Текст песни Who Fell Asleep In (Los Campesinos!) с переводом

She turned her back on the church and put all her faith in me

At the back of the chapel

Where I taught her to screw and to blaspheme

We turned our backs to the church

With our trousers around our knees

While screaming the scriptures, she said I was her favourite heresy

In a note I read, «If you should go blind and deaf

I’ll cleanse and I’ll bathe you and I’ll cook for you daily

I will take a dry ballpoint pen and trace on your chest

All of the same conversations that we have now in bed»

I don’t mean to be selfish, but I think I’d sooner just be dead

Behind the tennis court alongside the river

Not a single live flower to see

This is the one girl who woke up from all that

And now falls asleep next to me

But I swear now, every time that I kiss her

She feels her god breathe on her shoulder

It pains me, but I’m sure she’s still yours

She said she wanted a sea burial

Not grass and hypodermics to her hips

I pruned the ivy from your grandmother’s tomb

More tender and careful than the superstitious

Ripped you from your mother’s womb

In a note I wrote, «I think too much about the end

But being around it made me feel like I’m coping

Now when I view the cemetery I don’t see headstones

I see rows of engraved middle teeth, hungry, waiting for me»

And though I am fearful, I think I just crave the relief

Behind the tennis court alongside the river

A paper flower’s still a beautiful thing

This is the one girl who woke up from all that

And now falls asleep next to me

But I swear now, every time that I kiss her

She feels her god breathe on her shoulder

It pains me, but I’m sure she’s still yours
