The Vaccines - No Hope [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Oh I could bore you with the truth
About an uneventful youth
Or you could get that rap from someone else
And I could make an observation
If you want the voice of a generation
But I’m too self absorbed to give it clout

[Pre-Chorus]
And I, I don’t really care about
Anybody else when I haven’t got my own life figured out
Cause when you’re young and bored and 24
And you don’t know who you are no more

[Chorus]
There's no hope
And it’s hard to come of age
I think it’s a problem
Does it ever go away?
I know, I am so self-obsessed
I guess, but there’s no hope
And I hope it’s just a phase
I’ll outgrow-oh-oh-oh

Oh I could look for inspiration
Find it in the charm of an english nation
But wouldn’t that be cheap and ill-informed
And I could bet you don’t believe me
If I said it came from deep within me
But I promise you I’m telling you the truth

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Well I wish that I was comfortable in my own skin
But the whole thing feels like an exercise
And trying to be someone I would rather not be
I tried to second guess if you would be approving
I find my life ever so moving
King, wide-eyed and unassuming, hope

There is no hope, but there’s desperately
No hope and there’s definitely
No hope if you don’t believe me
Oh, oh, oh
And there is no hope and there’s desperately
No hope, and there’s definitely
No hope if you don’t believe me
Oh, oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

There is no hope
I know it’s a problem
Does it ever go away?
I know, I am so self-obsessed
I guess, but there’s no hope
And I hope it’s just a phase
I’ll outgrow, oh, oh, oh
