Текст песни Still Waters (Alternative 4) с переводом

When I fell, I’d grown tired of treading water

Folk changing like the weather

Begrudging what was mine

At the tolling bell, oh they huddled undercover

Played us off against each other

We took the bait and crossed the line

In the midst of all our dreaming

Catch a glimpse of where we’re heading

Walk away from past redeeming

As we know that paths misleading

Disdain sold me up the river

Stole a part of me forever

Made this compromise together

I was trading trust for never

…yet little did I know

At the turn of the day

I didn’t feel the last hour burning

Saw no need for shallow yearning

God you’ll miss it when you’re turned in

So far away

Over mountains of persuasion

Paved a gateway for the vermin

To the sycophant communion

Came a heartless violation

From pathetic opposition

A deep and meaningless oppression

Had to smother out those lies

Six degrees of defamation

Prolonged years of degradation

Despite tears and reformation

I was there to rectify

Yet little do you know
