Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
Everybody dies, surprise, surprise
– Wonke umuntu uyafa, ukumangala, ukumangala
We tell each other lies, sometimes, we try
– Siyaqamba amanga, ngezinye izikhathi siyazama
To make it feel like we might be right
– Ukuze sizizwe sengathi singase sibe neqiniso
We might not be alone
– Singase singabi sodwa
Be alone
– Yiba wedwa
“Everybody dies”, that’s what they say
– “Wonke umuntu uyafa”, yilokho abakushoyo
And maybe in a couple hundred years
– Futhi mhlawumbe eminyakeni engamakhulu ambalwa
They’ll find another way
– Bazothola enye indlela
I just wonder why you’d wanna stay
– Ngiyazibuza nje ukuthi kungani ufuna ukuhlala
If everybody goes
– Uma wonke umuntu ehamba
You’d still be alone
– Usazoba wedwa
I don’t wanna cry, some days I do
– Angifuni ukukhala, ngezinye izinsuku ngiyakhala
But not about you
– Kodwa hhayi ngawe
It’s just a lot to think about the world I’m used to
– Kuningi nje engingakucabanga ngezwe engijwayele
The one I can’t get back
– Lowo engingakwazi ukubuyela kuye
At least not for a while
– Okungenani hhayi isikhashana
I sure have a knack for seeing life more like a child
– Nginekhono lokubona ukuphila njengengane
It’s not my fault, it’s not so wrong to wonder why
– Akulona iphutha lami, akulungile ukuzibuza ukuthi kungani
Everybody dies
– Wonke umuntu uyafa
And when will I?
– Futhi ngizokwenza nini?
You oughta know
– Kufanele wazi
That even when it’s time
– Ngisho nalapho sekuyisikhathi
You might not wanna go
– Ungase ungafuni ukuhamba
But it’s okay to cry
– Kodwa kulungile ukukhala
And it’s alright to fold
– Futhi kulungile ukugoqa
But you are not alone
– Kodwa awuwedwa
You are not unknown
– Wena akwaziwa
