Idiot Wind
Bob Dylan
Someone's got it in for me
They're planting stories in the press
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out quick
But when they will I can only guess
They say I shot a man named Gray
And took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks
And when she died it came to me
I can't help it if I'm lucky
People see me all the time
And they just can't remember how to act
Their minds are filled with big ideas
Images and distorted facts
Even you, yesterday
You had to ask me where it was at
I couldn't believe after all these years
You didn't know me better than that
Sweet lady
Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your mouth
Blowing down the back roads headin' south
Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
I ran into the fortune-teller
Who said, "beware of lightning that might strike"
I haven't known peace and quiet
For so long I can't remember what it's like
There's a lone soldier on the cross
Smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door
You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done
In the final end he won the wars
After losin' every battle
I woke up on the roadside
Daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Visions of your chestnut mare
Shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars
You hurt the ones that I love best
And cover up the truth with lies
One day you'll be in the ditch
Flies buzzin' around your eyes
Blood on your saddle
Idiot wind
Blowing through the flowers on your tomb
Blowing through the curtains in your room
Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
It was gravity which pulled us down
And destiny which broke us apart
You tamed the lion in my cage
But it just wasn't enough to change my heart
Now everything's a little upside down
As a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
What's good is bad, what's bad is good
You'll find out when you reach the top
You're on the bottom
I noticed at the ceremony
Your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
I can't remember your face anymore
Your mouth has changed
Your eyes don't look into mine
The priest wore black on the seventh day
And sat stone-faced while the building burned
I waited for you on the running boards
Near the cypress trees, while the springtime turned
Slowly into autumn
Idiot wind
Blowing like a circle around my skull
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol
Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
I can't feel you anymore
I can't even touch the books you've read
Every time I crawl past your door
I been wishin' I was somebody else instead
Down the highway, down the tracks
Down the road to ecstasy
I followed you beneath the stars
Hounded by your memory
And all your ragin' glory
I been double-crossed now
For the very last time and now I'm finally free
I kissed goodbye the howling beast
On the borderline which separated you from me
You'll never know the hurt I suffered
Nor the pain I rise above
And I'll never know the same about you
Your holiness or your kind of love
And it makes me feel so sorry
Idiot wind
Blowing through the buttons of our coats
Blowing through the letters that we wrote
Idiot wind
Blowing through the dust upon our shelves
We're idiots, babe
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves
Someone's got it in for me
Jemand hat es auf mich abgesehen
They're planting stories in the press
Sie verbreiten Geschichten in der Presse
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out quick
Wer auch immer es ist, ich wünschte, sie würden es schnell lassen
But when they will I can only guess
Aber wann sie es tun werden, kann ich nur raten
They say I shot a man named Gray
Sie sagen, ich habe einen Mann namens Gray erschossen
And took his wife to Italy
Und nahm seine Frau mit nach Italien
She inherited a million bucks
Sie erbte eine Million Dollar
And when she died it came to me
Und als sie starb, kam es zu mir
I can't help it if I'm lucky
Ich kann nichts dafür, wenn ich Glück habe
People see me all the time
Die Leute sehen mich die ganze Zeit
And they just can't remember how to act
Und sie können sich einfach nicht daran erinnern, wie sie sich verhalten sollen
Their minds are filled with big ideas
Ihre Köpfe sind voller großer Ideen
Images and distorted facts
Bilder und verzerrte Fakten
Even you, yesterday
Sogar du, gestern
You had to ask me where it was at
Du musstest mich fragen, wo es war
I couldn't believe after all these years
Ich konnte nicht glauben, nach all diesen Jahren
You didn't know me better than that
Du kanntest mich nicht besser als das
Sweet lady
Süße Dame
Idiot wind
Idiotenwind
Blowing every time you move your mouth
Bläst jedes Mal, wenn du deinen Mund bewegst
Blowing down the back roads headin' south
Bläst auf den Nebenstraßen Richtung Süden
Idiot wind
Idiotenwind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
Bläst jedes Mal, wenn du deine Zähne bewegst
You're an idiot, babe
Du bist ein Idiot, Baby
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
Es ist ein Wunder, dass du noch weißt, wie man atmet
I ran into the fortune-teller
Ich rannte in die Wahrsagerin
Who said, "beware of lightning that might strike"
Die sagte: „Hüte dich vor dem Blitz, der einschlagen könnte“
I haven't known peace and quiet
Ich habe seit so langer Zeit keinen Frieden und Ruhe gekannt
For so long I can't remember what it's like
Dass ich mich nicht mehr daran erinnern kann, wie es ist
There's a lone soldier on the cross
Da ist ein einsamer Soldat am Kreuz
Smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door
Rauch strömt aus einer Güterwagentür
You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done
Du wusstest es nicht, du dachtest nicht, dass es getan werden könnte
In the final end he won the wars
Am Ende hat er die Kriege gewonnen
After losin' every battle
Nachdem er jede Schlacht verloren hat
I woke up on the roadside
Ich wachte am Straßenrand auf
Daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Tagträumend von der Art, wie die Dinge manchmal sind
Visions of your chestnut mare
Visionen von deiner Kastanienstute
Shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars
Schießen durch meinen Kopf und lassen mich Sterne sehen
You hurt the ones that I love best
Du verletzt die, die ich am meisten liebe
And cover up the truth with lies
Und deckst die Wahrheit mit Lügen zu
One day you'll be in the ditch
Eines Tages wirst du im Graben sein
Flies buzzin' around your eyes
Fliegen summen um deine Augen
Blood on your saddle
Blut auf deinem Sattel
Idiot wind
Idiotenwind
Blowing through the flowers on your tomb
Bläst durch die Blumen auf deinem Grab
Blowing through the curtains in your room
Bläst durch die Vorhänge in deinem Zimmer
Idiot wind
Idiotenwind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
Bläst jedes Mal, wenn du deine Zähne bewegst
You're an idiot, babe
Du bist ein Idiot, Baby
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
Es ist ein Wunder, dass du noch weißt, wie man atmet
It was gravity which pulled us down
Es war die Schwerkraft, die uns nach unten zog
And destiny which broke us apart
Und das Schicksal, das uns auseinander riss
You tamed the lion in my cage
Du hast den Löwen in meinem Käfig gezähmt
But it just wasn't enough to change my heart
Aber es war einfach nicht genug, um mein Herz zu ändern
Now everything's a little upside down
Jetzt ist alles ein bisschen auf den Kopf gestellt
As a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
Tatsächlich haben die Räder aufgehört
What's good is bad, what's bad is good
Was gut ist, ist schlecht, was schlecht ist, ist gut
You'll find out when you reach the top
Du wirst es herausfinden, wenn du die Spitze erreichst
You're on the bottom
Du bist am Boden
I noticed at the ceremony
Ich bemerkte bei der Zeremonie
Your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
Deine korrupten Wege hatten dich endlich blind gemacht
I can't remember your face anymore
Ich kann mich nicht mehr an dein Gesicht erinnern
Your mouth has changed
Dein Mund hat sich verändert
Your eyes don't look into mine
Deine Augen schauen nicht mehr in meine
The priest wore black on the seventh day
Der Priester trug am siebten Tag Schwarz
And sat stone-faced while the building burned
Und saß steinern, während das Gebäude brannte
I waited for you on the running boards
Ich wartete auf dich auf den Trittbrettern
Near the cypress trees, while the springtime turned
In der Nähe der Zypressen, während der Frühling sich
Slowly into autumn
Langsam in den Herbst verwandelte
Idiot wind

I can't feel you anymore
Ich kann dich nicht mehr fühlen
I can't even touch the books you've read
Ich kann nicht einmal die Bücher berühren, die du gelesen hast
Every time I crawl past your door
Jedes Mal, wenn ich an deiner Tür vorbeikrieche
I been wishin' I was somebody else instead
Wünschte ich, ich wäre jemand anderes stattdessen
Down the highway, down the tracks
Die Autobahn hinunter, die Gleise hinunter
Down the road to ecstasy
Die Straße zur Ekstase hinunter
I followed you beneath the stars
Ich folgte dir unter den Sternen
Hounded by your memory
Gejagt von deiner Erinnerung
And all your ragin' glory
Und all deiner wütenden Herrlichkeit
I been double-crossed now
Ich wurde jetzt doppelt gekreuzt
For the very last time and now I'm finally free
Zum allerletzten Mal und jetzt bin ich endlich frei
I kissed goodbye the howling beast
Ich küsste das heulende Biest zum Abschied
On the borderline which separated you from me
An der Grenze, die dich von mir trennte
You'll never know the hurt I suffered
Du wirst nie den Schmerz kennen, den ich erlitten habe
Nor the pain I rise above
Noch den Schmerz, den ich überwinde
And I'll never know the same about you
Und ich werde nie das Gleiche über dich wissen
Your holiness or your kind of love
Deine Heiligkeit oder deine Art von Liebe
And it makes me feel so sorry
Und es tut mir so leid

Dizem que eu atirei em um homem chamado Gray
And took his wife to Italy

She inherited a million bucks
Ela herdou um milhão de dólares
And when she died it came to me

You're an idiot, babe

I ran into the fortune-teller
Eu encontrei a vidente
Who said, "beware of lightning that might strike"
Que disse, "cuidado com o raio que pode atingir"
I haven't known peace and quiet
Eu não conheço paz e sossego
For so long I can't remember what it's like
Há tanto tempo que não me lembro como é
There's a lone soldier on the cross
Há um soldado solitário na cruz
Smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door
Fumaça saindo de uma porta de vagão
You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done
Você não sabia, você não achava que poderia ser feito
In the final end he won the wars
No final, ele ganhou as guerras
After losin' every battle
Depois de perder todas as batalhas
I woke up on the roadside
Eu acordei na beira da estrada
Daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Sonhando acordado sobre como as coisas às vezes são
Visions of your chestnut mare
Visões de sua égua castanha
Shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars
Passam pela minha cabeça e estão me fazendo ver estrelas
You hurt the ones that I love best
Você machucou aqueles que eu mais amo

Blood on your saddle
Sangue na sua sela

And destiny which broke us apart
E o destino que nos separou
You tamed the lion in my cage
Você domou o leão na minha jaula
But it just wasn't enough to change my heart
Mas isso simplesmente não foi suficiente para mudar meu coração
Now everything's a little upside down
Agora tudo está um pouco de cabeça para baixo
As a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
Na verdade, as rodas pararam
What's good is bad, what's bad is good
O que é bom é ruim, o que é ruim é bom
You'll find out when you reach the top
Você descobrirá quando chegar ao topo
You're on the bottom
Você está no fundo

Eu notei na cerimônia
Your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
Seus caminhos corruptos finalmente te cegaram

Sua boca mudou
Your eyes don't look into mine
Seus olhos não olham mais para os meus
The priest wore black on the seventh day
O padre vestiu preto no sétimo dia
And sat stone-faced while the building burned

Perto das árvores de cipreste, enquanto a primavera se transformava
Slowly into autumn
Lentamente em outono

I been wishin' I was somebody else instead
Eu desejo ser outra pessoa em vez de você
Down the highway, down the tracks
Pela estrada, pelos trilhos
Down the road to ecstasy
Pela estrada para a ecstasy
I followed you beneath the stars
Eu segui você sob as estrelas
Hounded by your memory
Perseguido pela sua memória
And all your ragin' glory
E toda a sua glória furiosa
I been double-crossed now
Eu fui traído agora
For the very last time and now I'm finally free
Pela última vez e agora estou finalmente livre
I kissed goodbye the howling beast
Eu beijei adeus a fera uivante
On the borderline which separated you from me
Na fronteira que separava você de mim
You'll never know the hurt I suffered

For so long I can't remember what it's like

What's good is bad, what's bad is good
Ce qui est bon est mauvais, ce qui est mauvais est bon
You'll find out when you reach the top
Tu le découvriras quand tu atteindras le sommet
You're on the bottom
Tu es au fond
I noticed at the ceremony
J'ai remarqué lors de la cérémonie
Your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
Tes manières corrompues t'avaient finalement rendu aveugle
I can't remember your face anymore
Je ne me souviens plus de ton visage
Your mouth has changed
Ta bouche a changé
Your eyes don't look into mine
Tes yeux ne regardent plus dans les miens
The priest wore black on the seventh day
Le prêtre portait du noir le septième jour
And sat stone-faced while the building burned
Et est resté de marbre pendant que le bâtiment brûlait
I waited for you on the running boards
Je t'ai attendu sur les marchepieds
Near the cypress trees, while the springtime turned
Près des cyprès, pendant que le printemps se transformait
Slowly into autumn
Lentement en automne
Idiot wind
Vent idiot
Blowing like a circle around my skull
Soufflant comme un cercle autour de mon crâne
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol
Du Grand Coulee Dam au Capitole
Idiot wind
Vent idiot
Blowing every time you move your teeth
Soufflant chaque fois que tu bouges les dents
You're an idiot, babe
Tu es un idiot, chérie
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
C'est un miracle que tu saches encore comment respirer
I can't feel you anymore
Je ne peux plus te sentir
I can't even touch the books you've read
Je ne peux même pas toucher les livres que tu as lus
Every time I crawl past your door
Chaque fois que je rampe devant ta porte
I been wishin' I was somebody else instead
Je souhaite être quelqu'un d'autre à la place
Down the highway, down the tracks
Sur l'autoroute, sur les rails
Down the road to ecstasy
Sur la route de l'extase
I followed you beneath the stars
Je t'ai suivi sous les étoiles
Hounded by your memory
Hanté par ta mémoire
And all your ragin' glory
Et toute ta gloire furieuse
I been double-crossed now
J'ai été trahi maintenant
For the very last time and now I'm finally free
Pour la toute dernière fois et maintenant je suis enfin libre
I kissed goodbye the howling beast
J'ai embrassé adieu la bête hurlante
On the borderline which separated you from me
Sur la frontière qui te séparait de moi
You'll never know the hurt I suffered
Tu ne sauras jamais la douleur que j'ai subie
Nor the pain I rise above
Ni la douleur que je surmonte
And I'll never know the same about you
Et je ne saurai jamais la même chose de toi
Your holiness or your kind of love
Ta sainteté ou ton genre d'amour
And it makes me feel so sorry
Et ça me fait tellement de peine
Idiot wind
Vent idiot
Blowing through the buttons of our coats
Soufflant à travers les boutons de nos manteaux
Blowing through the letters that we wrote
Soufflant à travers les lettres que nous avons écrites
Idiot wind
Vent idiot
Blowing through the dust upon our shelves
Soufflant à travers la poussière sur nos étagères
We're idiots, babe
Nous sommes des idiots, chérie
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves
C'est un miracle que nous puissions même nous nourrir.
Someone's got it in for me
Qualcuno ce l'ha con me
They're planting stories in the press
Stanno piantando storie sulla stampa
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out quick
Chiunque sia, vorrei che la smettesse in fretta
But when they will I can only guess
Ma quando lo faranno, posso solo indovinare
They say I shot a man named Gray
Dicono che ho sparato a un uomo di nome Gray
And took his wife to Italy
E ho portato sua moglie in Italia
She inherited a million bucks
Ha ereditato un milione di dollari
And when she died it came to me
E quando è morta è venuto a me
I can't help it if I'm lucky
Non posso farci niente se sono fortunato
People see me all the time
La gente mi vede tutto il tempo
And they just can't remember how to act
E semplicemente non riescono a ricordare come comportarsi
Their minds are filled with big ideas
Le loro menti sono piene di grandi idee
Images and distorted facts
Immagini e fatti distorti
Even you, yesterday
Anche tu, ieri
You had to ask me where it was at
Hai dovuto chiedermi dove fosse
I couldn't believe after all these years
Non potevo credere che dopo tutti questi anni
You didn't know me better than that
Non mi conoscessi meglio di così
Sweet lady
Dolce signora
Idiot wind
Vento idiota
Blowing every time you move your mouth
Soffia ogni volta che muovi la bocca
Blowing down the back roads headin' south
Soffiando lungo le strade secondarie verso sud
Idiot wind
Vento idiota
Blowing every time you move your teeth
Soffia ogni volta che muovi i denti
You're an idiot, babe
Sei un idiota, tesoro
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
È un miracolo che tu sappia ancora come respirare
I ran into the fortune-teller
Ho incontrato l'indovina
Who said, "beware of lightning that might strike"
Che ha detto, "attento al fulmine che potrebbe colpire"
I haven't known peace and quiet
Non conosco la pace e la tranquillità
For so long I can't remember what it's like
Da così tanto tempo che non ricordo com'è
There's a lone soldier on the cross
C'è un soldato solitario sulla croce
Smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door
Fumo che esce da una porta di un vagone
You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done
Non lo sapevi, non pensavi che potesse essere fatto
In the final end he won the wars
Alla fine ha vinto le guerre
After losin' every battle
Dopo aver perso ogni battaglia
I woke up on the roadside
Mi sono svegliato sul bordo della strada
Daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Sognando a occhi aperti il modo in cui le cose a volte sono
Visions of your chestnut mare
Visioni della tua cavalla castana
Shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars
Attraversano la mia testa e mi fanno vedere le stelle
You hurt the ones that I love best
Hai ferito quelli che amo di più
And cover up the truth with lies
E copri la verità con le bugie
One day you'll be in the ditch
Un giorno sarai nel fosso
Flies buzzin' around your eyes
Mosche che ronzano attorno ai tuoi occhi
Blood on your saddle
Sangue sulla tua sella
Idiot wind
Vento idiota
Blowing through the flowers on your tomb
Soffiando attraverso i fiori sulla tua tomba
Blowing through the curtains in your room
Soffiando attraverso le tende nella tua stanza
Idiot wind
Vento idiota
Blowing every time you move your teeth
Soffia ogni volta che muovi i denti
You're an idiot, babe
Sei un idiota, tesoro
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
È un miracolo che tu sappia ancora come respirare
It was gravity which pulled us down
È stata la gravità che ci ha tirato giù
And destiny which broke us apart
E il destino che ci ha spezzato
You tamed the lion in my cage
Hai domato il leone nella mia gabbia
But it just wasn't enough to change my heart
Ma non è stato abbastanza per cambiare il mio cuore
Now everything's a little upside down
Ora tutto è un po' sottosopra
As a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
Di fatto le ruote si sono fermate
What's good is bad, what's bad is good
Ciò che è buono è cattivo, ciò che è cattivo è buono
You'll find out when you reach the top
Lo scoprirai quando raggiungerai la cima
You're on the bottom
Sei sul fondo
I noticed at the ceremony
Ho notato alla cerimonia
Your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
I tuoi modi corrotti ti avevano finalmente reso cieco
I can't remember your face anymore
Non riesco più a ricordare il tuo volto
Your mouth has changed
La tua bocca è cambiata
Your eyes don't look into mine
I tuoi occhi non guardano più nei miei
The priest wore black on the seventh day
Il prete indossava il nero il settimo giorno
And sat stone-faced while the building burned
E rimase impassibile mentre l'edificio bruciava
I waited for you on the running boards
Ti ho aspettato sulle pedane
Near the cypress trees, while the springtime turned
Vicino ai cipressi, mentre la primavera si trasformava
Slowly into autumn
Lentamente in autunno
Idiot wind
Vento idiota
Blowing like a circle around my skull
Soffiando come un cerchio attorno al mio cranio
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol

Soffia ogni volta che muovi i denti
You're an idiot, babe
Sei un idiota, tesoro
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
È un miracolo che tu sappia ancora come respirare
I can't feel you anymore
Non riesco più a sentirti
I can't even touch the books you've read
Non riesco nemmeno a toccare i libri che hai letto
Every time I crawl past your door
Ogni volta che striscio oltre la tua porta
I been wishin' I was somebody else instead
Desideravo di essere qualcun altro al posto tuo
Down the highway, down the tracks
Sulla strada, sui binari
Down the road to ecstasy
Sulla strada per l'estasi
I followed you beneath the stars
Ti ho seguito sotto le stelle
Hounded by your memory
Perseguitato dal tuo ricordo
And all your ragin' glory
E tutta la tua furia rabbiosa
I been double-crossed now
Sono stato tradito ora
For the very last time and now I'm finally free
Per l'ultima volta e ora sono finalmente libero
I kissed goodbye the howling beast
Ho baciato addio la bestia ululante
On the borderline which separated you from me
Sul confine che ti separava da me
You'll never know the hurt I suffered
Non saprai mai il dolore che ho sofferto
Nor the pain I rise above
Né il dolore che supero
And I'll never know the same about you
E non saprò mai lo stesso di te
Your holiness or your kind of love
La tua santità o il tuo tipo di amore
And it makes me feel so sorry
E mi fa sentire così dispiaciuto
Idiot wind
Vento idiota
Blowing through the buttons of our coats
Soffiando attraverso i bottoni dei nostri cappotti
Blowing through the letters that we wrote
Soffiando attraverso le lettere che abbiamo scritto
Idiot wind
Vento idiota
Blowing through the dust upon our shelves
Soffiando attraverso la polvere sui nostri scaffali
We're idiots, babe
Siamo idioti, tesoro
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves
È un miracolo che riusciamo ancora a nutrirci.
Someone's got it in for me
Ada yang membenciku
They're planting stories in the press
Mereka menanam cerita di pers
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out quick
Siapapun itu, aku berharap mereka berhenti segera
But when they will I can only guess
Tapi kapan mereka akan berhenti, aku hanya bisa menebak
They say I shot a man named Gray
Mereka bilang aku menembak seorang pria bernama Gray
And took his wife to Italy
Dan membawa istrinya ke Italia
She inherited a million bucks
Dia mewarisi sejuta dolar
And when she died it came to me
Dan ketika dia meninggal, itu menjadi milikku
I can't help it if I'm lucky
Aku tidak bisa menolong jika aku beruntung
People see me all the time
Orang-orang melihatku sepanjang waktu
And they just can't remember how to act
Dan mereka hanya tidak bisa ingat bagaimana harus bertindak
Their minds are filled with big ideas
Pikiran mereka dipenuhi dengan ide-ide besar
Images and distorted facts

Even you, yesterday

Kamu harus bertanya padaku di mana itu berada
I couldn't believe after all these years

You didn't know me better than that
Kamu tidak mengenalku lebih baik dari itu
Sweet lady
Wanita manis
Idiot wind
Angin idiot
Blowing every time you move your mouth
Berhembus setiap kali kamu membuka mulutmu
Blowing down the back roads headin' south
Berhembus di jalan belakang menuju selatan
Idiot wind
Angin idiot
Blowing every time you move your teeth
Berhembus setiap kali kamu menggerakkan gigimu
You're an idiot, babe
Kamu idiot, sayang
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
Sungguh heran kamu masih tahu cara bernapas
I ran into the fortune-teller
Aku bertemu dengan peramal
Who said, "beware of lightning that might strike"
Yang berkata, "hati-hati dengan petir yang mungkin menyerang"
I haven't known peace and quiet
Aku belum merasakan kedamaian dan ketenangan
For so long I can't remember what it's like
Sudah begitu lama aku tidak ingat rasanya
There's a lone soldier on the cross
Ada seorang prajurit sendirian di salib
Smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door
Asap mengepul keluar dari pintu gerbong
You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done
Kamu tidak tahu itu, kamu tidak berpikir itu bisa dilakukan
In the final end he won the wars
Pada akhirnya dia menang perang
After losin' every battle
Setelah kalah di setiap pertempuran
I woke up on the roadside
Aku terbangun di pinggir jalan
Daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Berangan-angan tentang bagaimana sesuatu kadang-kadang
Visions of your chestnut mare
Visi tentang kuda betina berwarna coklatmu
Shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars
Menembus kepalaku dan membuatku melihat bintang
You hurt the ones that I love best
Kamu menyakiti orang-orang yang paling aku cintai
And cover up the truth with lies
Dan menutupi kebenaran dengan kebohongan

And destiny which broke us apart
Dan takdir yang memisahkan kita
You tamed the lion in my cage
Kamu telah menjinakkan singa di dalam kandangku
But it just wasn't enough to change my heart
Tapi itu tidak cukup untuk mengubah hatiku
Now everything's a little upside down
Sekarang semuanya sedikit terbalik
As a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
Sebenarnya roda sudah berhenti
What's good is bad, what's bad is good
Apa yang baik adalah buruk, apa yang buruk adalah baik
You'll find out when you reach the top
Kamu akan mengetahuinya ketika kamu mencapai puncak
You're on the bottom

Dekat pohon cypress, sementara musim semi berubah
Slowly into autumn
