The Water (оригинал Hurts)
Вода (перевод Мария Василек из Москвы)
Innocent, they swim
I tell them ‘no’
They just dive right in
But do they know?
It’s a long way down
When you’re alone
And there’s no air or sound
Down below the surface
There’s something in the water
I do not feel safe
It always feels like torture
To be this close
I wish that I was stronger
I’d separate the waves
Not just let the water
Take me away
There was a time I’d dip my feet
And it would roll off my skin
Now every time I get close to the edge
I’m scared of falling in
‘Cause I don’t want to be stranded again
On my own
When the tide comes in
And pulls me below the surface
There’s something in the water
I do not feel safe
It always feel like torture
To be this close
I wish that I was stronger
I’d separate the waves
Not just let the water take me away
Невинные, они плывут,
Я говорю им: “Нет”,
Они просто ныряют в глубину.
Но знают ли они?
Это длинный путь вниз,
Когда ты одинок
И там нет ни воздуха, ни звука
Под поверхностью воды.
В воде есть что-то необычное,
Из-за чего я не чувствую себя спокойно.
И всегда это похоже на пытку,
К которой ты так близко.
Я хотел бы стать сильнее
Я бы разогнал волны,
И просто не позволил бы воде
Забрать меня.
Раньше я бы зашел в воду по щиколотку
И вода омыла бы мою кожу,
А сейчас всякий раз, когда я близко к краю воды
Я опасаюсь упасть туда.
Потому что я не хочу оказаться на мели опять
Наедине с самим собой,
И когда придет прилив,
Он заберет меня под воду.
В воде есть что-то необычное,
Из-за чего я не чувствую себя спокойно.
И всегда это похоже на пытку,
К которой ты так близко.
Я хотел бы стать сильнее
Я бы разогнал волны,
И просто не позволил бы воде забрать меня.

Innocent, they swim
I tell them, “No,”
They just dive deep.
But do they know?
It's a long way down
When you are alone
And there is no air, no sound
Under the surface of the water.
There is something unusual in the water
Because of what I do not feel calm.
And it's always like torture
To which you are so close.
I would like to become stronger
I would break the waves
And just wouldn't let the water
Take me.
I used to go ankle-deep in water
And water would wash my skin
And now whenever I'm close to the edge of the water
I fear falling there.
Because I don't want to be aground again
Alone with myself
And when the tide comes
He will take me under water.
There is something unusual in the water
Because of what I do not feel calm.
And it's always like torture
To which you are so close.
I would like to become stronger
I would break the waves
And just wouldn't let the water take me
