Текст песни Recklessness & Rust (Krista Detor) с переводом

Everything returns to dust, everything returns to rust

Is that the buckle on your shoe ~ soon be copper-colored, too

All this recklessness and rust drives the whole of us

To catch the light or catch the bus before it’s gone

There might be music, she said, left in the crumbling plaster

In waltzing angels whispering secrets to the alabaster

I will go breathless, whispering a name

I will go breathless, pirouetting in the flame

And drift like wishes in the orange blossom air ~

But I will go, I will go breathless there

Across the bridges, through the moors, across a million marble floors

The surface cracking at your feet, so you tread lightly on the street

Because all this recklessness and rust, is sometimes too much for us

Keep your eyes fixed up ahead so you don’t see it.

‘Poetry is dead,' Delilah said, ‘maybe in a pocket somewhere in Prague

But that’s all that’s left of it, and aren’t you a good dog…'

I will go breathless, no one will write it down

I will go breathless, in a chocolate paper gown

Melt into the river, let the story drift away ~

But I will go breathless into that good day

Little do they know that I could rise up from the world

And pick the pockets of the angels ~ come back here, a rich girl

Oh I will go breathless, skipping every stair

I will go breathless, throwing pennies in the air

And turn out every pocket for the very last refrain ~

I will go breathless into that good rain

I will go breathless, whispering a name

I will go breathless, pirouetting in the flame

And drift like wishes in the copper autumn light ~

I will go breathless into that good night …
