Текст и перевод песни Prozak Soup - Escriure

Escriure

T'alces et maquilles et pentines,
Et prens les vitamines.
No saps cap on camines.
Leche, calcio, desnatada, bajo en grasa,
Omega 3.

Vaig somniar un combat.
Tu i jo erem indis.
L'alarma va interrompre un somni just
I he aprés a disparar,
Apuntant bé l'enemic s'amaga
A la llum de cada flama que il·lumina la batalla.

I de sobte el paper es mulla i no pots escriure
Sols queda riure de tu mateix
Volies guanyar la batalla i ho vas perdre tot en la escurabutxaques.

Escriure és l'única defensa
Quan tu em fas el buit.
La pastilla de nit i de dia
Quan tot penja d'un fil.

Mentrestant estàs amb actitud derrotista
I els pensaments els tens tancats.
I estàs sol i amargat et volen enganyar.
Escriure és un arma per guanyar-los en combat.

Cridaves, pero ningú et sentia
Es feiens els sords, perdia sentit la vida
Somiava tocar amb els dits el cel
I tastar el caliu etern que brolla
De la teua mirada fonda
De les nostres vides enceses.
Ni plors, ni presses, ni llums enceses.
Alçar-se i caure a passes cegues.

T'alces et maquilles et pentines,
Et prens les vitamines.
No saps cap on camines.
Leche, calcio, desnatada, bajo en grasa,
Omega 3.

Però ara ja no és com abans,
La teua filla és pobra i camina cap a l'escola sense entrepà
I el teu cosí s'ha suicidat el dia del judici.
Encendràs la tele, miraràs el futbol, el teu equip marca i tu somrius.
A tu la vida et marca gols, els bons a la presó i els dolents al parlament.

Assegut en el pont, t'ho penses de nou.
La gota que desborda el got.

Escriure és l'única defensa
Quan tu em fas el buit.
La pastilla de nit i de dia
Quan tot penja d'un fil.
Aneu buscant on amagar-se,
Amb mi en vint-i-cinc.

Writing

You get up, put on makeup, and comb your hair,
And take your vitamins.
You don't know where you're going.
Milk, calcium, skimmed, low-fat,
Omega 3.

I dreamed of a fight.
You and I were Indians.
The alarm interrupted a dream just
And I learned to shoot,
Aiming well, the enemy hides
In the light of every flame that illuminates the battle.

And suddenly the paper gets wet and you can't write
You can only laugh at yourself
You wanted to win the battle and lost everything in the scuffle.

Writing is the only defense
When you ignore me.
The pill night and day
When everything hangs by a thread.

Meanwhile, you have a defeatist attitude
And you keep your thoughts locked up.
And you're alone and bitter, they want to deceive you.
Writing is a weapon to defeat them in battle.

You screamed, but nobody heard you
They pretended to be deaf, life lost its meaning
I dreamed of touching the sky with my fingers
And taste the eternal warmth that flows
From your deep gaze
From our lives lit up.
No tears, no haste, no lights on.
To rise and fall in blind steps.

You get up, put on makeup, and comb your hair,
You take your vitamins.
You don't know where you're going.
Milk, calcium, skimmed, low-fat,
Omega 3.

But it's not like it used to be,
Your daughter is poor and walks to school without a sandwich
And your cousin committed suicide on Judgment Day.
You'll turn on the TV, watch football, your team scores and you smile.
Life scores goals for you, the good ones in prison and the bad ones in parliament.

Sitting on the bridge, you think about it again.
The straw that broke the camel's back.

Writing is the only defense
When you ignore me.
The pill night and day
When everything hangs by a thread.
Go looking for somewhere to hide,
With me in twenty-five.
