Quick As Rainbows
As she walks home tonight
To her house and ignores the stars
She knows there's no-one waiting
Tomorrow isn't clear enough
To give her strength or make her want
To wake and walk in the morning.
And there's hope that I've taken
And there's drugs to make it painless
And men, we're quick as rainbows,
Always rare to keep her thirsty
And I've gone, like she'd always known.
As I walk home tonight,
To my house and ignore the stars,
I know there's someone waiting,
Tomorrow is very clear,
It gives me strength and makes me want
To wake and walk in the morning
But there's hope that I've taken
And there's drugs to make it painless
And men, we're quick as rainbows,
Always rare to keep her thirsty
And I've gone, like she'd always known.
There were times of troubled dreams of hate
I'd take her down to the lake with our love
Watch it swim, we'd watch it drown
Watch our love bob up and down.
And there's hope that I've taken
And there's drugs to make it painless
And men, we're quick as rainbows,
Always rare to keep her thirsty
And I've gone, like she'd always known.
Always corpses at breakfast time.
Rápido Como Arcoíris
Al caminar a casa esta noche
Hacia su hogar y ignorando las estrellas
Sabe que no hay nadie esperando
Mañana no es lo suficientemente clara
Para darle fuerza o hacerla desear
Levantarse y caminar por la mañana
Y hay esperanza que he tomado
Y hay drogas para hacerlo sin dolor
Y los hombres, somos rápidos como arcoíris,
Siempre escasos para mantenerla sedienta
Y me he ido, como ella siempre supo.
Al caminar a casa esta noche,
Hacia mi hogar e ignorando las estrellas,
Sé que hay alguien esperando,
Mañana es muy clara,
Me da fuerza y me hace desear
Levantarme y caminar por la mañana
Pero hay esperanza que he tomado
Y hay drogas para hacerlo sin dolor
Y los hombres, somos rápidos como arcoíris,
Siempre escasos para mantenerla sedienta
Y me he ido, como ella siempre supo.
Hubo momentos de sueños problemáticos de odio
La llevaría al lago con nuestro amor
Verlo nadar, verlo ahogarse
Ver nuestro amor subir y bajar.
Y hay esperanza que he tomado
Y hay drogas para hacerlo sin dolor
Y los hombres, somos rápidos como arcoíris,
Siempre escasos para mantenerla sedienta
Y me he ido, como ella siempre supo.
Siempre cadáveres a la hora del desayuno.
