Текст песни The Catalyst (Meridian) с переводом

I think that I was distracted the day you came home

I was so used to airplanes and cellular phones

We were dead set on making up for lost time

Well, you can seek, but you won’t find

Well the only thing stopping myself is my mind

Like a concrete wall stacked a thousand feet high

They said, «You'd better start digging or learn how to fly.»

I said, «No thanks, I’ll just walk right on through.»

Said, «No thanks, I’ll just walk right on through.»

I walk with a weight in my shoes

An invisible cloud around my head

I keep my fears by my side

In hopes that one day they might serve as a catalyst for something else more

positive

I think that I was distracted that night on the roof

And when the cops showed up you were tying your shoes

Said, «Come on, we don’t have any time, don’t you see?»

You said, «Time don’t have anything for me»

So I smiled and I laughed as I crawled back inside

Fell drunk on the ground and knocked over the light

I said, «With everyone I love, I leave some pieces behind»

You said, «I know how you feel, it’s alright»

Said, «I know how you feel, it’s alright»

I walk with a weight in my shoes

An invisible cloud around my head

I keep my fears by my side

In hopes that one day they might serve as a catalyst for something else more

positive

So I wallow and drown

I kick and I flail

Heaving and panting and gasping for air

Sick of the cyclical nature of things

And the doubts and regrets and the trees with no leaves

So I walk through the train yards and run in the street

But that sinister, smiling cycle repeats

And I climb up the stairs and collapse on the floor

I don’t know what to think anymore

I don’t know what to think anymore

Don’t think I ever did

I think that I’ve been distracted for most of my life in a sea made of pavement

and yellow-dashed lines

With everyone you love, you leave some pieces behind

So dry your eyes now, it’s alright
