Текст песни: Phoenix + перевод

If I spoke in just cliches

I’d say life’s short, live today

There’s not more for me to say

I can’t do this one more day

I can’t fall in love

I can’t push and shove

No more becoming a toy

For another white boy

And have you seen my eyes?

In them, I carry worlds ‘bout twice the size

Of the one beneath your feet

So darling take a seat

And I don’t care about your family name

I don’t care about your local fame

I had my heart locked in a cage

And then you took it out to play

It’s frightening to say

That you’re the one that’s in my way

I can’t sit around and wait

For you to pack and go away

I can’t fall in love

I can’t push and shove

No more wasting all my joy

On another white boy

And have you seen my eyes?

In them, I carry worlds ‘bout twice the size

Of the one beneath your feet

So darling take a seat

And I don’t care about your family name

I don’t care about your local fame

I had my heart locked in a cage

And then you took it out to play

And I don’t think that you’ll ever see

My true colors, my complexity

But I have nothing to prove to you

And I want nothing to do with you

And I don’t care ‘bout your family

Your last name means not one thing to me

I might as well call you something as bad

As the way you treated me

And like a phoenix, I’ll rise from thee
