Translation of the song Летела жизнь artist Splean

Летела жизнь,

Life was flying,

Мелькали этажи

Floors were flashing

Навстречу тем,

Towards those

Кто превратился в тень.

Who turned into shadows.

Летела так

It was flying

Быстро и нелепо,

So fast and so absurdly,

Горел табак,

Tobacco was burning,

Становился пеплом.

Turning into ash.

И падал вниз,

And it was falling down,

Куда летела жизнь,

Where life was flying,

Или наверх,

Or up,

Куда заносит всех,

The way everybody drifts,

Или вперёд,

Or forward,

Двигаясь по кругу,

Moving in circles,

Или на лёд

Or on the March ice,

Мартовский с испугу,

Out of fear,

Или на взлёт

Or skyward,

Вычертить фигуру

To draw a figure

На небе хмуром.

In the gloomy sky.

Летела жизнь,

Life was flying,

Мелькали этажи,

Floors were flashing.

Менялась власть,

Governments were changing

Напившись крови всласть.

After drinking blood to their hearts' content.

Крутился шар,

The sphere was rotating,

Давая миру шанс.

Giving peace a chance.

Летело всё,

Everything was flying,

Набирая скорость,

Gaining momentum,

Теряя счёт,

Losing count,

Вырывая с корнем,

Rooting out,

Надеясь - всё

Hoping that everything

Повторится скоро,

Would repeat itself

Снова и снова

Again and again.
