Frightened Rabbit все тексты (слова) песен, переводы, видео, клипы

I am that dickhead in the kitchen
Giving wine to your best girl's glass
I am the amateur pornographer
Unpleasant publisher by hand

Not here, not here, heroic acts of man
Not here, not here, heroic acts of man

I have a long list of tepid disappointments
it doesn't mention you
And if I'm honest your name could be upon it
if this didn't feel so good

In an otherwise disappointing life made right
On an otherwise disappointing night, there's a fire
I don't need water I just want to wave goodbye, goodbye

i'm working on my backwards walk
walking with no shoes or socks
and the time rewinds to the end of may
i wish we'd never met then met today

i'm working on my faults and cracks
filling in the blanks and gaps

All our secrets are smothered in dirt, underneath paving stones
Lying waiting to be told
Some stay hidden, while some get found
Like our long lost soul, like a stone beneath the ground

Backyard skulls, deep beneath the ground
All those backyard skulls, not deep enough to never be found

oh this is what we need
a line in the sand
I would cross to here
before the tide comes in

and you should be less rude
you don't know what it might do for you
I'd be less rude to you

Took my bag underneath the overpass
Woke up to bend and now have broken all we have
Nothing's worse than realizing who you've hurt
I didn't bend and now we eat the consequence

Over the edge I can't stop myself
Off the ledge throwing punches
Over the edge I can't steer myself

I am not myself I am
A broken boxer stuffed with glass and sand
This is now how health should feel
Songs sung from the lungs of the elderly

I'm dead now, check my chest and you'll see
The light has been mined from me, burned for the heat
Oh I'm dead now can you hear the relief

It was dawn and the kitchen light was still on
I stepped in, found the suicide asleep on the floor
An open mouth screams and makes no sound
Apart from the ring of the tinnitus of silence
You had your ear to the ground
White noise
I don't know if there's breathing or not
Butterflied arms tell me that this one has flown

December’s traditions
Suck the last of summer from our cheeks
Draw the curtains, strip the trees
In so-called living rooms
Scottish pastimes come to roost
Love’s labour stains a linen sheet
The ghostly body

I need to find somebody who can tear me away
From the car crying babies and switchblade days
The bark of the unemployment hounds
And the thought of the thick, white skull on the ground
I won't die in the bony arms of the state
To be laid to rest in the wake of the faded town

And if the raincoats come to steal my home

good night
it's stroke time
let's get paralyzed down both sides
snake hips, red city kiss
and your black eyes roll back
midnight organ fight
yours gives in to mine
it's all right

So you just stepped out
of the front of my house
and I'll never see you again.
I closed my eyes for a second
and when they opened
you weren't there.
And the door shut shut
I was vacuum packed,

The booze in my blood runs fast and loud
And my brain shouts down to my mouth say whatever I think
Say it at him

And as the dam bursts open and you're drowned out boy
Better go outside, sit in your boat and wait
'til you get washed away

An itch
My eye twitched like a memory of forgotten bars(?)
One of those cities
One of those nights
Everyone's darling
Everyone's sweetheart
Just this drink to hold my hand
One glass of anything

[Verse 1]
I'm in the arch of the church
Between her thumb and her forefinger
I'm a worshipper
A zealot king, cursed, a devotee
Of the heady golden dance she does
She's an uncut drug
Find the vein and the pulse

Good arms versus bad arms will win hands down, down
They are built to hold and fit, look how far they go around
You don't need these now that you've found another pair
And the difference is astounding, I should expect, except

Leave the rest at arm's length
Keep your naked flesh under your favorite dress
Leave the rest at arm's length

Good arms Vs bad arms
Will win hands down, down
They are built to hold and fit
Look how far they go around

You don't need these now that
You've found another pair
And the difference is astounding

Jesus is just a Spanish boy's name
How come one man got so much fame?
To enemy, it's pointless to anybody
That doesn't have faith
Give me the cloth and I'll wipe my face

When it's all gone
Something carries on

I left house without a fucking clue
And left New York city, girl, without you
But the sun does shine in this place some days
And even when there’s cloud there isn’t always rain

I’ll stow away my grays in a padlocked case
And in a padlocked room
Only to be released when I sing all the songs

Fall prey to the blizzard head
Wrapped my hand around the glass again
We all thought that I might change as I got older
Fell down and nothing bled
Wrapped in cotton alcohol again
To the hilt I hear from the prick upon my shoulder
Free pour the fruitless thoughts
It's far too late to talk so much but

Time passes
I accept the blame
And I accept that you might never care to see me again
At least we can shake off some shame
Still I quiver like a dying leaf in a violent wind
I don’t wish to be excused for this
My disguise and my excuses, they have worn so thin
May I ask, and answer honestly

It's Christmas so we'll stop
It's on with the lights to warm the dark
It can cloak elsewhere
As the rot stops for today
Let the rot stop just for one day
Only good red eyes, red suits, and faces will radiate
And the cold will hide its face
Now the cold is turned away

My hole, I'll get my hole, I'll get my hole
Get my hole, get my hole and I'll find out more.
It's a choo-choo train, a rocket launch
If we have a hormone race
i'm bound to finish first.

Can you see in the dark?
Can you see the look on your face?

I cursed in church again, and the hand-claps all fell quiet
I watched the statue of you cry
The candle is blown, so we start the black march home
Through a stale and silent night

There's a funeral in your eyes and a drunk priest at your side
Staggering sermons never wash
There's no reproach, from the lit touch paper booth

I was mothered like an orchid tethered to eternal sights
I hurried home in orbit close to where I know I'm fine
No edge of the seat, no arms ever broken, you see

I waited for the crash to come
Too many days with too little to do
I waited but nothing came at all
So many days spent in empty rooms

Music now, music now.

Music now is quite amazing
Musicians unite against the
Enemy writing is a job, making someone look dumb is not.
So if this song falls on deaf ears, I'll lip sync it so you can hear.
I can hum for days and weeks and years
I won't shed, nor will I sleep.

i'm working on my backwards walk
walking with no shoes or socks
and the time rewinds to the end of may
i wish we'd never met then met today

i'm working on my faults and cracks
filling in the blanks and gaps
and when i write them out they don't make sense

My brother Tom,
He is a green beret,
And he's fighting on,
For the good old USA,
But now he might go,
And we're not so gung-ho,
Anymore.

Shut down the gospel singers and
Turn up the old heartbreakers
I’m dying to tell you that I’m dying here
Throw up the sickly joy and I’ll
Swallow the sweet self-loathing I’m
Just dying to be unhappy again

Oh where love won’t grow

Well this is easier now
I found all the pieces I lost in the flood
And it wasn't that much
And though it's easier now
I will always remember the night that I almost drowned
All alone in a house

And the love that I lost

This is a story and you're not in it, uh, huh
Fuckin' pages torn out
Here is a bedroom that you've never been in and
Here is your shovel, there's the ground

Look, two lovers covered in covers, uh, huh
I can put us to bed tonight
I am bruised but she is dressing my wounds and

I'll turn off the TV
It's killing us who never speak
There's a radio in the corner
It's dying to make a scene
So give me soft, soft static
With a human voice underneath
And we can both get old fashioned
Put the brakes on these fast, fast wheels

Poke at my Iris, why can't I cry about this?
Maybe there is something that you know that I don't?
We adopt a brand new language
Communicate through pursed lips
And you try not to put on any sexy clothes or graces

I might never catch a mouse and present it in my mouth
To make you feel you're with someone

I speculate the quiet nights, how and where your body lies
Who owns the knee that clicks into the jigsaw piece that I once knew
And I could break the silence but I fear I’ve held you back enough
The space exists so time can tell, but so much space becomes a cell

It’s been so long since I heard you speak
One last click and a long, long bleep
Then radio silence, radio silence

Come gather in my lungs Scottish wind
Belt out your blackest poems
As the sea around you sings
When that drone takes to the air
A single note to raise my hair
Carry songs beyond my lungs
Cold Scottish wind

"Set You Free"

When I hold you baby
And your heart beats close to me
I wanna stay in your arms forever
Oh, your love can set you free

When i wake each morning

I've been digging that hole tonight
On my knees beneath the moon
All I need is a place to lie
Guess a grave will have to do

Won't you give me two minutes please?
Just let me cover my eyes
All the hammer and scrape has been chipping away

Me and Snake talk about you
Every day
I can't wait to see your face
And he tells me he feels the same

We lie awake
We're tired but we can't get to sleep
I'm tired 'cause I've scraped through the day

We are ruled by a governing frost
It melts beneath alcohol briefly and then bites back
Breathe on panes of glass
A circle apears before freezing again, aha
And it's taking it's time
Decree by reluctant
Decree in night by night

My good big deeds I'd say are more like plans than concrete
By day we'll colonize and by night we'll bring peace
Keep all your hopes to compile a crooner's woes
Work out how to, how to complete these
You should peel those eyes 'cause it's important
That they see my hopeful smile

And then you stop our fear

We salute at the threshold of the North Sea in my mind
And the nautical board-man that drove me here to face the tide and swim.

I swim. Oh, swim.

Dip the toe in the ocean. Oh how it hardens and it numbs.
And the rest of me is a burgeoned man, built to collapse into crumbs.
And if I hadn't come down to the coast to disappear

What's the blues, when you've got the greys?
I think I've given up, my body's given in,
in a building, i lie still, and then i turn back over again
in a building that has heating
and sweat sweat sweat sweat dried-on stains
I'm sick of feeling sick and not throwing up
and you sit in my stomach and you seem to be stuck
and it won't work its way through my guts and just go away

Can you hear the road from this place?
can you hear footsteps? voices?
can you see the blood on my sleeve?
i have fallen in the forest.
did you hear me?

in the loneliness?
oh, the loneliness

A cripple walks amongst you, all you tired human beings
He's got all the things a cripple has: Not working arms and legs.
And vital parts fall from his system and dissolve in a skopitish rain
But vitally he doesn't miss them: He is too fucked up to care

Well is that you, in front of me, coming back for even more as I'll be the same
Well, you must be a masochist, to live among a leper, on his last leg, on his last leg

I went looking for a song for you
Something soft and patient to reflect its muse
I took a walk will all my brightest thoughts
But the weather soon turned and they all ran off
Took to the ocean, in a boat this time
Only an idiot would swim through the shit I write
How can I talk of light and warmth?
I’ve got a voice like a gutter in a toxic storm

Do the twist in the twisting outfit
The loose tie with, the loose limp wrists
Lift your dress enough to show me those shins
Let your hair stick to your forehead

Did you blush then when our hips touched?
I can't tell, you're already red
Am i right? you give me the signs

The crumpled ocean with no boat trip
The dark waters stole my clothing
The shape stirs beneath me
A pulse pounds along blood streams
First bite marks, the beginning of
the clotheless wrestle,
the clotheless animal

Well here's the evidence of human existence
Displaying men by nets, two damn boxes (?)
And I cannot find the name for them
They hardly show that I have lived

And the dust, it settles on these things

Displays my age again

Daybreak comes with a devil's hum
A carcass starts to breathe
And wakes one more time to try and find
A place to count its teeth
And scrub the cuts from yesterday's hot scuffle on the streets

Show me the door, I need somewhere to go

Far from the electric floor
Removed from the red meat market
I look for a fire door
An escape from the drums and barking
Bereft of all social charms
Struck dumb by the hand of fear
I fall into the corner’s arms
The same way that I’ve done for years

My cry for a fist-full of sand breathes silence
Hold me, if only I can see land,
the world just blinks

Lead me, I'm stupid from a lesson learned, you've learned nothing
You told me to get lost to find myself
First it bleeds then it stops, I feel like I've been filling up
Why change if you can't be bad, ahhhh, ahhhhah, yes I would

My cry for a fistful of sand
Breeds silence

Hold me, i'm folding, I can't see land
The world just blinks

Lead me, I'm stupid from a lesson learned
You've learned nothing
