Spit Syndicate - See Me Now [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
"I just want you to know how sorry we are
That things got so fucked up with us and..
We got into this thing with the best intentions, really."

[Bridge]
Yeah, alright
On the brink pourin' drinks into my new cup
Only time will tell, before my time is up
But one would be nice, so I don't stay inside too much
The confines of my mind can't find true love

[Verse One]
Still I walk around these low lit lanes like you don't miss
Scared of the open road, I lose focus
Crowd of a thousand eyes, I'm tryna' to get you to notice
Some would say it's hopeless
Somedays I psych myself up to call my dad
Never had someone I could call my dad
I ain't even have a home phone in the pad
I called on myself when all turned bad
Fame gave me the start and still I pay homage
Imagine if he never called that radio office
And I'm a writer, open mic - a train hopper
Find solace in the cloak of night, like grave robbers

[Hook]
And I'm off to a few, get invited
High by the clouds with a view with the lightning
Every time we fight you tell me I'm just like 'em
Listen wit' ya heart, baby close both eyes
Can you see me now?
Yeah
Can you see me now?
Your welcome, one day
Can you see me now? (X2)
Listen with your heart baby, close both eyes, can you see me now?

[Verse Two]
Do you remember me? Still here where I left ya
Can't seem to switch direction
Always seem to come up short
Even though we had the best intentions
White knuckles from the fist she's clenching
Telling me she heard enough
If you don't like the answers that I got for ya
Well maybe you should ask different questions
I heard they fell out wit' they label
No radio play, been unstable
Maybe wit' they time been wasteful
Let me break it down kid, get a plateful
Nick and Jimmy, them kids from the Syndicate
We bringing it back for the faithful
No rhyme could capture how grateful
But you can this tape, tape get a face-full

[Bridge]
Still I show no signs of relenting
Plus I got no time for repenting
Maybe its destined
Shit I'm a couple years shy of an intervention
Yeah
Set it off like riots in detention
Cigarette lighter to the bed springs
Now that I got your attention
Live from the insurrection

[Hook]
Can you see me now? (X2)
One day
Can you see me now?
Listen with your heart, baby close both eyes, can you see me now?

[Outro]
"Please, continue
You were saying something about best intentions?
What's the matter?
Oh you were finished?
Oh, well allow me to retort."
