Текст CocoRosie – The Sea Is Calm

C’est l’histoire d’un homme
Au coeur de bois
La mer est calme
Sous l’écran de la caméra

The sea is calm through the video camera
Like a dead light bulb
In a bucket of water
Yes, in a bucket of water

The sea is calm through hand made lenses
Like animals in a soundless dream
Like animals in bottles of butter
A miniature sailboat, tin foil and paper
The waves are big and there’s a warm wind

Il est sous le feu des projecteurs
D’un soleil cassé
Il a jetté son corps comme une ancre
Comme un morceau de sucre
Et s’est dissout

He’s in the spotlight of a broken sun
He dropped his body like an anchor
Like a lump of sugar
And he dissolved

On the anniversary of his death
She drew a beautiful picture of a whale
She drew a picture of a whale
She drew a beautiful picture of a whale
She drew a beautiful picture of a whale

Pour l’anniversaire de sa mort…
