Текст песни: Carlsbad + перевод

I went into the hole with you

to give silence a name

and to know who we’ve both been talking to,

to strike a match and light a flame.

But the darkness was complete

and the weight of it was intense.

Our tongues were tightly reigned---

none of this makes any sense.

Oh don’t hide yourself away

like a prisoner underground

don’t leave the light of day

for this hiding place you’ve found.

A subterranean river moves

to hollow out an empty place.

Can you feel it in you heart?

I can see it in your face.

And the man in the uniform

tells me about the weight of stone

and there’s a child who’s on vacation,

but he’s crying to go home,

And the wonder of a cavern

is the time that it takes

to carve a space of silent blackness,

and the hollow sound it makes.

I have traveled south

across the barren dirt,

and I will open up my mouth,

and I will say the words---

We will talk of love and friendship,

we will talk of poetry,

and we will talk about the pain

that carves the holes in you and me.

I can feel it in my heart…, can you see it in my face?
