Текст песни Godspeed Us to Sea (Every Time I Die) с переводом

Turns out I never had a thought at all

I’ve been talking in my sleep

Reciting teleprompted anthems

A marionette strung tight

To the executives upstairs

I almost had myself convinced

That I meant everything I said

(What a shame)

Oh captain, my captain

You’ve been drinking

What happened?

I’ve been slurring my cadences

And blacking out when I stand

I know all about your son

Who never did return from the war

But there was poison in that bottle, I tell you

Tell the tower I’ve been hijacked

Tell the gunman this vehicle’s been stolen

I’m coming out with my hands in the air

I’m coming out with my hands in the air

The voice on this tape that you’re hearing isn’t me

The voice on this tape isn’t mine

There’s been a horrible mistake

I’m a proud God-fearing registered democrat

This is all the same elaborate scheme

And it will be cleared up when the Governor beckons for me

He’ll clear my name

It appears that the inmates have overrun the asylum

There’s a madman at the wheel

There’s a madman at the wheel

We are not even remotely capable of keeping our heads about us

We’ve abandoned all semblance of presence

Dead bolted, buckled in

Keeping our word to a sinking ship

Let the rats orchestrate the new mutiny

I’ll meet you overboard

I’ll meet you overboard
