Текст песни: The Complete Family + перевод

We walked down the block through the dead trees

You were smiling

And I was smiling too

From the time we were little

You were always taller, thinner

You were a kind of lanky Matt Dillon

I was strong but awkward

And born with an armour of imagination

I loved music

And so did you

But you loved those loud guitars

And venom

That venom with a lost angry sadness

While I lived in the sadness

I remember Roy Orbison on an AM radio

All falsetto and loneliness

That day was so sharp it cut through glass and warmed the carpet underneath me

You were out with your friends

Your best friend’s name was Ray

He’s in jail now

A few weeks ago you were sentenced as well

I sat in my room still surrounded by a sad song thinking

Thirty years

It’s been thirty years

And you’re going to be in there for thirty years

Now I remember that day you had just gotten out of rehab

And I was happy to see you

Happy to hope

That from that point forward

All would be better

And I was proud of you

And we were going home

The complete family

A complete family

Just you and me

Mom and Dad

A complete family
