Текст песни: A Pound of Flesh + перевод

My feet plow on

From light to dawn

My empty belly and my body aches

Ain’t hard to take

Next to the weight I carry in my chest

A pound of flesh

Could never tip the scale that I’ve made

I should have stayed

But I was never wise

I hear your voices in the wind

That cuts the night

And I pray to whatever is listening

Things’ll be alright

Oh my boy you’re alive

Your heart’s still beating

So don’t you mind

Don’t you mind

We all drift sometimes

I can still hear your feet

As you ran from the house

Knowing you won’t be back

Doesn’t mean that I will stop waiting

You told me then:

«Hold me down, hold me up to the fire

But don’t you dare hold me back!»

I see your faces in the clouds

That scar the night

And I pray to whoever is listening

Things’ll be alright

Then today I wake up feeling easy

And find I’m on a more familiar road

I got a darkness wrapped inside me

But now it ain’t so hard to let it go

So leave your candle burning in the window

I’m almost home
