Jeff Burgess & The Bad Mares - Spiderbite [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

You got a spider bite
And maybe you told me you'd be alright
You got a spider bite
You didn't know what to do

Oh I wasn't lonely but I wasn't free
Until the chance came to me

And if I had the choice I'd choose to live
And I would swallow my own pride
And surely I would find
A fantasy where you would just forgive me
I am not afraid to lose
For I am slave to what I choose to be
If I fail I will
Be content to hide inside myself

You got a spider bite
Yet you seemed to think you had to fight
You got a spider bite
My dreams were coming true

Each photograph of you up on a stage
Just seemed to jump from the film, from the page
Why did you quit in a rage?

Art is a fallacy
A swallowing of pride because
Inside I know what it oughta be
That which strikes to the heart of me
Booming bass of my soul's beat
Something within that controls me
Speaks to the world "now behold me"
Shatters to pieces the old me
And you coulda had it all
What were you thinking, how could you fall
From the limelight cast on your soul on blast
You were so damn beautiful, body musical
Fluttershy do you know what I'd give
Only for an ounce of the life you'd lived?
I would kill for the fame
I would strangle the world till it coughed my name
I would feed on the pain, no shame
Greed seething, eating away at the brain
But you know what's most fucked up?
The part I'm most jealous of?
I love how you walked away
I wish I could just walk away
End this dream that seems to be in a reeling whirlwind of dismay
But I can't go back now
This is my language
All the words I know never will be heard
In the dark roads where I languish
By the time this night goes by I'll be relapsed on my hopes
Writing all this out as a route to be back once more with my back to the ropes

I got a spider bite
An itch of the songs that I should write
I got a spider bite
I'm driven just like you

If I had wings I'd be touching the stars
Maybe some magic will map where you are
So when I'm done I can show you so far
I still think of you
You will be there too
In my fantasies
In my wildest dreams
