The Teenage Runaways - Pigment [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Catch the train at noon
Round trip to my brain and back
You'll find my mind exciting, just hope you make it back and soon
Or else you'll be doomed
Cause I've traveled through thousands of times and I still don't know my way around
Don't get lost in the dark because you'll get eaten alive
Another waste of a life
You aren't a cat, you don't get nine chances
You took your opportunity to thrive for granted
One of these days I'll get lost and I'll never be found
I'm adventerous and there's no way that you'll ever keep me contained and home bound
You can keep me under the water, deep down, but I'll hold my breath, I refuse to drown
I'll never step down from my position of running my run down playground
As long as I'm around, it'll be safe and sound
It won't get taken over by strange faces
And if they do take me to new and mysterious places
Don't you worry, I'll leave traces of my non-faded self on a shelf in a room that's called the closet
Where I keep the dust pan and the broom
Promise you'll free me no matter what the cost may be
And maybe if you follow through when I get back I'll look at you and give you a reward
It'll be small since that's all I can afford because I'm poor
No ifs ands or buts about it
Hate and doubt me all you want
In the end I'll be right, When aren't I?
Wanna battle? I'll fight to the death
I'll be like the big bad wolf and with a few huffs and puffs I'll blow you down
Shit I must've had bad breath
I'll rock and sock you like a robot, soon enough you'll get smart and come around

Meet me down town
You can take a trip down my alleyway
Don't judge me because it's filled with decay
I haven't cleaned myself up in awhile
It's just another thing that has compiled itself onto my to do list
Something that I've persistantly dismissed
Everytime I come across the thought, my attention span seems to drift
It's incredible how fast I can shift through topics
It's like I'm as fast as sonic
Someone help me please
Use some hypnotics on me before I explode like atomic bombs
Hopefully I'm making you nervous, got sweaty palms?
My madness has never broken through the surface
Like a petty cut, or a short lived burn from the side opposite of the butt
Of a cigarette
Basically I'm only a tiny threat
So don't you fret
I'm nothing that you'd ever regret for years
Don't waste any tears on me

Idiotic decisions reflect upon who you are
It won't be ironic if it's expected
Don't play russian roulette if you don't think you'll die
It's proven one hundred percent that you won't survive
So if you want too, cock it back and then let go, if you're still alive then reload
I'll laugh when your head explodes
It's sad that all of the knowledge you've spent years learning is now scattered all across this blank room
You've created point blank artwork
What an original piece of art, I like how it starts on the wall and ends on the floor
Too bad you couldn't have painted more
The room was a bit dull but I'm liking the shades you hid inside your skull
The pigment is pretty, although the way you create the splatter technique is shitty

I'm desperate and confused
It seems like I'm always wrongly accused of crimes that I didn't commit
I'd only admit my sins if I was under pressure
Even if you pester me, I'm much more clever than I'm thought to be
Don't you see? I'm not giving into your plea
So just shine some lights on me cause I'm about to show you something you've never seen before
It's time to settle the score
I'm gonna pull out a gun and shoot shells into the crowd
Cover your ears, it's about to get loud
It's amusing that when someone experiences the first sign of danger they scatter like ants
Can't you just take a chance?
That's why most romances fail
You take off your mask and your partner high tails it out of your sight
It's like a bird in flight
Are you worried now? You've gone pale
Your pigment is as white as a ghost
My soul's pigment is like burnt toast
Black like coal
Sink inside like a black hole
Once you're in my life you can't leave
So don't even think of pulling any tricks from your sleeve
I'm going to theive your freedom
You may be beaten down and broken
But escape is hopeless
You're mine forever
You're never leaving my side, you're chained to me
I don't care if we live for centuries, I'll never cast you aside
If you try leaving you'll crush my pride
Hearts collide with the tide and get washed away
But trust me we won't be like that, you'll never astray
If I have too, I'll put concrete slabs on your feet to weigh you down
Don't you dare frown, with me you have to be happy
Roll a fatty and inhale
