Langhorne Slim & The Law - Salvation [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I've been looking for salvation
I've been searching low and high
I'm tired of being patient;
All this waiting's been a waste of time
And it's no wonder how we got here;
In many ways, I wrote this script
By loading all our treasures
Into the belly of a sinking ship
I tried to hold you but my hands were cold;
I meant to catch you but I moved too slow
I hate to leave, but it's time to go
Well, our love has left us tired;
This love has beat us black and blue
It's the child that's still in me
That wants even though we're through
I tried to hold you but my hands were cold;
I meant to catch you but I moved too slow
I need to leave but I know it's time to go
And I've been looking for salvation
I've been searching low and high
I forgot that it was waiting
In your smile and in your eyes
Down the hills and through the winding roads
You hold my mind and I've lost control
I never meant to fully disappear;
Now that you're gone, it has become clear
I hope to see you before hell gets cold
I'm scared to leave, but I know it's time to go
