lyrics

Tvoje srce obleži globoko
pod razvalinami razbitega telesa.

In misliš, da se smeješ.
Ampak to je jok, ki rjove
skoz tvoje preluknjano grlo.
In misliš, da jokaš.
Ampak smeh razteguje s sadističnimi prsti
kožo na tvojih licih.
Smeh valja rečno kamenje
po tvojih ustih.
Potem mečeš v zrak pisane kroglice
svojih besed.
Loviš jih z usti
in jih z naslado požiraš.

Ker ne moreš nikoli pasti.
Nikoli do dna.

Potem pride potepen pes
in loka deževnico
iz tvoje odprte lobanje.
Živahne miši obglodajo tvoja ušesa.
Tvoje ustnice.
Podgane spletejo gnezdo
v tvojih prsih.

Potem se veselo zasmejejo
tvoji goli zobje.

Vstaneš bel, čist in brezčuten.
Stopiš na prag novega dne.
Sonce nastavi rog na tvoja usta.
Vroš medeninast rog.

Nikoli nisi padel.

Faith

Your heart comes to rest
deep under the ruins of your decrepit body.

And you think you are laughing.
But that is a sob, roaring
through your punctured throat.
And you think, that you are sobbing.
But laughter's sadistic fingers
stretch the skin on your cheeks.
Laughter rolls pebbles
around your mouth.
Then you toss into the air the colored beads
of your words.
Catch them with your mouth
and swallow them voluptuously.

For you can never fall.
Not to the bottom.

Then comes a stray dog
and laps the rainwater
from your open skull.
Lively mice gnaw your ears.
Your lips.
Rats weave a nest
in your chest.

Then you laugh gaily
with your naked teeth.

You stand up pure and senseless.
You stand on the threshold of a new day.
The sun puts a bugle to your lips.
A hot brass bugle.

You have never fallen.
