Текст песни The Habit Of The Broken Heart (Van Der Graaf Generator) с переводом

Oh, the Sisters of Blindness

From the Convent of the Broken Heart

They want to smother it with kindness

They want to tear it all apart

And there’s a rock of sterile virtu'

In the centre of the bay…

I’m so sorry he hurt you

But don’t throw yourself away

You only wanted to have some fun

You only wanted to try it;

You only wanted to be someone

But everybody denies it

Why’s it so hard to make you listen?

Don’t go and change your name…

Learning to lose can be

The start of winning the game

You’re so special, such sadness seems a shame

I know that you’ve got a service to catch

I wouldn’t want you to miss it

But there’s something so mismatched

Some motive inexplicit…

Is it the call of the Convent?

You only wanted to find someone

Or something more than pleasure;

Penitence for the Chosen One

You can indulge at leisure —

By the light of the sinking sun

Don’t turn your back on the treasure

Whether or not you want to face it, you’re a beautiful girl

And your lay-lady laughter has a right to be heard;

But what can I give you if you’ve already got the Word?

Don’t go

Don’t start

Don’t take on

The Habit of the Broken Heart
