Michal Hrabánek: A swan on golden lake

Písňový text.


Like a swan on golden lake

that immediately dies

with every breath that you take,

with all those unspoken lies.

Like a swan on golden lake

that was never good enough

with all mistakes that it makes,

tryna express its true love.

Like a swan on golden lake

that is floating on its own,

that is living in an ache

and it's not the one you've known.

Like a swan on golden lake

that ran out of all its pride,

that has no more dreams to break,

cause its life's now just a fight.

Like a swan on golden lake

that was accidentally blind,

that now knows its friends as fake

and left all its luck behind.

Like a swan on golden lake,

invisible like a ghost,

that's now surrounded by snakes,

by the ones it loved the most.

Like a swan on golden lake

that's apparently a freak,

that survived every earthquake,

but it seems it's still too weak.

Like a swan on golden lake

that just wants its life before,

that is sleeping wide awake,

if you'd come back – just for sure.
