Mantra - Quicksilver [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(VERSE 1)

YOU WERE SPEAKING ANOTHER LANGUAGE, THAT MY HEART WASN'T UNDERSTANDIN'
NOW SPEECH WAS BECOMING FRANTIC, WHAT CAN I SAY? I'M A ROMANTIC

IM ATTRACTED TO DISAPPOINTMENT, LIKE I PLANTED A FLY IN THE OINTMENT
JUST TOO PUNCTURE WHAT I ENJOY DOING WITH YOU IN THE MOMENT OF ANNOYANCE

IF IT EVER TOLD ME ANYTHING, IT'S I SHOULD NEVER LISTEN TO MY INNER VOICES
IF I EVER HOPED TO AVOID BEING A VICTIM OF ILL ADVISED CHOICES

POISON, SO PARANOID OF THE STRANGE NOISES
HOW THEY WERE PUT IN PLACE TO DESTROY US

I COULDN'T RECOGNIZE, I WAS CHOOSING TO EMPLOY THEM
IT'S ON ME, FOR MAKING THE WRONG MOVE

I WAS TAKING THE LONG WAY HOME AND I PUT IT ALL ON YOU
YOU WERE PAYING FOR MY MOOD, PRETTY SOON YOU WERE OUT OF COMMENTS SEE

YOU WERE DONE WITH ME, YOU TURNED
UNTIL THE BACK OF YOU, WAS THE ONLY THING I HAD IN FRONT OF ME


(HOOK)

THE MORE THAT I TRIED, TO HOLD YOU IN MY ARMS
THE MORE, YOU WOULD SLIP AWAY

IF ONLY I USED THE GRIP OF MY HEART
THEN PERHAPS YOU WOULD HAVE CHOSEN TOO STAY


(VERSE 2)

I WAS BY MYSELF, AND I DID IT BY MYSELF
THOUGHT I DIDN'T LOVE YOU, BUT I DID, I JUST DIDN'T LIKE MYSELF

SO I HAD TO FIND MYSELF, TRY TO RE-DEFINE MYSELF
READ THE FINE PRINTS SEE WHAT I'M MISSING REALLY RE-DESIGN MYSELF

I COULD NEVER CRY FOR HELP OR SEEK YOU OUT FOR GUIDANCE
FOR THE FEAR THAT YOU MIGHT RECOGNIZE WEAKNESS DISGUISED AS KINDNESS

AND THOSE SLEEPNESS NIGHTS REMIND ME, OF THAT PEACE YOU TRIED PROVIDIN
WHEN MY PEACE OF MIND WAS HIDING, I COULDN'T SEE MY EYES WERE BLINDED

YOU SAW DEEP INSIDE MY IRIS, WITNESSING MY VERY SOUL
LOOKING BEYOND ANYTHING I'D EVER BEEN ABLE TOO HOLD

YOU WERE BOLD, TAKING IT ALL IN
CLIMBED AND AFRAID OF THE FALLIN' BUT BY THE BREAK OF MORNING

YOU WERE MOURNING, I NEVER SAW YOUR WARNINGS
I KNOW WHEN I WAS IGNORING WHEN I WAS TOURING, AND WASN'T CALLING

WE WOULDN'T TALK ANYMORE UNTIL I GOT BACK HOME, IT WAS THEN I STARTED PREFORMING
THE STORM IN BETWEEN YOU AND I, WERE WAR-ING

NOW IT'S DO OR DIE, IT'S EITHER SELF SABOTAGE, OR SOCIAL SUICIDE


(HOOK)
