The Collection - Scala Naturae [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Mira-joy Wimbish]
I was born and then orphaned by parents of sin
And the preachers and pastors were listening in
I was baptized with water the day it happened
Now I’m leaving my chains all behind

So they called up the neighbors to tell them the news
A young baby child that the world can abuse
I cried, and I cried, and they called it a ruse
Now I’m leaving my chains all behind

[Mira-joy and David Wimbish]
I had realized the night for the day I turned seven
That even if acting nice could get you to heaven
The Earth that you live in will treat you like hell
So I’m leaving my chains all behind

Now, I remember sadly the youth of my day
The minute they found out young Jacob was gay
They stoned him with words and they stuck him with trees
Now I’m leaving my chains all behind

[David]
Then I got to the age when I thought I was a man
And I wondered when we’d learn the grand master plan
But what if the plan is just to live till you die?
Well then I’m leaving my chains behind

And you brought me a woman right into my life
And we found out that love is full of heartache and strife
But the jagged edges wear down the more that they grind
So now I'm leaving my chains all behind

[Mira-joy]
“But I don’t believe all the things that I did when me and mine lived all the places we live”

[David]
It’s ok, baby, to change what you think
Change can be good, no, it don’t make you weak
Someday you’ll grow to a beautiful tree:
How I want to sing under your leaves

Now I’m in my twenties, and I'm finding my way
You pay for your work, and you work for your pay
If I live, or I die, at least there’s love either way
Now I’m leaving my chains all behind

So bring all your lepers and your blind men to see
There’s a love in our bodies, and it won’t let you be
If you open your hands, it’ll set us all free
Now I’m leaving my chains all behind

[Mira-joy]
If he comes through the clouds, it could set us all free
Now I’m leaving my chains all behind
