Bravado by Lorde
Lyrics & Translation
English
All my life
I've been fighting a war
I can't talk to you or your friends
It's not only you
My heart jumps around when I'm alluded to
This will not do
'Cause I was raised up
To be admired to be noticed
But when you're withdrawn it's the closest thing
To assault when all eyes are on you
This will not do
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm faking glory
Lick my lips toss my hair
And turn the smile on
And the story's brand-new
But I can take it from here
I'll find my own bravado
It's a switch flipped
It's a pill tipped back, it's a moon eclipsed, whoa
And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
It's in your bloodstream
A collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
It's a marathon run or a mountain you scale without thinking of size
I was frightened of every little thing that I thought was out to get me down
To trip me up and laugh at me
But I learnt not to want
The quiet of the room with no one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
It's a switch flipped
It's a pill tipped back, it's a moon eclipsed, whoa
And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
It's in your blood stream
A collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
It's a marathon run or a mountain you scale without thinking of size
I was frightened of every little thing that I thought was out to get me down
To trip me up and laugh at me
But I learnt not to want
The quiet of the room with no one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Bravado (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Toda mi vida
He estado librando una guerra
No puedo hablar contigo ni con tus amigos
No eres solo tú
Mi corazón salta cuando se me alude
Esto no servirá
Porque fui criada
Para ser admirada, para ser notada
Pero cuando te retraes es lo más parecido
A un asalto cuando todos los ojos están en ti
Esto no servirá
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Estoy fingiendo gloria
Me lamo los labios, me echo el pelo hacia atrás
Y enciendo la sonrisa
Y la historia es completamente nueva
Pero puedo tomarlo desde aquí
Encontraré mi propia bravata
Es un interruptor accionado
Es una pastilla que se inclina hacia atrás, es una luna eclipsada, whoa
Y puedo decirte que cuando las luces se enciendan estaré lista para esto
Está en tu torrente sanguíneo
Una colisión de átomos que ocurre ante tus ojos
Es una maratón corrida o una montaña que escalas sin pensar en el tamaño
Me asustaba cada pequeña cosa que creía que quería deprimirme
Para hacerme tropezar y reírse de mí
Pero aprendí a no querer
La tranquilidad de la habitación sin nadie alrededor que me descubra
Quiero los aplausos, la aprobación, las cosas que me hacen ir
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Es un interruptor accionado
Es una pastilla que se inclina hacia atrás, es una luna eclipsada, whoa
Y puedo decirte que cuando las luces se enciendan estaré lista para esto
Está en tu torrente sanguíneo
Una colisión de átomos que ocurre ante tus ojos
Es una maratón corrida o una montaña que escalas sin pensar en el tamaño
Me asustaba cada pequeña cosa que creía que quería deprimirme
Para hacerme tropezar y reírse de mí
Pero aprendí a no querer
La tranquilidad de la habitación sin nadie alrededor que me descubra
Quiero los aplausos, la aprobación, las cosas que me hacen ir
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
