Dirty Projectors - Zombie Conqueror [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: David Longstreth]
Crazy to feel like this
Up and down, simultaneous
Victory and defeat
One to one, we'll have to wait and see

And now the clouds are gathered
My eyes are bright, my khakis tattered

[Pre-Chorus 1: David Longstreth]
The stakes are raised
The townspeople are anxious and alert
The surface of the reservoir is mirrored and inert
The flag is hanging motionless on the pole outside the court
And in their homes the people look with stares they can't avert

[Chorus: David Longstreth]
Zombie conqueror
We see into the midnight in front of us
Zombie conqueror
We see into the midnight in front of us
My friend, we'll have to free each other more than once
Zombie conqueror
We see into the midnight in front of us
Night, night

[Verse 2: David Longstreth]
I left home at fifteen
I knew no home between
Half a life goes by
Only a picture of the sky

And now the clouds are gathered
My eyes are bright, my khakis tattered

[Pre-Chorus 2: David Longstreth]
The blocking characters all plotting new disloyalty
But sensing their irrelevance, they're frowning and displeased
The car chased through the mini-mall amaryllis on the hood
The race to clear the courthouse has been won and all is good

[Chorus: David Longstreth + Empress Of]
(Zombie conqueror)
(Zombie conqueror)
Zombie conqueror (zombie conqueror)
We see into the midnight in front of us
Zombie conqueror (zombie conqueror)
We see into the midnight in front of us
My friend, we'll have to free each other more than once
Zombie conqueror (zombie conqueror)
We see into the midnight in front of us
Night, night
