Текст песни Frankie Stubbs' Tears (Franz Nicolay) с переводом

Trees are cannibals

They eat their own

Turn the hearts of oak and bark to loam

And limestone

Poor forked radish

Feet set in bone

Concentrate on things you’ve left unfinished

And unknown

Be of good heart. Our songs will all be silenced

So what? We’ll go on singing

Put out the pilot light

And gather up the bottles

The beer will trace the hollows

The remnants of the waters

Of Frankie Stubbs' tears

You make forgetting look like fun

Standing out there with your coat undone

The centerpiece of the mise-en-scene set in the setting sun

Sight unseen, you could be anyone

The light in your hair and your hands in your jeans

You could be anyone

These are the ways

These are the ways we remember

This is the passage of life through our minds

This is a memory, a weakening pearl in a chain

This is how mysteries form on a grain of sand

Fear is an animal

That feeds alone

Remembered once in haste and once in calm
