Текст песни: Heavy Flag + перевод

I shiver like a paper bag

The cold can wave a heavy flag

And nothing shines like silver lines

When everyone’s a paradigm

And all around is double speak

I hide it in a troubled sleep

In mountains bare on pavement plain

In waves of pesticided grain

I recognize the truth when it shakes hands with self-deceit

Pays for my beliefs and throws away the receipt

It’s all in my head, and then it’s nestled at my feet

Heavy flag

A farrago of motion sick

A turbulence arithmetic

We passed a thousand billboard signs

And trampled over columbines

But how do we choke down the pain?

With nicotine to tease the brain

Our bladed lives with softened edge

We pop our pills and speak our pledge

I recognize the truth when it shakes hands with self-deceit

Pays for my beliefs and throws away the receipt

It’s all in my head, and then it’s nestled at my feet

Heavy flag

Our sympathy’s a symphony

But everyone is out of key

Cause we locked the doors and turned the blinds

And left it to the focused eye

We dug a shallow rabbit’s grave

Deposited our given names

And when our pride was railroad flat

Shook away the warmth of a welcome mat

I recognize the truth when it shakes hands with self-deceit

Pays for my beliefs and throws away the receipt

It’s all in my head, and then it’s nestled at my feet

Heavy flag

I recognize the truth when it shakes hands with self-deceit

Pays for my beliefs and throws away the receipt

It’s all in my head, and then it’s nestled at my feet

Heavy flag
