Yet another selfish signpost to my ruin of faults

[Chorus]
All the dark words pouring from my throat
Sound like an oil slick coating the wings we've grown
There goes a love song drifting out to sea
I'd sing along if i could hear
Over the dark words pissing from my throat
Sounds like an oil slick coating the wings we've grown
There goes a love song drifting out of my reach
I'd sing along if i could see past the oil slick

[Outro]
There is light but there's a tunnel to crawl through
There is love but it's misery loves you
There's still hope so i think we'll be fine
In these disastrous times, disastrous times [x2]
