Текст песни Jonathan (Mr. Strange) с переводом

You knew from the first time

What you were, and what you weren’t

To be the bride and not the groom

Make-up hidden in your room

Boy, caught wearing a dress

With lipstick smeared across your face

Tears as the shame cuts deep

Damned, damned a disgrace

Waking to the same pain

Called the cruelest names

But please, feel no shame

You and me, we are the same

The person in the mirror

Is not the one in your heart

Our bodies in error

Tearing our souls apart

The years roll on

Self-hating

The tears roll on

It’s suffocating

You can’t lie to yourself

Jonathan

You can’t hide from yourself

Jonathan

You’re not who you’re meant to be

This dyspohria, tears at your heart

Trapped in the wrong skin

You’re not who you’re meant to be

There’s no end in sight, stuck at the start

Life’s wearing thin now

Stop

There’s a light at the end

(And you’re not alone.)

Just hang on, my friend

Wait

There’s strength in you

(And you’re not alone.)

You shine with a golden hue

Jonathan, you are free

Jonathan, you’ve done your best

You can’t lie to yourself, so pick up your head!

Jonathan, give them less

Force a smile, and put on your dress

No longer a son, wipe your tears away

The morning star brings a new day

Jonathan, you’re leaving now

One life dies, a new one begins

Spread your wings and shout out loud

My beautiful fallen angel, sing

Jonathan

Jonathan is gone

Amen

We are born again.

Jonathan is gone

Jonathan is gone.

(In this arid wilderness of steel and stone

I raise up my voice

That you may hear

Open your eyes that you may see

Oh men of mildewed minds

And listen to me

Ye bewildered millions!

For I stand forth to challenge the wisdom of the world

To interrogate the «laws» of man and of «God»!)
