Deca - Sailboats and Trains [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro: Voice Samples]
My childhood was perfect
Paradise lost
Now, one is driven forward into the future by the storm
Sailing out of paradise

[Verse 1]
My father was a traveling performer with
A love circus of excessive unfortunates
Fortune tellers, dope fiends, and contortionists
That left me in Babylon where I was forced to live
On table scraps at the orphanage
I ran in the house and God closed the doors and hid
Confessed sins, evangelists say the Lord forgives
Seems right
You created me in your image
Kick, scream, blaspheme
Last seen grappling
With strange beings in bad dreams
That grow scales and bat wings
Sleep walker, sweep Eloise off her feet, sweet talk her
But keep your eyes peeled for thought police
Slow creeping down forgotten
Got the streets watching
He's obsolete like floppy disks and beat-boxing
I believe still, I never stopped believing
I could see him even when the mushrooms were out of season
So we could let the swine roast on the spit
That don't believe in anything they can't poke with a stick
They don't know about the monsters that patrol the abyss
They don't know that Mr. One Zero's dope as it gets
All your product's stepped on and your jewelry's fake
You got bass, I got uncut Peruvian flake
One taste test will take you to the next level
And apex to cloud ten without having to spend several pay checks

[Hook]
Today's blessed
I'm feeling great
Like I could walk barefoot through a field of snakes
You treat my love like a five dollar milkshake
And I'm a snap and knock the taste out your grill cake
Blau
I put my mean face on
I feel safe now
Walk center stage and take a bow
Walk through a field of snakes
Bruise every head
Shake the foundation
Wake up the dead

[Verse 2]
I recall a time when all the stars aligned
Symbols on the walls and shrines
Of a solemn altered mind
I was younger then
Young and unafraid, unfazed
Unaware of pitfalls that you face when you come of age
With grandiose, lofty ideals and diatribes
They take God out your chest and place him in the sky
Preach uniformity, perpetuate lies
But can't obstruct what I see with my mind's eye
I spy Cane and Abel perched on a man's shoulders
With birds of paradise and ravens overhead
He fragments into infinite heavens and hells
Pulling fish out the open ocean with a golden thread
I comb the depths for pearls every night when I go to bed
And wake up empty handed sometimes, but know the ledge
We've been sewn falsehoods
We've been misled
Shake the foundation
Wake up the dead

(uhuh)

[Hook]
Today's blessed
I'm feeling great
Like I could walk barefoot through a field of snakes
You treat my love like a five dollar milkshake
And I'm a snap and knock the taste out your grill cake
Blau
I put my mean face on
I feel safe now
Walk center stage and take a bow
Walk through a field of snakes
Bruise every head
Shake the foundation
Wake up

[Outro: Voice Sample]
In what seems like the dead of winter
Beneath the protecting mantle of ice
Forces from far away galaxies
And from deep in the Earth
Are joined in the creation of new life
