Lyrics and translation
Original
-Do you have a friend called Saoirse? -Saoirse?
Flew too far from the nest, crossed the N11 to the park by the bench.
Felt like miles, but it was minutes to a vet.
Different from a child who would leg it every step that he got. Tossed the Gs to cops as the season to rot.
Every apple tree getting squeezed for a drop.
If that didn't work, we were fishing with the sharks. Didn't need a bait, just a mate with a lot of confidence.
I offered him a cash for a drag. Cigarettes, cough, and shit.
The last of our mind is necking cider on the tracks of the train. What's inside her is the masses of pain.
But when you're sixteen, you only care about your mates. I didn't care about my grades.
Minute past eight, I was late. Uh, yo, man, ha, uh, I was late!
The kids are screaming, "Saoirse! " But no one's seen her in a couple months.
She's still so young.
Is it so wrong? She need to go home.
It's just so long, so long. Uh, last child syndrome.
Yeah, guess the world didn't fit him. Best mistake you ever had. Cries for attention, but the adults are drinking.
I was bad as an infant, but sad as a man. Bad as in, I thought God was the plan.
Born to a land where the church and the lad was a small stroke. Made friends with the hobo outside the R4.
No-go places was my mate's 'cause he smoked those gold that he robbed from his ma when she spoke on the phone.
Yo, one just to try, two for the road, three, she would have noticed, and the four of us are smoked.
Boasted to bro, I flew like a crow. Trying to make a friend, but the past are a no.
Kids are screaming, -"Saoirse! " -Saoirse.
But no one's seen her in a couple months. She's still so young.
Is it so wrong? She need to go home.
It's just so long, so long.
Sometimes
I get lost on the way from school. And you have to be careful!
It was me.
Hey, guys, guys. Saoirse!
The kids are screaming, "Saoirse!
" But no one's seen her in a couple months. She's still so young. Is it so wrong?
She need to go home.
It's just so long, so long.
The kids are screaming, "Saoirse! " But no one's seen her in a couple months.
She's still so young.
Is it so wrong? She need to go home.
It's just so long, so long.
