Lyrics & Translation
English
You know the distance never made a difference to me
I swam a lake of fire, I'd have walked across the floor of any sea
Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen
And all that we believe
So I thought you were like an angel to me
Funny how true colours shine in darkness and in secrecy
If there were scarlet flags
They washed out in the mind of me
Where a blinding light shone on you every night
And either side of my sleep
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me
It ain't the being alone
Sha-la-la
It ain't the empty home, baby
Sha-la-la
You know I'm good on my own
Sha-la-la
Sha-la-la, baby, you know it's more the being unknown
So much of the living, love, is the being unknown
You called me angel for the first time, my heart leapt from me
You smile now, I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth
And what's left of it, I listen to it tick
Every tedious beat going unknown as any angel to me
Do you know, I could break beneath the weight
Of the goodness, love, I still carry for you?
That I'd walk so far just to take
The injury of finally knowing you
It ain't the being alone
Sha-la-la
It ain't the empty home, baby
Sha-la-la
You know I'm good on my own
Sha-la-la
Sha-la-la, baby
You know it's more the being unknown
And there are some people, love, who are better unknown

Unknown / Nth (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Sabes que la distancia nunca me importó
Nadé un lago de fuego, habría caminado por el fondo de cualquier mar
Ignoré la inmensidad entre todo lo que se puede ver
Y todo lo que creemos
Así que pensé que eras como un ángel para mí
Es curioso cómo los verdaderos colores brillan en la oscuridad y en el secreto
Si había banderas escarlata
Se desvanecieron en mi mente
Donde una luz cegadora brillaba sobre ti cada noche
Y a cada lado de mi sueño
Donde te mantuviste congelada como un ángel para mí
No es el estar solo
Sha-la-la
No es el hogar vacío, cariño
Sha-la-la
Sabes que estoy bien solo
Sha-la-la
Sha-la-la, cariño, sabes que es más el ser desconocido
Gran parte de la vida, amor, es el ser desconocido
Me llamaste ángel por primera vez, mi corazón saltó de mí
Sonríes ahora, puedo ver sus pedazos todavía pegados en tus dientes
Y lo que queda de él, lo escucho tic-tac
Cada latido tedioso pasando desapercibido como cualquier ángel para mí
¿Sabes que podría derrumbarme bajo el peso
De la bondad, amor, que todavía siento por ti?
Que caminaría tan lejos solo para aceptar
La herida de finalmente conocerte
No es el estar solo
Sha-la-la
No es el hogar vacío, cariño
Sha-la-la
Sabes que estoy bien solo
Sha-la-la
Sha-la-la, cariño
Sabes que es más el ser desconocido
Y hay algunas personas, amor, que es mejor que sigan siendo desconocidas
