Текст песни: The Present + перевод

The present is in fact not a present

Even though I’m glad that it’s here at all

I’d like to think that something is gonna happen

When I know damn well that it won’t

All I’ll ever do is behold

Pull yourself together

When you’re the primary feather

This is what you have been waiting for

You want progress, here is the antidote

A bit of your life in a cage

Feel like an ink stain on a wisdom laden page

The junkies wail

When their veins aren’t setting sail

As when there is a strong gale

13 on the Beaufort Scale

A grain of sand is land out in the open waters

In the city that pretends not to sleep

I’ve been having maddening dreams

And I certainly hope that they weren’t of the prophetic kind

‘Cause my mind ain’t ready for the apocalypse

I wanna play poker and kiss on her luscious lips

The junkies wail

When their veins aren’t setting sail

As when there is a strong gail

13 on the Beaufort Scale

A grain of sand is land out in the open waters

I’ve got a feeling that we’re all going under

A hive mind with collective blunders

What’s there to mind about a hive mind

Seven billion intertwined

Together in it for the long run

So what good have I ever done
