Текст John Darnielle of Mountain Goats, Extra Glenns — Sure

et the sails catch the wind
let them grow fat and full
set out the trawl
to catch the animals that look like aliens
the wooden floorboards let out a full and satisfying sound
when you rap your fist against them
let the sun become hollow
let the heat from it wash down madly
and let me have
a minute of your time
stop the blood from rushing through
its usual motions
let the rudder lie still
let the water eat through it
let its colour darken as the day grows older
let the light break on the water
like a bottle on the sidewalk
let it break against the edges of all everything
let me have
a minute of your time
watch the current switch direction
watch the lines there in the centre
twist and turn
look back toward the shore
where it was a while ago
you know, i can’t see it either, can you
give me that much at least
but it’s far beyond our reach
but it has disappeared from view
and let me have
a minute of your time
