Текст песни The Same Old Sad Tale (Blue Mammoth) с переводом

How far should I swim through this empty river

‘Till I can find myself peace again?

How long will a man keep feeding children

Lies about love, life and history?

When will we forget all those endless memories

Of when we caused pain to our fellow man?

And when will we start to cherish the moment

Before it all comes to an end?

Now I can feel my heart slowly sinking

Into this dark cold nothingness

While you count all your cold blood pennies

That you took away from the helpless

Where can I find the road to freedom?

Has anyone ever really been there?

Has anyone seen my good friend, Hope?

Or has she been laid down to rest?

Now why don’t we all just pick up the pieces

And try to start all over again?

And maybe one day we can create a future

Filled with joy and good friends

Never forgetting the dead ones

Heroes without nor past and nor name

Who is to blame for this same old sad tale

The time has come to swallow our pride

And throw away the tools of destruction

I’m sure we can learn to share our possessions

And cut off the roots of corruption

Then we can sail through this long river

Filled with life, love and hope, my friend

As we set our sails towards freedom

And travel away from the bitter end
