Перевод песни Working for the knife (Mitski)

Working for the knife

Работаю на нож

I cry at the start of every movie
I guess ’cause I wish I was making things too
But I’m working for the knife

I used to think I would tell stories
But nobody cared for the stories I had about
No good guys

I always knew the world moves on
I just didn’t know it would go without me
I start the day high
And it ends so low
‘Cause I’m working for the knife

I used to think I’d be done by 20
Now at 29 the road ahead appears the same
Though maybe at 30 I’ll see a way to change
That I’m living for the knife

I always thought the choice was mine
And I was right but I just chose wrong
I start the day lying and end with the truth
That I’m dying for the knife

Раньше я думала, что буду рассказывать истории.
Но никого не интересовали мои истории о
Никчёмных чуваках.

Раньше я думала, что закруглюсь к 20 годам.
Теперь, в 29, дорога впереди кажется такой же.
Хотя, может быть, в 30 лет я увижу способ поменять то,
Что я живу ради ножа.

Я всегда думала, что выбор за мной.
И я была права, но просто выбор мой был неправильным.
Я начинаю день со лжи, а заканчиваю правдой.
О том, что я умираю ради ножа.

About

Lyrically, the song depicts Mitski singing about the motions of life under a “knife” which acts as a metaphor for an oppressive force, whether capitalism, mental illness, aging, or otherwise. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Mitski described the song as «the compass she’d use to find her way back if she veered off the path.» The thematic core of «Working for the Knife» highlights the struggles she faced as her career became more demanding. She characterized her post-Be The Cowboy fame – specifically in the context of music industry relations – as «“shaving away my soul little by little.»

“The music industry is this supersaturated version of consumerism. You are the product being consumed, bought, and sold. Even the people on your team who are your friends, the very foundation of your dynamic is that they get a percentage of your income. Every time I turned something down, it would mean that they would make less money.»

The pressure, exponential increase in visibility, and technically-based mindset that comes with touring forced her to surpress much of her emotions, robbing her of the very aspect of herself that drives her creativity. “This is what really made me quit. I could see a future self, who would put out music for the sake of keeping the machine running. And that really scared me.” [1]

Structure-wise, the song consists of five verses which do not vary greatly melodically or instrumentally, which could represent the monotony and formulaic approach of a capitalist society; there is no relief or catharsis in the song which further emphasises this point.

Japanese Breakfast just keeps getting better, and I’m all in. Jubilee is humorous and haunting, lovesick and protective. A warm record; both because it calms you, and because you’ve played it so many times the mechanism is begging for a break. Maybe next time— for now, I’m dropping the needle on «Posing in Bondage» all over again. jessehd

Working for the knife mitski

Mitski представила трек «Working for the Knife» и показала клип на песню. В нем певица сменила несколько образов и устроила яркий импровизированный перформанс на сцене – многие поклонники разглядели в этом намек на новую эру.

В начале клипа Mitski предстала в облике ковбоя – скорее всего, это отсылка к ее пятому альбому «Be the Cowboy», выпущенному в 2018 году. Однако уже в середине видео певица избавляется от этого костюма, оставаясь в синем шелковом наряде, а затем попадает на сцену и выступает перед пустым залом.

Mitski рассказала о треке:

«Я чувствую, что если я не сделаю в ближайшее время шаг назад, то моя самооценка и личность могут пострадать. Мне придется постоянно оставаться в игре, постоянно крутиться. Мне не хочется заниматься искусством в таких условиях. Особенно когда мне приходится тратить свое драгоценное время, сердце и деньги».

Ранее в этом году Mitski выпустила альбом «This Is Where We Fall», саундтрек к одноименному графическому роману о космических битвах. Однако «Be the Cowboy» до сих пор остается ее последней полноценной студийной работой на сегодня. Возможно, «Working for the Knife» – первый сингл с новой пластинки Mitski, но официально об этом пока не сообщалось.

«Be the Cowboy» получил восторженные отзывы критиков – Billboard, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Time, Stereogum и многие другие издания включили его в список лучших записей года. А незадолго до выхода альбома в любви к творчеству Mitski признался сам Игги Поп – он даже назвал певицу «самым продвинутым американским автором песен». В 2021 году вошедшая в «Be the Cowboy» композиция «Nobody» неожиданно стала новым вирусным хитом в TikTok.

Текст песни Mitski — Working for the Knife

Перевод песни

I cry at the start of every movie
I guess ’cause I wish I was making things too
But I’m working for the knife

I used to think I would tell stories
But nobody cared for the stories I had about
No good guys

I always knew the world moves on
I just didn’t know it would go without me
I start the day high and it ends so low
‘Cause I’m working for the knife

I used to think I’d be done by twenty
Now at twenty-nine, the road ahead appears the same
Though maybe at thirty I’ll see a way to change
That I’m living for the knife

I always thought the choice was mine
And I was right but I just chose wrong
I start the day lying and end with the truth
That I’m dying for the knife

Я плачу в начале каждого фильма
Наверное, потому что я тоже хотел бы что-то делать.
Но я работаю на нож

Раньше я думал, что буду рассказывать истории
Но никому не было дела до моих историй о
Нет хороших парней

Я всегда знал, что мир движется дальше
Я просто не знал, что это пройдет без меня
Я начинаю день высоко, а заканчиваю так низко.
Потому что я работаю на нож

Раньше я думал, что закончу к двадцати
Теперь, в двадцать девять, дорога впереди кажется такой же
Хотя, может быть, в тридцать я увижу способ измениться
Что я живу ради ножа

Я всегда думал, что выбор за мной
И я был прав, но я просто сделал неправильный выбор
Я начинаю день с лжи и заканчиваю правдой
Что я умираю из-за ножа

Mitski’s Working For The Knife

Overview

Mitski’s Working For The Knife is a song written by Mitski, who is a Japanese-American performing artist. The song ended the drought of Mitski releases that has lasted for over a year and a half, and was more than surprising to much of her audience when they first listened to it. Memes have been made of the song and music video for either the lyrics, the depression/Joker themes present in the video, and the announced tour dates that came with the release of the video.

Background

In February of 2020, Mitski released the last new song that her fans would hear for a year and a half. On October 4th, 2021, it was revealed on Mitski’s Twitter [1] account that the following day would see the release of a new song, and music video. The song was released, called Working For The Knife, and the accompanying music video and new United States tour release dates were announced. The music video was uploaded on the official Mitski Mitski YouTube [2] channel, where it received over 700,000 views in 14 hours (shown below).

Online Reaction

Online the reactions were very unified, with pained expressions for those who felt the weight of the song or didn’t get tour dates near them, and joyful reveling for those who saw a moment to make memes about the song, or have already bought their tickets for a show. Twitter user @jan3yr0x [3] best summarized the feeling of the fandom with their image posted that received 12,000 likes in eight hours (shown below)

Another fan of Mitski noticed the similarities between her persona within the music video and that of Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion, in a Twitter [4] post that gained 400 likes in five hours (shown below).

A common reaction and meme that sprang up from the song is to take the lyrics from it and place them over an existing meme or image conveying intense depression and sadness, as seen in the Twitter [5] post by @folkloresouldout that gained 16,300 likes in 10 hours (shown below).

A secondary meme to spawn from the song is to misinterpret what Working For The Knife means into a literal sense, as in posting images of people working with or on knives, or working other various jobs, and reference the knife. This is best shown in the Twitter [6] post by Corduroygos, who gained 150 likes in three hours with a meme about steelwork (shown below).

Mitski Makes A Powerful Return (In A Cowboy Hat) In ‘Working For The Knife’

Something interesting happened yesterday. Early in the day, Mitski posted some teasers on social media hinting that a new song would be dropping in 24 hours or so. Then, Facebook and Instagram (and a bunch of related apps) all went down for several hours. I’m not saying these events are related — or that Adele’s seemingly imminent return to the musical fore contributed — but there’s certainly something to be said about Mitski’s growth as both an artist and a global superstar, and how the arrival of new music from her signals a huge moment.

Her power is on full display on «Working for the Knife,» the self-probing new track she released today (October 5). It’s not a barnburner or a dance-ready bop. In fact, it’s mid-tempo and confessional, though one of the best hooks throughout the song is the down-strummed fuzzy guitar on the chorus. This is Mitski we’re talking about.

«Working for the Knife» finds her discussing her own staying power over rainy keyboards and seems to nod to her own legacy as a songwriter and performer in the public eye. «I used to think I’d be done by 20 / Now at 29, the road ahead appears the same,» she sings with resolve. «Though maybe at 30 I’ll see a way to change / That I’m living for the knife.»

The song was written by Mitski and recorded with help from her trusted collaborator Patrick Hyland, who also worked on 2014’s Bury Me at Makeout Creek, 2016’s Puberty 2, and 2018’s Be the Cowboy. When she sings, «I always knew the world moves on / I just didn’t know it would go on without me,» that’s extremely real, end-of-your-twenties kind of shit. I feel it deeply!

«Working for the Knife» arrives with a Zia Anger-directed visual that finds Mitski once again being the cowboy in an actual cowboy hat, though quickly losing it (and a long coat) for a baggy-sleeved blue performance outfit. The next few minutes are essentially Mitski’s one-woman show, and she makes the most of them by crawling through an auditorium at Albany’s The Egg, stripping down and collapsing onstage, then seemingly losing her shit in the unforgiving gaze of the spotlight.

Along with «Working for the Knife» comes news of a 2022 tour that’ll find Mitski hitting both North America and Europe. It’s a nice continuation of the live-show groundwork she’s laid for the past decade, including most notably opening for Lorde in 2017 and 2018 on the Melodrama world tour — which brought Mitski legions of new fans. They also mark Mitski’s first concerts since September 2019, and you can find all the tour info right here.

Watch, listen, and experience «Working for the Knife» above.

Текст песни

[Verse 1]
I cry at the start of every movie
I guess ’cause I wish I was making things, too
But I’m working for the knife

[Verse 2]
I used to think I would tell stories
But nobody cared for the stories I had about
No good guys

[Verse 3]
I always knew the world moves on
I just didn’t know it would go without me
I start the day high and it ends so low
‘Cause I’m working for the knife

[Verse 4]
I used to think I’d be done by twenty
Now at twenty-nine, the road ahead appears the same
Though maybe at thirty, I’ll see a way to change
That I’m living for the knife

[Verse 5]
I always thought the choice was mine
And I was right, but I just chose wrong
I start the day lying and end with the truth
That I’m dying for the knife
