About the song: With the participation of Masha Sobko
|
It's snowing outside, a miserable apartment.
|
There is no heating in the house, it is damp in the corners.
|
An old bed, there is a lot of dust under it.
|
No water, no electricity, everything was turned off for debts.
|
A boy, twelve years old, is sitting at the window.
|
She dreams that her mother will come in and say: “Son, hello!
|
How is it at school? |
What did you learn new?
|
Have you read books or have you been somewhere?
|
And then the door opened, the conversation was short:
|
"Son, go buy your mother some vodka!"
|
— Mom, what kind of vodka? |
I love you!
|
- Don't listen, I'll call my father right now!
|
- Look at yourself, what have you become?
|
People are families, have you ever walked with me?
|
All children have a birthday, gifts, cakes, candles,
|
And what do I have? |
At home, only drinking forever.
|
“Ah, you asshole, is life so bad for you?”
|
Dad took the belt and let's beat me.
|
Ruthlessly. |
I have blood on my hands.
|
He threw it out the door: "Now live here."
|
They continue to thump, I'm on the steps in tears.
|
Blood, bruises, childish fear in the soul.
|
“Why is everything like this? |
And what is all this for?
|
There is no one, neither grandmother nor grandfather.
|
Why do I need these drunk parents? |
God, what should I do? |
Please tell me"
|
Quietly opened the door, took things from the apartment,
|
Ran non-stop, 3-4 minutes.
|
“Mother Mother of God, why am I punished?
|
Is it really my calling to live without happiness?
|
Tears in the eyes, wet feet,
|
I came to the teacher and fell asleep on the threshold.
|
Chorus:
|
The sky is above my head, I will wipe away the tears with my hand.
|
God, please tell me, what are the children to blame?
|
The sky is above my head, I will wipe away the tears with my hand.
|
God, please tell me, what are the children to blame?
|
Morning. |
They found me and took me to the house.
|
Warmed up, fed and asked: "What's wrong with the face?"
|
I was silent, looked away, I was ashamed.
|
Everyone knew our family. |
Everything was obvious.
|
Nina Petrovna hugged me like her own son.
|
She looked into my eyes, cried and asked:
|
"Let's take you away, you will live with us,
|
But if you want, we can take you to mom."
|
"Don't go to mom! |
I beg you.
|
Can I stay, I'm not breathing here.
|
I am not expected at home. |
They don't need me!
|
They don't care if I'm alive, healthy or have a cold."
|
She clasped her hands and hugged him tighter.
|
I don't know why, but my heart felt better. |
I stayed to live, they raised me:
|
They gave money, dressed and loved.
|
We went to the cottage every weekend.
|
Strangers loved more than relatives.
|
They put me on my feet, they saw my fate,
|
I respectfully spoke to them - Parents.
|
Years passed, I grew up dramatically.
|
Business, personal driver, Mercedes S-ka.
|
We already have our own family, we don’t live hard.
|
Then the doorbell rings and two homeless people are on the threshold.
|
“Hello, son, don’t you recognize us?
|
This is mom and dad, but didn’t you wait?
|
What a big house, but we don't have an apartment.
|
Do you remember how your father and I loved you.
|
I look them in the eye - a childish insult.
|
“Daddy, who is this?” asked daughter Rita.
|
"Is this our granddaughter?" |
"No, this is my daughter,
|
Get on the bottle, get out!"
|
Chorus:
|
The sky is above my head, I will wipe away the tears with my hand.
|
God, please tell me, what are the children to blame?
|
The sky is above my head, I will wipe away the tears with my hand.
|
God, please tell me, what are the children to blame?
|
I sat down on an armchair, my heart sank into my heels.
|
I remember how my father and I played hide and seek together.
|
How mom shouted from the window: “Guys, eat!”
|
And then they came, I refused to listen. |
There were normal people when they didn't drink yet.
|
I wanted to ask: “Where were you before?
|
So many years have passed - thoughts by the fireplace,
|
Previously, it was not needed, then they remembered about their son!”
|
But this is not possible, even if there is a scar on the soul.
|
She is a native Mother, and he is a native Father.
|
Ran off the spot, enough fate to suffer,
|
He took them to the house, the Lord taught to forgive! |
