Carnation — текст песни (Oasis)

If you gave me a fresh carnation

I would only crush its tender petals

With me youll have no escape

And at the same time therell be nowhere to settle

I trample down all life in my wake

I eat it up and take the cake

I just avert my eyes to the pain

Of someones loss helping my gain



If you gave me a dream for my pocket

Youd be plugging in the wrong socket

With me theres no room for the future

With me theres no room with a view at all



I am out of season all year around

Hear machinery roar to my empty sound

Touch my heart and feel winter

Hold my hand and be doomed forever



If you gave me a fresh carnation

I would only crush its tender petals

With me youll have no escape

And at the same time therell be nowhere to settle

And if youre wondering by now who I am

Look no further than the mirror

Cause I am the greed and fear

And every ounce of hate in you
