Текст песни: I Saw The Weak Hand Fall + перевод

I came into the square

I lent my violin on the double bass

The bass toppled on slowly over

The streamers hung wet from the sky

The color flooded away

The huge man’s leg had fallen off

They were winching him away

Black strings of life hung from his stump

The air around him heavy

We clutched our hands together

And watched the crane lead the mourning

His color had run so far away

Not even rain would stick to him

In between the sheets of starchy plastic

There’s a collar softly cotton wool

When you run away beyond the precipice

Or whispered in the leaves

You whisper like a shell to me

A silent mouth shepherding the breeze

I’ll count your ticks forever, but your time will never come

Returning every time to nothing and to one

The silk will ripple one more time

In waves of nothing reaching for the edge

I will hear nothing, at the end

I’ll have seen nothing, by the end

In the beginning I heard nothing at all

In the beginning I saw the weak hand fall

In the beginning I heard nothing at all

In the beginning I saw the weak hand fall
