Lyrics in English:

Black Steel Cans

Time is breathing on every thing
with a clouds of chlorine
Watching us through a hole of a toilet
Stuffing things with a body fat filling
Time’s not gonna replace you a hand
It’s not gonna restore you a spine
If you don’t let it cripple you out
Time is healing

I will have to forget to survive
Not to kill anyone
I’m forgetting I’m stayin alive

Black cans twanging the black city streets
They deliver black milk to the kids
Big enough to contain all of us
Five person per glass
People looking like coffins on wheels
Chalk some interesting doors with a crosses
They have questions to ask
So get ready
If you live behind interesting door
They are at your floor
Already

I will have to forget to survive
Not to kill anyone
I’m forgetting I’m stayin alive

I need hundreds of millions of tons
Truckfuls of garbage and stones
Need to muffle this voice of a pain
That drives me insane

I am breathing with silicone lungs
Alveoli become fiberglass
Spiky branches inside of my head
And a window with burgundy blinds

I will have to forget to survive
Not to kill anyone
I’m forgetting I’m stayin alive
Only those who were never alive
Will survive
At the gates of detention prisons
They are getting in twos
Not afraid of a knife wounds
They can easily turn into spirits
With their bags full of cigarettes and linens
Only those will be breathers
Bus-stop kissers
Life givers
I let go of the horror
This fear of a swine
From the deep of my spine
From the darkest of houses
Which is no longer mine
And I have to forget to stop suffering
Not sure if I can make it happen
