Lyrics and translation
Original
Well, our faces all change from the cruelty of age. I still miss you.
In a dream, you forgave me, and I almost did it myself 'til I woke back up.
I'm always procrastinating, evading the job of going through them boxes in the attic.
As long as there in the dark, there's a flickering spark we revert.
I just wanna talk to you.
Wanna talk with my best friend.
Wanna let go of everything that I could. Wanna show the same to yours instead.
I wanna hurt with you.
Hurt with somebody who understands.
Have the strength to truly like myself, and have the love to take someone's hand.
I was down in the low lights getting hounded by moths and dickheads.
Your uncle came in. I geared up with one of my nose.
He was sovereign, kind as I self-flagellated and groveled.
Told me to come back, but I cheated and I scoobied.
Shrink to my old lick it all back to my brain. But I don't want an excuse for my mess. I just wanna talk to you.
Wanna talk with my best friend.
Wanna let go of everything that I could.
Wanna show the same to yours instead. I wanna hurt with you.
Hurt with somebody who understands.
Have the strength to truly like myself, and have the love to take someone's hand.
I wanna talk to you.
I wanna talk to you.
Oh, I just wanna talk to you.
Oh, I wanna talk to you. Oh, I wanna talk to you.
Oh, I wanna talk to you, talk to you.
Seven years wrapped in youth's green love.
Picked me up and soaked the cancer from my bones.
You were my lovely like a son he never had.
And I ate him out of house and home.
I have learned, and I will never stop learning.
My failures aren't a prize possession. I don't deserve to talk to you.
But I hope that I can root for you.
Give 'em hell, darling.
