Текст песни: Don't Ask for the Water + перевод

I hate this old place

And what it represents

And I hate who I was

And who I ended up since

But if you learned how to swim

Just in case you’d drown

Don’t ask her for the water

'Cause she’ll swallow you down

And she’s ten miles of peace

And the hardest of nights

And her belfry’s got arch

But her rooftop’s all right

But down here in the sewer

I’m smelling a rat

Don’t ask her for the whiskey

'Cause her water’s all that

And what horses we rode

Through what somber fields

With our lovers at war

And the dust on our heels

And the infidels screamed

«It's all but a lie»

Don’t ask her for the water

'Cause she’ll teach you to cry

Don’t ask her for the water

'Cause she’ll teach you to cry

And her weapon of choice

Is a red-patterned dress

And a sack full of stones

With her hands on her chest

And a book full of quotes

And a tight fastened lip

Don’t ask her for the water

'Cause you’ll sink like a ship

Don’t ask her for the water

'Cause you’ll sink like a ship
