I've waited hours for this
I've made myself so sick
I wish I'dstayed
Asleep today
I never thoughtthis day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be this close to me
Just try to see in the dark
Just try to make it work
To feel the fear before you're here
I make the shapes come much too close
I pull my eyes out
Hold my breath
And wait until I shake...
But if I had your faith Then I could make it safe and clean
If only I was sure That my head on the door was a dream
I've waited hours for this
I've made myself so sick
I wish I'dstayed asleep today
I never thought this day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be This close to me
But if I had your faith Then I could make it safe and clean
If only I was sure That my head on the door was a dream…
He aguardado durante horas para esto I've made myself so sick
Que me hace
sentir tan mal I
wish I'd stayed
Deseo poder permanecer = quedarme Asleep today
Dormido (durante) todo el día
I never thought this day would end
Pense que este día nunca terminaría I never thought tonight could ever be
Nunca pensé que esta noche pudiera estar this close to me
Tan cerca de mi
Just try to see in the dark
Tan sólo intento ver en la obscuridad Just try to make it work
Sólo intento hacerlo funcionar To feel the fear before you're here
El sentir el
temor antes de que llegues
= te des cuenta I
make the shapes come much too close
Hago que las
formas = siluetas se acerquen mucho más de la cuenta I
pull my eyes out
Mis ojos salen
de sus cuencas
= están desorbitados Hold
my breath
Contengo el
aliento And
wait until I shake...
Y espero hasta
que me comienzo a estremecer…
But if I had your faith
Pero si yo
tuviese (un poco de) tu fe Then
I could make it safe and clean
Entonces podría
llegar sano y salvo
= superar todo esto If
only I was sure
Si tan sólo
hubiese estado seguro That
my head on the door was a dream
De que mi cabeza
sobre la puerta era (tan sólo) un sueño
I've waited hours for this
I've made myself so sick
I wish I'd stayed asleep today
I never thought this day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be
This close to me
But if I had your face
Pero si hubiese
tenido tu rostro
= hubiese sido tú Then
I could make it safe and clean
If only I was sure
That my head on the door was a dream…
You shatter me your grip on me a hold on me
So dull it kills you stifle me infectious sense of Hopelessness and prayers for rain I suffocate I
Breathe in dirt and nowhere shines but desolate
And drab the hours allspent on killing time
Again all waiting for the rain
You fracture me your hands on me a touch so
Plain sostale it kills you strangle me entangle
Me in hopelessness and prayers for rain I...
Deteriorate I live in dirt and nowhere glows but
Dreary and tired the hours allspent on killing
Time again all waiting for the rain...
Jimmy Got Nothing made himself a name
With a gun that he polished for a rainy day
A smile and a quote from a vigilante movie Our boy Jimmy just blewthem all away He said it madehim crazy
Twenty five years living hand to mouth Hand to mouth...
Sweet little baby on a big white doorstep
She needs her mother but her mother is dead
Just another hooker that the lucky can forget
Just another hooker
It happens everyday
She loved her little baby
But she couldn't bear to see her living hand to mouth Hand to mouth...
I believe in the gods of America...
I believe in the land of the free...
But no one told me... That the gods believe in nothing
So with emptyhands I pray
And from day to hopeless day They still don't see me...
Everybody talks about the new generation
Jump on the wagon or they'll leave you behind
But no one gave a thought to the rest of the nation
"Like tohelp you buddy, but I haven't got the time"
Somebody shouted save me
But everybodystarted living hand to mouth Hand to mouth...
There's a big white lady
On a big white doorstep
She asked her daddy and her daddy said "yes" Has to give a little for the dollars that we get Has to give a little
They say it's for the best Somebody shouted
Maybe
But they kept on living from hand to mouth Hand to mouth...
So she ran to the arms of America
And she kissed the powers that be
And someone told me
(Someone told me) That the gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray
And I tell myself
One day They just might see me...
