Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
Son, take it from meHijo, tómalo de mí
it's in the little victorieses en las pequeñas victorias
that keep you shaking hands with defeat, yeahque te mantienen estrechando manos con la derrota, sí
son, I'll tell you realityhijo, te diré que la realidad
isn't all it's cracked up to beno es todo lo que parece ser
but the years go lightning fastpero los años pasan volando
that I just can't help butque simplemente no puedo evitar
See we believedVes, creíamos
it's okay to leaveque está bien irse
the words caught in your throatlas palabras atrapadas en tu garganta
but you knowpero sabes
that you're growing oldque estás envejeciendo
you always do what you're toldsiempre haces lo que te dicen
going up in smokey desapareces
and you're a ghost you know in the endy eres un fantasma que sabes que al final
you'll be walking the tightrope, walking the tightropeestarás caminando por la cuerda floja, caminando por la cuerda floja
Son, take it from meHijo, tómalo de mí
life's more than the floors of this factoryla vida es más que los pisos de esta fábrica
and working forty hoursy trabajar cuarenta horas
every single weekcada semana
son, I'll tell you realityhijo, te diré que la realidad
isn't living down on your kneesno es vivir de rodillas
but my life's gone in a flashpero mi vida se ha ido en un instante
and I just can't help buty simplemente no puedo evitar
See we believedVes, creíamos
it's okay to leaveque está bien irse
the words caught in your throatlas palabras atrapadas en tu garganta
but you knowpero sabes
that you're growing oldque estás envejeciendo
you always do what you're toldsiempre haces lo que te dicen
going up in smokey desapareces
and you're a ghost you know in the endy eres un fantasma que sabes que al final
you'll be walking the tightrope, walking the tightropeestarás caminando por la cuerda floja, caminando por la cuerda floja
Mouthfuls of rotting dynamiteBocados de dinamita podrida
mouthfuls of rotting dynamitebocados de dinamita podrida
you call this living a normal lifellamas a esto vivir una vida normal
we're not living a normal lifeno estamos viviendo una vida normal
We still believeSeguimos creyendo
it's okay to leaveque está bien irse
the words caught in your throatlas palabras atrapadas en tu garganta
but you knowpero sabes
that you're growing oldque estás envejeciendo
you always do what you're toldsiempre haces lo que te dicen
going up in smokey desapareces
and you're a ghost you know in the endy eres un fantasma que sabes que al final
you'll be walking the tightrope, walking the tightropeestarás caminando por la cuerda floja, caminando por la cuerda floja
We still believeSeguimos creyendo
it's okay to leaveque está bien irse
the words caught in your throatlas palabras atrapadas en tu garganta
but you knowpero sabes
that you'll be walking the tightropeque estarás caminando por la cuerda floja
you always do what you're toldsiempre haces lo que te dicen
going up in smokey desapareces
and you're a ghost you know in the endy eres un fantasma que sabes que al final
you'll be walking the tightrope, walking the tightropeestarás caminando por la cuerda floja, caminando por la cuerda floja
