Lyrics
Volg sirene om te herinner
Vrees om te vergaan
Aangetrek om so te verskil
Vrees om te vergaan
Waardering geheg
Aan potensiële verbeuring
So was ek ge-lepelvoer
‘n Spieëlbeeld van ons ouers
So was elkeen waarop ek nou rus
My gedagtes behoort agter tralies
Daar’s net plek vir een in my kis
Ek kon net kyk…
Ek kon net kyk…
Ek kon net kyk hoe alles vergaan
Resies gehou tot my bodem
Terwyl ek telling hou
Telling van ‘n borrel begeerte
Begeerte na bo
Verweer sodra. Sodra die nommer my naam oorneem
Gekam om in te pas
Sodat niemand sal agterkom nie
My gedagtes behoort agter tralies
Daar’s net plek vir een in my kis
Ek kon net kyk…
Ek kon net kyk…
Ek kon net kyk hoe alles vergaan
My gedagtes behoort agter tralies
Daar’s net plek vir een in my kis
Ek kon net kyk…
Ek kon net kyk…
Ek kon net kyk hoe alles vergaan
Lyrics translation
Follow siren to remind
Fear to perish
Attracted to difference
Fear to perish
Appreciation attached
To potential forfeiture
So I was ge-spoon-feeding
A Mirror image of our parents
So was every one on which I now rest
My thoughts belong behind bars
There's only place for one in my coffin
I could only look…
I could only look…
I could just watch everything perish
Races held up to my bottom
While I keep score
Score of a bubble desire
Desire to top
Eroded once. Once the number in my name to take over
Combed to fit in
So no one will notice
My thoughts belong behind bars
There's only place for one in my coffin
I could only look…
I could only look…
I could just watch everything perish
My thoughts belong behind bars
There's only place for one in my coffin
I could only look…
I could only look…
I could just watch everything perish
