Текст песни: Turpentine + перевод

I can’t tell if this is real or if I am sleeping

I’ll embroider the truth

And that’s so I shall reap

I took things that didn’t belong to me

I didn’t mean to do you wrong

Looking back on all that stolen time

Back when I was drinking turpentine

Don’t blame me

I only took you in

It takes time to do the poisoning

So let’s close the door on this and lock it

And that’s all it will ever be

Just an accident of chemistry

You did everything to me but stopped short of murder

Couldn’t move me much closer to keeping my word

While the crowds threw stones at the hangman

The sky fell down

The bells rang

Looking back on all that stolen time

Back when I was drinking turpentine

Don’t blame me

I only took you in

It takes time to do the poisoning

So let’s close the door on this and lock it

And that’s all it will ever be

Just an accident of chemistry

Airless shaft of an underground railway

Effete assassin with a hawk in a sack

The earth will offer us in when our hearts fail

As it swallowed the river running under the track

Under the track, yeah

I can’t tell if I’m dreaming or if I’ll awaken

With a song in my heart that is longing to break

Let it out and let it fly high

Up where the spires scrape the sky

Looking back on all that stolen time

Back when I was drinking turpentine

Don’t blame me

I only took you in

It takes time to do the poisoning

So let’s close the door on this and lock it

And that’s all it will ever be

Just an accident of chemistry

Airless shaft of an underground railway

Effete assassin with a hawk in a sack

The earth will offer us in when our hearts fail

As it swallowed the river running under the track

Under the track, yeah
