«I’ve been cheated and stripped of my perfect retreat»

Una de las joyas del Superabundance, gran disco de Young Knives, salido este año.  Empezando de una manera un poco dark y con una temática miserable, la canción crece hasta convertirse en un himno a la cobardía. Bajenla y escuchenla y solo vean el video como algo anecdótico, ya que la versión de ahí le quita casi un minuto a la original.

Young Knives – Turn Tail

These are my hands
These are brick walls
Men can break down brick walls
These are my hands
These are brick walls
Men can break down brick walls

Where are the spoils?
Where are the treats?
I’ve been worked to the bone
I’ve been worked off my feet
Head in my hands
Hands in the soil
I’ve been cheated and stripped of my perfect retreat

We’re all slaves on this ship
This ship’s sinking
We will not reach the shore
Reach the shore

My back is sore
So I sleep on the floor
With the dust and the leaves
That blew under the door
These are my chores
I must not show the strain

We’re all slaves on this ship
This ship’s sinking
We will not reach the shore
Reach the shore
This ship’s sinking

Turn tail and run
Turn tail and run
I will turn tail and run
I will turn tail and run

Swim to the coast, boat full of ghosts
Jump from the prow, jump from the prow
Swim to the coast, boat full of ghosts
Jump from the prow, jump from the prow

Turn tail and run
I will turn tail and run
Turn tail and run
I will turn tail and run

We’re all slaves on this ship
This ship’s sinking
We will not reach the shore
Reach the shore
This ship’s sinking

Turn tail and run
I will turn tail and run
