No Bird Sing - River Blue Truth [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Verse:
I’m amazed we still belong to our fragments after all of their changes
Used ‘ thrown away ‘ we’ve been bruised
But got used to it way before it seemed to fit with our new sickness
New ‘ but not different ‘ No
It’s not different ‘ Show a little sympathy please
It’s easier than you think ‘
And I refuse to be pink ‘ if you’re not gonna be blue
What the hell are we doing here?
And why is the fruit fake?
We started the toothache

Chorus:
So what you getting at the man in the booth for?
You’re the one that taught him to be super
Now he’s just another stranger in your headspace
Who knows you’re dead weight so you drag him ‘round by his red cape

What you getting at the man in the booth for?
When you’re the one that taught him to be super
Now he’s just another stranger in a costume
Who knows your way home so you think he’s waiting to rob you

Bridge x2:
The river is an evil thing
Full of pain and thievery
It’s got ‘em all believing there’s important daydreaming to do
[daydreaming to do]

Verse:
Unless the river is truth and it’s a matter of breathing
Feeling like it’s a choice for me to shine my shoes
And march myself up to the front line to find my peace in a thunderous sunrise
But times like this ‘ that skyline is wishing well
Glistening with gold coins that floated when they should’ve fell
A hundred years and all I got is this vice grip
On 16 candles burning bright as my life is
I’d give anything to not give anything up
So maybe fear is enough ‘ to make us Thelma and Louise off this cliff in a rush
To be famous and no, it’s not much, but it’s more than we need
Just undress the scenery ‘ confess those wings ain’t as fly as they seem to be
Why do we insist on being bygones only after they turn all the lights on?
