Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I wanna kiss you when I hate you and then leave instead
– E hiahia ana ahau ki te kihi i a koe ina kino ahau ki a koe kātahi ka haere atu
I wanna kill you, then I call you and say, “Get in my bed”
– E hiahia ana ahau ki te patu ia koe, ka karanga ahau ki a koe, ka mea, “Haere i roto i toku moenga”
Been a full year now and we both know that it’s bound to end
– He tau tonu inaianei ā e mōhio ana mātau e rua ka mutu
But kinda like just how hot it gets
– Engari he rite tonu ki te wera o te wera
So stay for the night
– Na noho mo te po
It’ll bury the crime
– Ka tanu i te hara
Tell me a lie
– Korero mai ki ahau he teka
It’ll buy us some time
– Ka hokona e ia etahi wa
Oh, one more minute, it all burns down
– Aue, kotahi atu meneti, ka mura katoa
They’re all telling us to get out
– E mea katoa ana rātou kia puta atu tātou
But you and I, and I
– Ko koe, ko au, ko au
We’d keep living in a burning house
– Ka noho tonu mātou ki tētahi whare e tahuna ana
Might be crazy to stick this out
– Kia haurangi ki te piri i tenei i roto i
But we can’t see all the flames around
– Engari kaore e taea e tatou te kite i nga mura katoa a tawhio noa
You and I, and I
– Ko koe, ko au, ko au
We’re just dancing to the siren sounds
– E kanikani noa ana mātou ki ngā oro o te pūoro
I can get real cold when I need you, and you don’t show up
– Ka taea e au te tino makariri ina hiahia ahau ki a koe, a kaore koe e whakaatu
You can get cocky when you want me, and I say, “I’m done”
– Ka taea e koe te whakapehapeha ina hiahia koe ki ahau, ka mea ahau, “kua oti ahau”
Been a full year now, and we both know it’s not good for us
– He tau tonu inaianei, a e mohio ana maua e rua ehara i te mea pai mo matou
But we both love the smoke in our lungs
– Engari e aroha ana tātou ki te paowa i roto i ō tātou kōhauhau
So stay for the night
– Na noho mo te po
It’ll bury the crime
– Ka tanu i te hara
Tell me a lie
– Korero mai ki ahau he teka
It’ll buy us some time
– Ka hokona e ia etahi wa
Oh, one more minute, it all burns down
– Aue, kotahi atu meneti, ka mura katoa
They’re all telling us to get out
– E mea katoa ana rātou kia puta atu tātou
But you and I, and I
– Ko koe, ko au, ko au
We’d keep living in a burning house
– Ka noho tonu mātou ki tētahi whare e tahuna ana
Might be crazy to stick this out
– Kia haurangi ki te piri i tenei i roto i
But we can’t see all the flames around
– Engari kaore e taea e tatou te kite i nga mura katoa a tawhio noa
You and I, and I
– Ko koe, ko au, ko au
We’re just dancing to the siren sounds
– E kanikani noa ana mātou ki ngā oro o te pūoro
Siren sounds
– Ngā oro o te pūoro
Siren sounds
– Ngā oro o te pūoro
Siren, siren
– He pūoro, he pūoro
Siren sounds
– Ngā oro o te pūoro
Oh, one more minute, it all burns down
– Aue, kotahi atu meneti, ka mura katoa
They’re all telling us to get out
– E mea katoa ana rātou kia puta atu tātou
But you and I, and I
– Ko koe, ko au, ko au
We’d keep living in a burning house
