Текст песни Marfa Lights (Doug Moreland) с переводом

We stood out in the field all night

But we never saw the Marfa lights

Stared up at the stars all night

We couldn’t see the Marfa lights

Bath salts under basalt pillars

In the darkness outside town

There was a feed store, half fallen down

Red paint flaked off, red leaves gone brown

The sap had all been boiled down

Feed the paw

Eat the garlic raw

Defend the truth of what you saw

Stay above the law

We stood out in the field all night

But we never saw the Marfa lights

Stared up at the stars all night

We couldn’t see the Marfa lights

We’re gonna have to sit through our lives twice

First a tragedy and then a heist

First a comedy and then a farce

First the film and then the theatre arts

A rat ate my T-shirt while I slept

That’s fine. I got too many black t-shirts

A white rat can have one

And play like Chaplin for his rat friends

To the girl in the short skirt

Black tights and the Converse

Toes turned in, hugging herself with one hand

A drink in the other, like it’s a burden

Well, everybody’s hurting, I know

Everybody’s thwarted, I know

Everybody’s working toward a bigger kind of love

Everybody’s cursing their lot

Full to bursting, gonna pop

Ready for the breaking & burning

And certain of a bigger kind of love
