Guante & Big Cats - The Damp Foggy Midnight [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I met a horse in the Midwest
Black as the midnight, fast as the sunset
She was the one breath left in the lungs of the country
We rode on every road was a drumbeat
So I’d nod my head as if I agreed leaving was common sense
And every city would burn, the smoke’d creep higher
But we ride smoke and I can breath fire
No regrets no apologies
And no symptoms of what I carried along with me
In the damp foggy midnight
One horseman courses, doing the work of four (story of my life)
No spite this is righteous, after a fashion
This is justice, after a fashion
This is America, this is madness
This is what happens, when you dig your fingertips
Into a face and expect it to smile
What happens when the proof is piling up
But you’re addicted to your own denial
This is what happens to a heartland
When every artery is clogged with refugees
When the runaway slaves run straight to the armory
Find the weapons and set them free
This is what happens
Call it an equal and opposite reaction, ashes to ashes
My heroes are burning and getting stuck in my eyelashes
So I rock sunglasses through the nuclear winter
She always appreciated fashion
And this isn’t an excuse or a justification
Shit, this is just what happens…
So many of us are so close
All we need is one more push
So many of us are so close
So many, so all alone
So many of us are so close
All we need is one more push
So many of us are so close
And I ain’t talkin’ ‘bout home

So many of us are so close
All we need is one more push
So many of us are so close
So many, so all alone
So many of us are so close
All we need is one more push
So many of us are so close
Watch how we explode

I met a woman in a nightmare
I couldn’t wake up but she did
I couldn’t figure out whose dream it was
So I pinched myself to pieces
And peace is meaningless in the absence
Of justice so we willingly ride to war
And all I want is to say I’m sorry
But I’m not

Where do you go when you’ve run out of road
And the road is the only home you’ve ever known?
It’s like I’m trapped in amber
She gives me a smile instead of an answer
And I take it
