Текст песни The Big Sleep (Streetlight Manifesto) с переводом

Why do you cry when you know how the story ends?

How can you laugh when you know that it hurts your friends?

We’ve all been there once, but you never left

This is me coming back to get you out to say goodbye, to make amends

I’m not leaving this place

Unless I’m leaving with you

'Cause you’re the only person with a half decent heart here

And I know you will put it to use

Until it’s gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, yeah

Na, na, na…

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me, yeah

Na, na, na…

And if you go, I’ll be gone

And you’ll be left alone to live your life, as you please

But someday you’ll agree that I was always meant for you

You were always meant for me and you will see… that you’re impossible

You’re impossible

You’re impossible

You’re impossible

Me and Mr. Dylan on the ride home

We had a heart-to-heart about lifee

But neither him or me could decide for ourselves if we wanted to outlive that

night

Like two children on the playground of the unconfessed souls

Abandoned by our mothers and our lovers and our foes

If only we were brave enough to live the lives we stole

What a wonderful world this could be!

Na, na, na…

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me, yeah

Na, na, na…

And if you go, I’ll be gone

And you’ll be left alone to live your life, as you please

But someday you’ll agree that I was always meant for you

You were always meant for me and you will see… that you’re impossible

You’re impossible

You’re impossible

You’re impossible

So, how many more examples until we break?

So how many sacrifices must we make?

Because we’ve all been there once before

And it looks like we’ve returned once more

So is this the beginning or the end?

The last two soldiers on the battlefield

Survivors of the war

They aim at one another while their mothers beg the lord

«If you’re listening, I’m missing him

So somehow bring him home

How did it come to this?»

So the soldiers lift their rifles

And they’re aiming at the head

They think of their first love before they take their final breaths

And somewhere in the distance they hear something someone said…

«How did it come to this?»

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me, yeah

Na, na, na…

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me, yeah

Na, na, na…
