Borstal — текст песни (Steel Pole Bath Tub)

I couldn`t have done a better job
of falling apart, but that`s alright
I fell with the grace of dirt
the trees bent red around me and
I should write the folks more ofter
than I do, but I don`t
and like a bottle spun loose on
the concrete I crawl.
I spin my bottle down the tracks.
It splits in half, exactly.
I fall down on the pavement.
The trees bend down around me.
I take the subway back downtown,
collect the papers we drew on,
address the envelope to Mom.
