Boy
He can't make sense of this
He's just too normal
This place is too scary
He's so scared that he'll miss
It keeps him in hiding
And restless and wanting
What if for one minute
He's given a chance
And he does something brilliant
But he'd rather not know
Cause walls protect him
His bedroom's a prison
Now is your chance boy just ignore
The dreadful things they say
Go on, give up, you'll never win
No crying now, they're watching him
His blood will boil, the kids will sing
Learn to drown before you learn to swim
If he took his time to prepare
Stepped out of his shell
Blows an addiction
Such a comforting place
A common mistake
A dry wishing well
Now is your chance boy just ignore
The dreadful things they say
Go on, give up, you'll never win
No crying now, they're watching him
His blood will boil, the kids will sing
Learn to drown before you learn to swim
So go on, give up, you'll never win
Oh, what a mistake
He is charcoal within
He could never direct by them
He stands on the stage
With a grin
But he drops on his knees
And is waiting for anything he can believe in
He's lost, he just wants to be ordinary
Now is your chance boy just ignore
The dreadful things they say
Go on, give up, you'll never win
No crying now, they're watching him
His blood will boil, the kids will sing
Learn to drown before you learn to swim
Go on, give up, you'll never win
No crying now, they're watching him
His blood will boil, the kids will sing
Learn to drown before you learn to swim
Go on, give up, you'll never win
No crying now, they're watching him
His blood will boil, the kids will sing
Learn to drown before you learn to swim
Go on, give up, you'll never win
No crying now, they're watching him
Go on, give up, you'll never win
Chico
No puede darle sentido a esto
Es demasiado normal
Este lugar es demasiado aterrador
Está tan asustado que echará de menos
Lo mantiene escondido
Y inquieto y queriendo
¿Qué pasa si por un minuto
Le ha dado una oportunidad
Y hace algo brillante
Pero preferiría no saberlo
Porque las paredes lo protegen
Su dormitorio es una prisión
Ahora es tu oportunidad chico simplemente ignora
Las cosas terribles que dicen
Vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
Ahora no lloras, lo están vigilando
Su sangre hervirá, los niños cantarán
Aprende a ahogarte antes de aprender a nadar
Si se tomara su tiempo para preparar
Salió de su caparazón
Golpea una adicción
Un lugar tan reconfortante
Un error común
Un pozo seco que desea
Ahora es tu oportunidad chico simplemente ignora
Las cosas terribles que dicen
Vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
Ahora no lloras, lo están vigilando
Su sangre hervirá, los niños cantarán
Aprende a ahogarte antes de aprender a nadar
Así que vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
Oh, qué error
Él es carbón dentro de
Nunca podría dirigir por ellos
Está de pie en el escenario
Con una sonrisa
Pero cae de rodillas
Y está esperando cualquier cosa en la que pueda creer
Está perdido, sólo quiere ser ordinario
Ahora es tu oportunidad chico simplemente ignora
Las cosas terribles que dicen
Vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
Ahora no lloras, lo están vigilando
Su sangre hervirá, los niños cantarán
Aprende a ahogarte antes de aprender a nadar
Vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
Ahora no lloras, lo están vigilando
Su sangre hervirá, los niños cantarán
Aprende a ahogarte antes de aprender a nadar
Vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
Ahora no lloras, lo están vigilando
Su sangre hervirá, los niños cantarán
Aprende a ahogarte antes de aprender a nadar
Vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
Ahora no lloras, lo están vigilando
Vamos, ríndate, nunca ganarás
