Glue

They're making a documentary1here about Shoko2that is more like a thriller
light the spotlight as the moon light is not enough for revolutions
the album cover is already ready, we will release at Passover
only during which year is not yet known, these are the years of the mask
 
Glue will not attach us one to the other because the quarrel continues on
now a two story apartment costs more like an advanced space ship
they filmed and photographed this period, between summer to autumn
you were my girl of the month during the time that i performed like an experienced madman
 
Evening descends on the world
our lives will not be what they were once
they closed the city of the lost films
love you in the end from among all the lonely people
on the shattered road i wrote you a song of hope
about the famous dust that love leaves behind
someone burst out from the homes saying:
"Tomorrow we will return to dance close again, it will be OK!"
 
Friends are performing at street lights because they have run out of money
believers are sailing on flying ships to Uman3
you ask me to kiss you through the party masks
with the taste of cola shoko doko and the wanderings of time
 
Evening descends on the world....
 
  • 1. doko
  • 2. chocolate milk
  • 3. a city in Ukraine that is famous for being the burial place of Rabbi Nachman. Many religious jews travel to his grave to pray and ask for divine assistance.

Good translation. Great job!
May I ask you to remove «The» before Ukraine, please?
