Текст песни By & By (Nick Lutsko) с переводом

Mississippi told me

Don’t lament in the sun

Pretend to love your neighbors

And register your guns

Did we forget how far we’ve come?

And how do we keep on insisting

To beat a broken drum?

Stitch the skin across my eyes

Sing hallelujah by & by

I’d rather fall than watch you fly

Sing hallelujah by & by

Mississippi hold me

Keep me safe from the shame

Sing me songs of hallelujah

With the hatred in your veins

Did we forget the price he paid?

And why do we keep on resisting

The laws in which he —

Stitch the skin across my eyes

Make me deaf to all their cries

Make them wish they weren’t alive

Until their deviance subsides

Oh Mississippi I…

I clench my fists and toe the line

Stitch the skin across my eyes

Sing hallelujah by & by

I’d rather fall than watch you fly

Sing hallelujah by & by

Stitch the skin across my eyes

Sing hallelujah by & by

I’d rather fall than watch you fly

Sing hallelujah by & by

Stitch the skin across my eyes

Sing hallelujah by & by

I’d rather fall than watch you fly

Sing hallelujah by & by

Sing hallelujah by & by

Sing hallelujah by & by

Sing hallelujah by & by

Sing hallelujah by & by

Sing hallelujah by & by

Sing hallelujah by & by
