lyrics

JUNE

A foreign body unto himself
He cannot stand himself inside him
He commits atrocities on himself.

He lets injustice take its course on him.
He feels that were he doing drugs
A fit would help.

If he had God above,
He might take comfort in prayer.
There’s waste land all around.

So he sinks a blade into his body,
To see how that will affect the soul inside of him.
How deep are you, if you are there?

June is the cruellest month.

Perhaps if he had faith
He would have sung his praises to the Lord
For such a stairway to him.

But there is no God,
The waste land will never change.
He would believe, but there is nothing to believe in.

Perhaps he wouldn’t be afraid of himself
In the arms of another human being,
But he is shy of people.

He is shy of his furious hatred
Of his own nostalgia and hunger
And all the other faces in the waste land.

June is the cruellest month.

***

Sám sobě cizím tělesem,
sám sebe v sobě nesnese,
na sobě zvěrstvo páchá.

Na sobě průchod zvůli dá.
Cítí, že kdyby droby bral,
pomohla by mu dávka.

Kdyby měl Boha nad sebou,
snad by si ulevil modlitbou.
Kolem je jenom pustina.

Tak vrazí ostří do těla,
co to s duší v něm udělá?
Jak hluboko jsi, jsi-li tam?

Červen je nejkrutější.

Možná, že kdyby víru měl,
Bohu by slova díků pěl
za tyhle schody k němu.

Jenomže žádný Bůh není,
pustinu nic nepromění.
Věřil by, nemá však čemu.

V náruči jiného člověka
snad by se sebe sám nelekal,
před lidmi se ale stydí

za to, že jak svůj stesk i hlad,
ostatní tváře v pustinách
zuřivě nenávidí.

Červen je nejkrutější.

about

Recordings On the Road Czech Republic

Collective publishing project of a few kindred musicians, flowing outside (on periphery or in underground) the Czech music happening and mostly devoted themselves to alternative rock or avantgarde music. Stylistically diverse is united by a similar attitude to music perceived not as a medium, but as the way, autonomous and eminently participating on our lives, on our road. ... more
