Lyrics & Translation
English
It would simply say everything if you would
take a pen and write my name on a friend
who never cared to let me in.
Then take a fast ravine that for
three years swimming straight upstream and the wind,
the wind will drag me down in the end.
You live inside my wall and I,
I reach back, hit your harder than God falls
Christ, Amen, Amen, Amen.
You're such a line to break and I'm,
I'm so scared to make another mistake in the end
But I just want to be happy again.
Until it all falls down,
and where does that leave me?
With things, things, I've got so many things to say
with a broken heart and a straight face
I'm saying, "brother, help me"
It's just a natural phase that I,
I go through and then it's taken away and then bam, bam, I'm fixed.
(fixed, fixed, fixed..)
And I'm in another place to be where I,
I can't sleep without the thought of me being so, so damn sick.
(I'm sick, I'm sick, I'm sick)
But take this song, take this song away
until it all falls down,
and where does that leave me?
With things, things, I've got so many things to say
with a broken heart and a straight face
And he says "reach for the girl,
reach for the girl and hold her close.
Believe you can shine when you're silver,
and I promise you gold. I promise you gold.
And whenever you're dark inside,
don't let go. No, don't let go.
Remember there's rain and there's candy and Christmasy winter snow.
And remember I love you the same and I'll strangle you're pain"
And he tells me to sing, and I sing,
and I sing for my brother who keeps me sane
and tells me everything will be ok.
I'm so alone
God, I'm so alone
I'm so alone
I'm alone

For My Brother (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Diría simplemente todo si tú
tomaras un bolígrafo y escribieras mi nombre en un amigo
a quien nunca le importó dejarme entrar.
Luego toma un barranco rápido que por
tres años nadando contra corriente y el viento,
el viento me arrastrará al final.
Vives dentro de mi muro y yo,
yo me echo hacia atrás, te golpeo más fuerte de lo que Dios cae
Cristo, Amén, Amén, Amén.
Eres una línea tan difícil de romper y yo,
tengo tanto miedo de cometer otro error al final
Pero solo quiero ser feliz de nuevo.
Hasta que todo se caiga,
¿y dónde me deja eso?
Con cosas, cosas, tengo tantas cosas que decir
con el corazón roto y la cara seria
Estoy diciendo, "hermano, ayúdame"
Es solo una fase natural por la que yo,
paso y luego se me quita y luego bam, bam, estoy arreglado.
(arreglado, arreglado, arreglado..)
Y estoy en otro lugar donde yo,
no puedo dormir sin pensar que estoy tan, tan malditamente enfermo.
(Estoy enfermo, estoy enfermo, estoy enfermo)
Pero quita esta canción, quita esta canción
hasta que todo se caiga,
¿y dónde me deja eso?
Con cosas, cosas, tengo tantas cosas que decir
con el corazón roto y la cara seria
Y él dice "busca a la chica,
busca a la chica y abrázala fuerte.
Cree que puedes brillar cuando eres plata,
y te prometo oro. Te prometo oro.
Y cuando estés oscuro por dentro,
no te rindas. No, no te rindas.
Recuerda que hay lluvia y hay dulces y nieve invernal navideña.
Y recuerda que te amo igual y estrangularé tu dolor"
Y él me dice que cante, y yo canto,
y canto para mi hermano que me mantiene cuerdo
y me dice que todo estará bien.
Estoy tan solo
Dios, estoy tan solo
Estoy tan solo
Estoy solo
