Текст песни Blank Screens (The Static Age) с переводом

We wake up in the west

in pieces on blank screens

a requiem for radio

we’ve been singing in our sleep

the chorus will laugh it off

with hearts buried in the dream

singing softly

there’s a fire in the east tonight

that no one’s putting out

watch the doves as they scatter

as they shout each other down

and the body politic swears

oh it couldn’t be our fault

with soldiers marching

they’ll laugh and they’ll dance

as they pull at your strings

with white rooms and white lies

and with black and white dreams

they’ll paint you a picture

they’ll sell you a scene

electric and alive

the canopy breathes

there’s a world at our window

and a swan song on our lips

and each of our self-interest sins

slaughter faith’s indulgences

all the silence of the lambs

all the chill of the scientist

they bleed us like this

they’ll laugh and they’ll dance

as they pull at your strings

with white rooms and white lies

and with black and white dreams

they’ll paint you a picture

they’ll sell you a scene

electric and alive

the canopy breathes

fall in and out

of love and sleep

silently

but i never said that love was free

and i never said that love was cheap
