Steven Wilson все тексты (слова) песен, переводы, видео, клипы

Причина никогда не приходит к виновным.
Сначала вещи значат ничто, после - все.
Предназначение ничего не пророчит и лишь скрывает истину
От увлекшихся своей верой, игнорируя все доказательства.

Велосипед
Садовая изгородь
Зов матери

Cut ribbon from your hair
Round your neck
It's only... it's only nature's way
Cause and effect
Always select

Collapse the light into the earth
Uncoil, reset the universe

Oh once in a while
I learn how to smile
Horses shadows and rain on stone

No god here I'm sure
This must be the cure
For all this carrion and aimless drift

Cold windowpane
A car upturned in the rain
Wait on in vain
Don't try to bear the blame
Deal with the pain
Dust down your wings again

You need to clear away all the jetsam in your brain

Me, I'm a bona fide reptile
The closer I get to the dark
The sharper the suit that I'm wearing, yeah

'Cause it's never ending
No it's never ending
It's always pretending
'Cause it's never ending

Drink the poison down
Drink the poison down

Cold immersion now
Cold immersion now

Arms are closing 'round

Open the car door slow
Don't think that you'll ever know my name
Get all that you deserve in this world

Love more than you can know
Have more than you'll ever need from me
Get all that you deserve in this world

Together we have this love
Even so it's not enough
Bruised and burned we won't lose heart
And just because life gets hard

Writing lying e-mails to our friends back home
Feeling guilty if we sometimes wanna be alone

Hey brother, happy returns
It’s been a while now
I bet you thought that I was dead
But I’m still here, nothing’s changed, nothing's changed

Hey brother, I’d love to tell you
I’ve been busy
But that would be a lie

Rain, come down, and fall forever
Drain, the dirt, into the wasteland
Pray, for sound, to quiet the howling

Feel, no shame, too brave
Feel, afraid, to wait forever

Kneel, to fade, the day’s corrosion

Bricks and mortar and so much more
The piano drifts through an open door
A glass of wine and the twilight fades
Shadows march as the dark invades

Think a witch lives inside the woods
I heard her singing and she plays real good
Crawling into my hiding place

I got an existential crisis
I got millennium blues too late
I got addictions and all the hip vices
I'm a personal earthquake
’Cos I am cliche

I got prescription meds to warm me
I love music but I don't wanna pay

I’m a collector, I collect anything I find
I never throw anything away that’s mine
And I’d collect you too if I was given half a chance
And trap you under the glass and add my autograph
I catalog, I preserve, and I index
And file you into my collectable Rolodex
I keep the rubbish what other people give away
And keep all of the pieces in a metal tray

Holy Mother of the simple one,
When you smile at me you bring me down,
You betray your thoughts.
All your prayers too low.

Now out of debt, you speak in tongues,
And out of bread, your work is done,
And your dream, absolve.

Will you help me gather my thoughts?
Will you help me find the transitions I forgot?
Can you be me for a moment (yeah)
Live inside me
See the world the way it always looks to me

And when you're moving through a photograph
You're faster than most

That's something that you're laughing at me
And I hope you know what it is that you're laughing about
'cause it won't be long now 'til they're reeling you in
The same situation, the same disappointment you bring
So I hope you're happy with the impression you made
Deep in denial, like you planned it this way
But you're lost to me, like dust I have cleared from my eye
Your words have no meaning, so I stare up into the sky

Here we all are born into a struggle
To come so far but end up returning to dust

Oxfam panache and tips his hat
(laces undone)
He has no truck with idle chat
(work to be done)
The songs he learned from scratched LPs

Trust, you know how to take it
Love, you know how to fake it

And I will be there beside you
The camera eye, the drug is just to be near you

Hey, well I can take rejection
Hey, what does it take to get your attention?

Here is the moment
And the coil has been unwound
Here is the moment
Nothing wears me down

Here is the moment
There's no need to pretend
To think about the future

I wanna say out loud
What you don't wanna hear now
Well, too arrogant, am I?
Belligerent, am I?

I move like a fever
Make you a believer
The American idol

In the back of a taxi cab in London town
It's like watching TV with the sound turned down
Cause I can feel it I've got a buzzin' in my head
And I'm on my way

I see the kids deserting ships like shopping malls
On street corners they ignore their girlfriend's calls
Cause they got plans now and tonight they won't be home

Draggin’ a lake
Find the owner of the voice
I zip in the bag
And drove all across the noise

Examine the hairline
His archives in the strands
He turned into something

Drain the lake
Find the owner of the voice
Zip in the bank
And drop off across the noise
Examine the hairline
As archives in the strand
You turn into something
That puts the weakness in my hands

A raven holding to narrow wrist
Pull it tight
Clothes are torn and the body twists
A single light

The worse the struggle the more you fail
Strands fall down
The more you like it the more it hurts

I'm tired of weakness, tired of my feet of clay
I'm tired of days to come, I'm tired of yesterday
And all the worn out things that I ever said
Now it's much too late, the words stay in my head

So the day will begin again
Take comfort from me, it's up to you now
You're still here, and you'll dig in again

When I was 13 I had a sister for 6 months.She arrived one February morning, pale and shell shocked, from past lives I could not imagine. She was 3 years older than me, but in no time we became friends.

We’d listen to her mix tapes; Dead Can Dance, Felt, This Mortal Coil…

She introduced me to her favorite books, gave me clothes, and my first cigarette.

Sometimes we would head down to Blackbirds moor to watch the barges on Grand Union in the twilight.

Somewhere on the highway
With a luminous moon
Swimming after dark and then
Awaken to you

Hold on
Hold onto the minute
And sing it

Have now, have now, pay in another life
Kickstart the future, accept this loan
Fill in the form, you're pre-qualified
You're now the sum of what you own

Buy now, buy now, have a better life
Close out transactions without remorse
Apply for credit, it's your given right

"Una vez un niño estaba enfermo. Su mamá estaba triste y a los pocos días
fueron al hospital y le dijo el doctor que tenía mal el corazón. A los 15
días murió. Su mamá lloraba y lloraba, y gritaba. "Ha muerto mi hijo", le
decía a todo el vecindario para que la consolaran. Y entonces fue con el
doctor y le dijo "Mi hijo ha muerto". El doctor se puso triste aunque no
fuera su hijo y fue una vida infeliz."

Safeguard old shards

I think it's time that i got off the kitchen floor
But is there really any point at all?
Waking up this morning felt the same
Better sleep while life is so mundane

It could have been yesterday that i locked the door
I blocked the windows up so I can't be sure
Now i haven't even got the will to eat

Streets, like Prussian blues
Split the cells in my blood

Black like the outer eye
Adrenaline by love

The glow of a cigarette
Illuminates from above

A fist will make you understand intention
To raise alarm is underhand, so I cut off the phone
I bind you up with tape and catch some TV
It's getting late, the shadows in the street are watching us

Check for fibers in the gaps between the teeth, the floorboards
Check the fingerprints, go through the trash
Maybe I just wanted some attention

Scintilla falling behind
Did you arrive at the place that you came from?
A cultivator of dread
The paranoia took root in your cold heart

Neurotic up with the dawn
Prescription pills to ignore, the map is useless
If you would dare to dissolve

What do I do with all the children's clothes
such tiny things that still smell of them
And the footprints in the hallway
onto my knees scrub them away

And how to be of use make the tea and the soup
All of their favorites throw them away
And all their schoolbooks and the running shoes

Robbers appoint at making you trust,
you live in a lie, the pain in the dust.

God always shouts and you always kick,
Through passionless hours.
Yeah you make me feel sick.

Your secret is taught but the body rejected.

Pullin’ back from the precipice
Feel so small now, stars shine bright above
Don’t know why
Receive a better life for a song
Can’t but try, other leads apply

Lookin’ up at tragic rush on underground
Birds will turn and fly

Discarded love today, and north will soon become
I lost too much today, so myth will soon become
I threw my life away
And for what?
I blew my chances too
I see the bitter truth
I give up

The Holy Drinker and his curse
In constant surfage to unquenchable thirst

And from his stupor the night gives birth
The devil rises from right out of the earth

With shaking hands and blackened heart
The glass his pours, this time it's also the last

Carried away by the river that passes through bulrushes on the sea
Dragged by current to rest on the stakes of the breakwater shaded by trees
Beginnings and endings, love intersecting a rift that will break us apart

Love learned
In turn
Dreams burned

Sing for me
Sing for me
You can come with me
You can live with me
Heal my soul
Make me whole

(the raven sings in a dream)

Are you proud of all your failures?
Are you dragging mother nature down?
You believe you have dominion
So you force your lame opinions on me
And my eggshell mind

Wake it up to see through you
We'll all disappear in the same asylum as before

A man has gone overboard
And the ruling class will ask
Are you up to the task?
But you're not sure

You're finding it all too much
You wave the white flag
So good luck
