Lyrics and translation

Original

Walking down the street with my shadow under me.
Talking with the dogs about who I wanna be. Son of a bitch, call me soft, call me weak.
I'm gonna fuck with the city and dance off the beat. Don't you understand that there's never been a plan?
I just wanna join the band and go to sleep in the van. Hey, don't you understand?
I'd rather sleep in the stands than have to talk to the man about the money that I didn't make.
But then they told me to give up, so tonight I'm gonna burn them down.
I'm not that delicate, delicate.
I'm gonna tear down their side of town.
They tried to throw me back out again, but God, I kept pushing.
I screamed until my voice went raw. That's exactly what I'm here for.
Then they kicked me back to the ground, so tonight I'm gonna burn them down.
Taking my sweet time and reading the street signs. Starting a fire down the New
Jersey coastline.
I thought about dying just a couple of times, but I guess it's unproductive, so let's say I'm fine.
Don't you understand that there's never been a plan? I just wanna join the band and go to sleep in the van.
Hey, don't you understand?
I'd rather sleep in the stands than have to talk to the man about the money that I didn't make.
But then they told me to give up, so tonight I'm gonna burn them down. I'm not that delicate, delicate.
I'm gonna tear down their side of town.
They tried to throw me back out again, but God, I kept pushing.
I screamed until my voice went raw. That's exactly what I'm here for.
Then they kicked me back to the ground, so tonight I'm gonna burn them down.
Alright.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
I'm not running the other way. Yeah, you're gonna feel this someday. And
I'll scream until there's nothing left. 'Cause I got nothing but time, and. . .
And if you wanna try to make me bleed, well, then, baby, I'm just gonna bleed.
You tried to kill the light in me, 'cause you could never see it, but one, two, one, two, three, four.
I'm not that delicate, delicate. I'm gonna tear down their side of town.
They tried to throw me back out again, but God, I kept pushing.
I screamed until my voice went raw. That's exactly what I'm here for.
Then they kicked me back to the ground, so tonight I'm gonna burn them down.
I'm not that delicate, delicate. I'm gonna burn down your side of town.
You tried to throw me back out again. Motherfucker, bring it on right now.
I screamed until my voice went raw. Oh God, that's exactly what I'm here for.
Then they kicked me back to the ground, so tonight I'm gonna burn them down.
