Letra 'Family Portrait' de 'Radical Face' traducida al español

So we start with my father as a boy
Barely spoke a word of english
Fell in love from a distance
He watched her working from the back fence

He learned some words
And some clever turns of phrase
From his father's book of poets
She wasn't taken in that instant
But grew impressed with his persistence

They met each other out by moonlight
Made love in the nearby woods
Then the folks became suspicious
When her cycle broken so young

They stole away without their goodbyes
Got married in a foreign town
Made their way as best as they could
Found jobs and settled down

And then time moved on

I was born in a river of blood
On sheets from the wedding day
The room was dark and the stench was thick
My father couldn't stand the smell of it

Mama died in the night cos the nearest
Doctor couldn't stem the blood loss
Father cried out on the back porch
My sister held me at the neighbor's house

Oh, my, there was a storm then
It was a flood of a different kind
Father's eyes were often vacant
But his hands were rarely quiet
Sister learned to take her hits well
Both from life and the physical kind
But I was never one to lie down
Despite who picked the fight

So we designed our hells

Father turned into a drinker
A dark bastard with a wooden heart
Sister learned to be a mother
Before she'd ever played another part
And I became a little terror
I lashed out at whatever's around
Took some time before I settled
And found a mind that was somewhat sound

And as it always does
Time rushed on

Six years later father died in the very same bedroom
Many said it was the grief that did it
I have to say it's cos he hung himself
To be honest neither sister or myself
Ever much regret his passin'
But I admit it was a nice thing
To always know that we could feed ourselves

Así que empezamos con mi padre cuando era niño
Apenas hablaba una palabra de Inglés
Se enamoró de una distancia
La vio trabajando desde la cerca de atrás

Él aprendió algunas palabras
Y algunos giros inteligentes de la frase
Del libro de su padre de los poetas
Ella no fue tomada en ese instante
Pero creció impresionado con su persistencia

Se conocieron el uno al otro por la luna
Amor Hecho en los bosques cercanos
Entonces la gente se convirtieron en sospechosas
Cuando su ciclo roto tan joven

Ellos robaron sin sus adioses
Nos casamos en una ciudad extranjera
A las gradas de la mejor manera que pudieron
Encontrado puestos de trabajo y se estableció

Y entonces el tiempo se trasladó

Nací en un río de sangre
En las hojas del día de la boda
La habitación estaba a oscuras y el hedor era gruesa
Mi padre no podía soportar el olor de ella

Mamá murió en la noche porque el más cercano
El doctor no pudo detener la pérdida de sangre
Padre gritó en el porche trasero
Mi hermana me llevó a cabo en la casa del vecino

Oh, mi, hubo una tormenta y luego
Era una inundación de un tipo diferente
Los ojos de padre a menudo eran vacantes
Pero sus manos estaban raramente tranquila
Hermana aprendió a tomar bien sus éxitos
