Текст David Duchovny — Roman Coin

Goddamn, here’s another gate
It’s hard for me to read Saint Peter’s face
I wait on judgement or rebirth
Stripped of all that life brought my way

Still, the weight of you
On my mind
Brings me back to Earth

Like a Roman coin in my pocket
Your love weighs me down from above
Like a lock of your hair in a locket
Priceless and worthless, my love

Render unto Caesar what is his
Render unto Mammon and show this
This half-forgotten portrait and day
So render unto memory and fate

Take these coins
From my eyes
Heaven cannot wait

Like a Roman coin in my pocket
Your love weighs me down from above
Like a lock of your hair in a locket
Priceless and worthless, my love

This is what it all amounts to
All the time that I spent with you
A foreign book written in dead letters
By a hand we can’t remember
Here I stand at the fountain
Talisman was moved by many
Hands I can’t redeem what we share
Deliver us to water as a prayer

Like a Roman coin in my pocket
Your love like a Roman coin weighs me down from above
Like a lock of your hair in a locket
Priceless and worthless, my love
Priceless and worthless, my love
Priceless and worthless, my love
