Текст песни: Exoskeletons for Children + перевод

Your home taught me to smile wide

And show all my teeth

Display anything vaguely sugary

Your home is a churning in the stomach

An unrest in the chest

Your home is straight out of central casting

There is a lot of space for mediocre white men

You are sharpening our picket fence

You say it’s to defend ourselves

The family room is like a lion’s mouth

I like what you did with the place

You really made it ours

We live in a haunted house of mirrors

I pay good money for my room

I pay in blood for this womb

But i tiptoe through my own kitchen

There are scary things around

Wearing human costumes

Let’s build exoskeletons for children

Let them know we got their backs

Let them know we got their noses

Let them know we got their pinkies ‚Äôtil they crack

So, I am building a brand new ruin

And what you’ve been doing?

That year I spent all summer on bloody knees

Taking pebbles from graves

Tangled up in possibilities

Getting the ringing in my ears engraved

And once you open your eyes it’d hard to unsee

That the stains stains stains are everywhere

There’s significance

In stabbing someone with a pencil

There’s ignorance

In every brick of the home

There’s brilliance

In the unsentimental

There’s brilliance

In the unsentimental

(and we’re outta here

We name ourselves

And we tattoo it under the skin of our hands)

Let’s build exoskeletons for children

Let them know we got their backs

Let them know we got their noses

Let them know we got their pinkies til they crack
