Yendo mal

Down By Law

Going Wrong

I've been thinking of the things you said to me
And I don't know if I can be
what you wanted me to be
I'm sorry if I failed
I'm sorry that I tried
It's a wound but now it's cut and dried
And I don't know what it's gonna be
All the illusions and dishonesty
A broken record -- the same old song
Everything is going wrong
We only have the time to make so many mistakes
One try to keep it real -- better than a hundred that are fake
A candle in the wind gets snuffed before it glows
I'm the candle, you're the wind -- so go ahead and blow
And I don't know what it's gonna be
Every wrong answer all I ever see
A broken record -- the same old song
Everything is going wrong
And I don't know what it's gonna be
Drowning in a sea of dishonesty
This is your story -- this is your song
"Come as you are" but come along
Totalitarian mentality
I tried it on but that's not me
Expectations -- I failed to measure up
Here's the poison -- would you like a cup?
Your perfect world was going strong
Your perfect world is going wrong

Yendo mal

He estado pensando en las cosas que me dijiste
Y no sé si puedo ser
lo que querías que fuera
Lo siento si fallé
Lo siento por haberlo intentado
Es una herida pero ahora está resuelto
Y no sé qué va a pasar
Todas las ilusiones y la deshonestidad
Un disco rayado, la misma canción de siempre
Todo está yendo mal
Solo tenemos tiempo para cometer tantos errores
Intenta mantenerlo real, mejor que cien que sean falsos
Una vela en el viento se apaga antes de brillar
Yo soy la vela, tú eres el viento, así que sigue adelante y sopla
Y no sé qué va a pasar
Cada respuesta incorrecta es todo lo que veo
Un disco rayado, la misma canción de siempre
Todo está yendo mal
Y no sé qué va a pasar
Ahogándome en un mar de deshonestidad
Esta es tu historia, esta es tu canción
