Of Monsters and Men - Crystals (Lyric Video)

Il testo

Lost in skies of powdered gold
 Caught in clouds of silver ropes
 Showered by the empty hopes
 As I tumble down, falling fast to the ground

I know I’ll wither so peel away the bark
 Because nothing grows when it is dark
 In spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear
 I see it all so clear

Cover your crystal eyes
 And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
 Cover your crystal eyes
 And let your colours bleed and blend with mine

Making waves in pitch black sand
 Feel the salt dance on my hands
 Raw and charcoal coloured thighs feel so cold
 And my skin feels so paper-thin

I know I’ll wither so peel away the bark
 Because nothing grows when it is dark
 In spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear
 I see it all so clear

Cover your crystal eyes
 And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
 Cover your crystal eyes
 And let your colours bleed and blend with mine

But I’m okay in see-through skin
 I forgive what is within
 Because I’m in this house
 I’m in this home
 All my time

Cover your crystal eyes
 And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
 Cover your crystal eyes
 And let your colours bleed and blend with mine

traduzione

Copri i tuoi occhi di cristallo
 E senti i suoni tremare lungo la schiena
 Copri i tuoi occhi di cristallo
 E lascia che i tuoi colori sanguinino e si fondano con i miei

Facendo le onde nella sabbia nera come la pece
 Sento la danza del sale sulle mie mani
 Crudo (grezzo) e colorato carbone, sento freddo nelle cosce
 E la mia pelle si sente così sottile come la carta

So che appassisco così si stacca la corteccia
 Perché nulla cresce quando è buio
 A dispetto di tutte le mie paure, posso vedere tutto così chiaro
 Vedo tutto così chiaro

Copri i tuoi occhi di cristallo
 E senti i suoni tremare  lungo la schiena
 Copri i tuoi occhi di cristallo
 E lascia che i tuoi colori sanguinino e si fondano con i miei

Ma sto bene nella pelle trasparente
 Perdono quel che è dentro
 Perché io sono in questa casa
 Sono in questa casa
 Tutto il mio tempo

Copri i tuoi occhi di cristallo
 E senti i suoni tremare lungo la schiena
 Copri i tuoi occhi di cristallo
 E lascia che i tuoi colori sanguinino e si fondano con i miei
