Текст песни: A Place Where I Can Breathe + перевод

I only wanted such a little thing

Only simplicity

And now that i am who i was taught to be

You have abandoned me

I held so tightly to every word you said

That’s the price of the respect you’ve always demanded

And all those things i’ve gathered through the years

Have no value here

I need to find a place where i can breathe

Somewhere high above this empty landscape

Where the air is clear

And i need to find it while i still can

In a world like this

How can you wonder at my sadness?

Now i hope for something beautiful

But i feel trapped under your waves of wreckage

And if i cannot claw my own way through

I fear one day i will be just like you

In this land of vacant stars

In the backseats of desperate cars

In single-mother topless bars

We ache for something more

Your sons and your daughters

Are unwilling martyrs

To the devils, priests, and other thieves

And their wars and rumors of war

I need a handgun and a hand grenade

To protect me from those who keep me safe

Still i remember you straight face:

«Some day this will all be yours.»
