Текст песни Demon Claws (Marlon Williams) с переводом

Well my name it doesn’t matter, my name I couldn’t tell

The reason I am standing here’s to tell you how I fell

They say a straw can break the back of a camel fully grown

I use a straw to pick my teeth and my back broke long ago

Once’d I had a family, once’d I had a wife

I went one day to walk away, a stranger I did spy

Standin' with a long black snake coiled around his hand

The sky crashed down upon us and mud rose from the sand

Before I fell into the dark, he opened up his jaw

So black and cold I shivered, but in the milky hole I saw

House and children, wife and me, a scene of peace and love

Those rotting teeth upon us, they crushed us from above

I told this to a sailor, he told me just the same

Twenty years at sea when he returned, not one remained

The fault was all his own, he said «You cannot fight the years

«By staring at a photograph and fighting back the tears»

Now, I have tried a thousand times to think about that day

How I could find another route or find another way

But time won’t pause, the demon’s claws will always bleed you dry

You take time here, it takes time from there, and you live until you die

You take time here, it takes time from there, and you live until you die

You take time here, it takes time from there, and you live until you die
