Lyrics
I left home and moved to Brooklyn where my boyfriend had a place
– Domum discessi et Ad Brooklyn commotus sum ubi amicus meus locum habuit
And he had track marks on his arms but had the most angelic face
– Et in semita marcas armis maxime autem angelicus faciem
I watched my friends die before twenty-one, and now I’m twenty-eight
– Vidi amicos meos ante viginti unum mori, et nunc viginti octo sum
I’m at the doctor’s every day, because I can’t stop losing weight
– Quotidie apud medicum sum, quia pondus amittere non possum
And now I’m the one with needles in my arms and in my legs
– Nunc autem ego sum unus acus in brachiis meis et cruribus
I’m making jokes about the blood tests, and I’m plannin’ my estate
– Iocos facio circa sanguinem probat, et sum plannin praedium meum
And I don’t wanna blame the child, but I have to speculate
– Et non vis reprehendere puerum, sed habeo speculari
If this could all just be an answer to those prayers that came delayed
– Si haec omnia iusta esse possunt illis precibus quae morata sunt respondere
Because I never would have said it if I knew I’d have to wait
– Quia numquam esset dixit si scirem vellem habere expectare
Until the moment I was happy, then it all disintegrates, and I’m singin’
– Usque ad momentum laetus eram, tunc omnes dissoluti sunt, et cantus sum’
“Please, God, I don’t wanna be sick
– “Deus, Ne derelinquas me, ne despicias me
And I don’t wanna hurt, so get it over with quick
– Et non quis dolorem et quidem
Please, God, I wanna be loved
– O Signor, per cortesia
Don’t wanna be somebody that you’re tryna get rid of
– Non vis esse aliquem quod es tryna tollendum
Please, God, I don’t wanna be sick
– Et Deus, qui non vult male
And I don’t wanna hurt, so get it over with quick
– Et non quis dolorem et quidem
Please, God, I wanna be loved
– O Signor, per cortesia
I don’t wanna be somebody you’re tryna get rid of”
– Non vis esse aliquem tryna removere”
Thank you
– Grazie
