about
Translations explores the best and worst of human connections. The song title refers to that all-too familiar scenario of communicating with someone, but not understanding what they are saying. Sometimes you just need a translation.
lyrics
I was lost and couldn’t find your light.
I’m sorry man, your head’s not on right.
You’re talking in circles.
It seems, to me, you talk like a machine.
But if you ever need a translation, please, come on, talk to me.
If you ever need a complication, please, I got what you need.
If you ever need an explanation, please, come on talk to me.
If you ever need a complication, please, I got what you need.
I was looking for something that could be louder than words.
An accident explodes the universe.
You’re caught inside the system.
It seems, to me, you’re caught inside a dream.
But if you ever need a translation, please, come on, talk to me.
If you ever need a complication, please, I got what you need.
If you ever need an explanation, please, come on talk to me.
If you ever need a complication, please, I got what you need.
You send devils into fight your battles.
Your anxiety levels are peaking out at an all-time high.
You feed your people to a power struggle,
You are entirely drivel, and I don’t want this old life anymore.
I was lost for so long.
Forgot where I was from.
I couldn’t speak until you came along.
But if you ever need a translation, please, come on, talk to me.
If you ever need a complication, please, I got what you need.
If you ever need an explanation, please, come on talk to me.
If you ever need a complication, please, I got what you need.
