Текст песни The Whirlwind (Tom Morello / The Nightwatchman) с переводом

From zero to sixty

In one or two lifetimes

Can’t find the criminal

Just follow the pipeline

I’ll sing for my supper

Of fuel sand and shot

And pray that the cannons

Will pound the guilt I’ve got

Unwilling to negotiate

They fire from the precipice

An army of grizzlies

Divide up the rest of us

The problem I have

With the movie is just that

The cameras were shaky

And just missed the bloodbath

An ash-covered highway

Silent and frozen

I dreamed that you held me

It was me you were holdin'

I stood in the whirlwind

Of shrapnel and sawdust

Outside of the motel

And then it was just us

The borders are closin'

No one goes in or out

The assets all frozen

In sixteen Swiss bank accounts

A red raging migraine

A fear of hegemony

I looked back, I heard the shot

My friend said, «Wasn't me»

How can you sit back and wait?

The battle is raging

Hold on man, I’m comin'

Just straightening my cage first

Three hundred closed caskets

A world famous symphony

Of angry ghosts singin'

And marching from Wounded Knee

An ash-covered highway

Silent and frozen

I dreamed that you held me

It was me you were holdin'

I stood in the whirlwind

Of shrapnel and sawdust

Outside of the motel

And then it was just us

A colonial investment

In steel ore and iron

The natives are restless

Can’t blame 'em for tryin'

The lightning blows through

The legion it enters

The hail it follows

And smashes the center

I sit 'round the table

Of strangers and friends

My dad knows it’s comin'

Still, he pretends

My brother, he smiles

Reveals the secret

The stepmother shudders

She just can’t believe it

An ash-covered highway

Silent and frozen

I dreamed that you held me

It was me you were holdin'

I stood in the whirlwind

Of shrapnel and sawdust

Outside of the motel

And then it was just us

Then it was just us
