Текст песни The Lifeboat (Frank Turner) с переводом

There’s a shadow across the land

There’s a hatred and a hunger, and it’s hard to understand

How we fell so far from where we began

There’s a stumble now in our step

There’s blood in the phlegm, there’s a lump in the breast

There’s a smell of sickness on our breath

There’s a dread deep down in our bones

Something is finished, abandon your homes

Strike out into the great unknown

But there are no new continents to be found

No new frontiers to cross, no gold in the ground

Stay with the boats, lest ye be drowned

Save what you can

Behind us, the old world in flames

Lower the lifeboats, take the tiller

Steer the way

There are stories now worth being told

There are victories to grasp more valuable than gold

And we will speak of to our children when we’re old

There are battles now worth being fought

There are lessons to be learned and later to be taught

There are soldiers on the field who can’t be bought

There’s a clarity now in our view

From the prow we see far, all that’s is old now is new

Free at last, we know what we must do

There is hope now in the wind

And the millions who are marching demanding we be kind

From the new lands the lifeboats might find

Save what you can

Behind us, the old world in flames

Lower the lifeboats, take the tiller

Steer the way

Save what you can

Lower the lifeboats, steer the way

Find shore aground, oh the horizon through the waves

Steer a clear course to a new world, to a new day

Save what you can

Lower the lifeboats, steer the way
