Phantom Limb

James Mercer

Testi Traduzione

Frozen into coats
White girls of the north
Filed past one, five and one
They are the fabled lambs
A Sunday ham
The ancient snow

And they could float above the grass
In circles if they tried
A latent power I'm known to hide
To keep some hope alive
That a girl like I could ever try
Could ever try

So we just skirt the hallway signs
A phantom and a fly
Follow the lines and wonder why
There's no connection
And weakened falling eyes
In cheap shots from the tribe
And we're off to Nemarca' porch again

Another afternoon
Of the goat-head tunes and pilfered booze
We wander through her Momma's house
The milk from the window lights
Family portrait, circa '95

This is that foreign land
With the sprayed-on tans
And it all feels fine
Be it silk or slime

So, when they tap our Monday heads
Two zombies walk in our stead
This town seems hardly worth our time
And we'll no longer memorize or rhyme
Too far along in our crime
Stepping over what now towers to the sky
With no connection

So, when they tap our Sunday heads
Two zombie walk in our stead
This town seems hardly worth the time
And we'll no longer memorize or rhyme
Too far along in our crime
Stepping over what now towers to the sky
With no connection

Frozen into coats
Congelate nei cappotti
White girls of the north
Ragazze bianche del nord
Filed past one, five and one
Sfilano una, cinque e una
They are the fabled lambs
Sono gli agnelli favolosi
A Sunday ham
Un prosciutto domenicale
The ancient snow
L'antica neve
And they could float above the grass
E potrebbero fluttuare sopra l'erba
In circles if they tried
In cerchi se provassero
A latent power I'm known to hide
Un potere latente che sono noto per nascondere
To keep some hope alive
Per mantenere viva una speranza
That a girl like I could ever try
Che una ragazza come me potrebbe mai provare
Could ever try
Potrebbe mai provare
So we just skirt the hallway signs
Quindi evitiamo solo i segnali del corridoio
A phantom and a fly
Un fantasma e una mosca
Follow the lines and wonder why
Seguiamo le linee e ci chiediamo perché
There's no connection
Non c'è connessione
And weakened falling eyes
E occhi cadenti indeboliti
In cheap shots from the tribe
In colpi bassi dalla tribù
And we're off to Nemarca' porch again
E siamo di nuovo sulla veranda di Nemarca
Another afternoon
Un altro pomeriggio
Of the goat-head tunes and pilfered booze
Di melodie di capre e alcol rubato

Il latte dalle luci della finestra
Family portrait, circa '95
Ritratto di famiglia, circa '95
This is that foreign land

Sia seta o melma
So, when they tap our Monday heads
Quindi, quando battono le nostre teste del lunedì
Two zombies walk in our stead

This town seems hardly worth our time
Questa città sembra a malapena valere il nostro tempo
And we'll no longer memorize or rhyme
E non memorizzeremo più o faremo rime
Too far along in our crime
Troppo avanti nel nostro crimine
Stepping over what now towers to the sky
Scavalcare ciò che ora si innalza al cielo
With no connection
Senza connessione
