Текст песни Unless God Appears First (The Elms) с переводом

I was born beside the Erie in the summertime

And lived inside the rust buckle till the age of nine

I broke the rules of the preacher and his blessed little wife

I turned the left side of truth into the center of life

I pulled the gray and the gold out of the black and the white

I’ve got a heart that’s full of equal parts

Of fear and faith, and they say

Unless God appears first, I will die that way

I sing sad songs, I get high some

I got nothin' to prove

Baby winnin' or lose I’m the same and I say

Unless God appears first, I will die this way

I remember kissin' Julie on a Friday night

I told her she was the one and then she let me inside

I stole the trust of a woman who was only ever kind

I called her after a year, in a moment of need

She didn’t mention that night or ask no penance of me

I was convicted and forgiven in an instant on that day

And I say, unless God appears first, I got debts to pay

I sing sad songs, I get high some

I got nothin' to prove

Baby winnin' or lose I’m the same and I say

Unless God appears first, I will die this way

And if heaven comes or I hear it calling

From the mansions behind pearly gates

I’ll go at night or on horses of fire

Through whirlwind and wire with a grin on my face

Unless God appears first, I will fly away
