Текст песни Jaybird (Comets On Fire) с переводом

Seen you smiling, good as rain

To the scorched moss in the canyons and the burning leaves

The windmills with their sorrow and cold eye

Standing on a hill

With arms as still as dirt in a tomb

Crying «where is the wind?»

We hit the air like feathers blowing south

The places that we’ve come and been

Nearly brought us to our knees

I see your smile through the fire of the burning lives

Ashes whipping up like water down a drain

Hang your head…

Heard you laughing as real as tears

The sound comes falling off your lips and eyes

And shakes the ground

The scarecrows with their spiteful eyes

Their arms hung down to their sides

Wondering what of their great deed deserves such defeat

I’ve seen a killing in the cold wild snow

The tones that rang from off the blade

Were never heard beyond the deed

I see your smile through the fire of burning lives

Ashes whipping up like water down a drain

Hang your head on me

[With luck we’ll haul her

This stinking swamp will surely drown

The ocean wind had gone through

The scars they’re hidden from their head

It’s hidden in the tree

They were swinging like a frightful runnin'

And the heart as naked as a Jaybird

It brought me on my knees…]

I see your smile through the fire of burning lives

Ashes whipping up like water down a drain

Hold your head high!
