Текст песни: Solace + перевод

The world is not a happy place

The people in it are not nice

There’s danger lurking everywhere

And there are snakes in paradise

You have to work it out somehow

I’m through with giving you advice

Don’t listen to a word I say

Who taught you, son, to trust that way?

The world is not a pretty place

The people in it couldn’t care

What trusting men and women do

Won’t make allowances for you

You have to work it out somehow

Find a way and muscle through

For you will find as I have found

There’s no one will take care of you

That way lies madness and despair

I can tell you, I’ve been there

The world is not an easy place

You learn to swim or else you drown

There’s poison in the drinking cup

Where cynicism knows no bounds

And you’ll find beauty everywhere

It isn’t easy to ignore

Though you will find some solace there

Of pointless beauty, child, beware

In righteousness, for glory’s sake

Turn on your heel from your mistakes

Don’t listen to a word they say

Who taught you, son, to trust that way?
