Текст песни: Tie Me Up! Untie Me! + перевод

I was looking at the leaves

Climbing to the tops of the trees

But you were nowhere to be found

Just beneath all the green

You were buried like a little seed

Among the roots and underground

I was licking at the leaves

But I was in short sleeves and you

You were like some sickness that I caught

And my sweetheart moved away

Swept off like garbage in the alleyway

And I need more grace than I thought

(Oh, please, brother, I’m far…

Brother, I’m far away…

Brother, I’m far away from everything

Oh, brother, I’m far…

Brother, I’m far away…

Brother! I’m far away from everything good!)

She’s like a hot cloth on a fevered head

And like a needle she leads me (while I follow like thread)

Tie me up! Untie me!

All this wishing I was dead is getting old

It’s gettin' old!

… it goes on, but it’s old

I was swimming through the waves

For what must have been days

But could find no relief

When I started sinking down

I thought for certain I would drown

Until I saw you in the ocean

Underneath

All the bright colored fish tell

Of a treasure in a dull shell

«Such subtlety, so easily missed!»

You, my hidden pearl of pure and perfect love

And I’m the living example

Of 100% the opposite of this

(If I ask the same questions…

Well, yes, sir, I ask the same questions

Well, well maybe I repeat myself from time to time

But if I ask the same questions…

And then I know I ask the same questions

It’s because everyone who answers me is a liar!)

She’s like the hot cloth on a fevered head

And like a needle she leads me (while I follow like thread)

But you untied me… didn’t You untie me, Lord?

And now I haven’t even thought about killing myself

In almost five months
