Текст песни: City Full of Cowards + перевод

I used to have a friend

Who skipped a maximum-security prison

And he used to call her Jasmine

He doesn’t call anymore

He spends six out of seven days drunk and passed out on the floor

And Jasmine got burned by her friends

Who said that she should go running after him

But she’ll never make that mistake again

Or so she says tonight

But she kisses his picture and turns out the light

A city full of cowards is this

We’d give 'em just enough rope to commit

But there’s been too much wine under the bridge

And my eyes have become immune

To everything I take from you

You wander around on a crutch

Why don’t you just lay it down and shut up

With thoughts as pure as the driven slush

And a cool insanity

From everything you take from me

Get the pigs into the pen

It’s a pad-lock slapping sound

Put a shotgun to its head

And hit the ground

Separate the meat from bone

Take some care

'Cause blood is everywhere

Waiting, salivating

Speaking, sink the teeth in

Sleeping, I’m too deep in

Digging, your way out of here

One more beer and I’ll go home

I’m hung-over with philosophies of every woman that I’ve known

And «sex isn’t sex», and «love isn’t stone»

And I wish that I could relax

But another day has fallen through the cracks
