So Fast, So Numb by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
You're moving through rough waters
Motor boy
And swimming in your sleep
How could I be so blind, mis-sighted
Not to see there's something wounded deep
Anyone could scratch your surface now
It's all amphetamine
You're blasting yourself into the present
To blur some past indignity, say that
You say that
You hate it
You want to re-create it
I've been around, I've been your lover
I let it go at Kill Devil Hills
You're coming onto something so fast, so numb
That you can't even feel
You're drinking raw adrenal baby
And do-si-do, saddo
You're eating cartilage, shark-eyes, shark-heart
All present tense
Boy, your blood is running cold
Listen! This is now, this is here
This is me, this is what I wanted
You to see
That was then, that was that
That is gone, that is past
You cast yourself, cast
Passed by, thrown down fast, you say
You say that
You hate it
You want to re-create it
I've played this round, I've played your lover
I've played it out and to the hilt
You're coming onto something so fast, so numb
That you can't even feel
You love it
You hate it
You want to re-create it
Now! This is here, this is me
This is what I wanted you to see
That was then, that was that
That is gone, that is what
I wanted you to feel
You love it
You hate it
I'm spitting out the bitter pill
I've been around, I've been your lover
I let it go at Kill Devil Hills
You're coming onto something so fast, so numb
That you can't even feel
I've played this round, I've played your lover
I've played it out and to the hilt
You're coming onto something so fast, so numb
That you can't even feel
You've played around, you played me lover
I let it go at Kill Devil Hills
You're moving so hard, so fast, so numb
That you can't even feel

So Fast, So Numb (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Te mueves por aguas turbulentas
Chico motor
Y nadas en tu sueño
¿Cómo pude ser tan ciego, tan despistado
Para no ver que hay algo herido en lo profundo
Cualquiera podría arañar tu superficie ahora
Todo es anfetamina
Te estás lanzando al presente
Para difuminar alguna indignidad pasada, di eso
Dices eso
Lo odias
Quieres recrearlo
He estado por aquí, he sido tu amante
Lo dejé ir en Kill Devil Hills
Estás llegando a algo tan rápido, tan insensible
Que ni siquiera puedes sentir
Estás bebiendo adrenalina pura, cariño
Y do-si-do, triste
Estás comiendo cartílago, ojos de tiburón, corazón de tiburón
Todo en presente
Chico, tu sangre se está enfriando
¡Escucha! Esto es ahora, esto está aquí
Esto soy yo, esto es lo que quería
Que vieras
Eso fue entonces, eso fue eso
Eso se fue, eso es pasado
Te lanzas, lanzas
Pasado, derribado rápido, dices
Dices eso
Lo odias
Quieres recrearlo
He jugado esta ronda, he sido tu amante
Lo he jugado hasta el final y al máximo
Estás llegando a algo tan rápido, tan insensible
Que ni siquiera puedes sentir
Lo amas
Lo odias
Quieres recrearlo
¡Ahora! Esto está aquí, esto soy yo
Esto es lo que quería que vieras
Eso fue entonces, eso fue eso
Eso se fue, eso es lo que
Quería que sintieras
Lo amas
Lo odias
Estoy escupiendo la píldora amarga
He estado por aquí, he sido tu amante
Lo dejé ir en Kill Devil Hills
Estás llegando a algo tan rápido, tan insensible
Que ni siquiera puedes sentir
He jugado esta ronda, he sido tu amante
Lo he jugado hasta el final y al máximo
Estás llegando a algo tan rápido, tan insensible
Que ni siquiera puedes sentir
Has jugado, me jugaste amante
Lo dejé ir en Kill Devil Hills
Te mueves tan fuerte, tan rápido, tan insensible
Que ni siquiera puedes sentir
