Bentron Autobot & Jack Diddly - Tales from the World on Our Backs [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Bentron Autobot]
He had the world on his back
No one helped him lift the burden
To escape, he chose to drink
Until he acted like a different person
He's sick of hurtin'
But pain gives him the things to say
The lonesome turtle
All the other fish just swim away
He sits on trains watchin' the rain
Carried by the wind
And scribbles rhymes, he doesn't mind
It gives him time to think
What lies within
Concentratin' on his past regrets
Everything he says is based on tales
That his heart collects

[Verse 2: Jack Diddly]
He's moving slowly
You can see the world is heavy on his back
Nobody lets him relax
It's so depressing and sad
He's developing his tendencies
I bet that he's smashed
You shouldn't meddle with that
He keeps peddling back
The world is heavy
He feels the weight, feels the hate
He'd like to build a place of happiness
And chill for days
But that's not happenin'
He banners it, not managing
He's carried things too heavy
Now he's backin' down and panickin'

[Hook x5: Bentron Autobot]
I can't take the weight
I weren't born for this
I've got a broke back, shell cracked
Wings are clipped
If there's another ten years
That I wouldn't miss
It would be better than feeling like
A shot glass ready to tip
