Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
I guess you never know
– Ngicabanga ukuthi awusoze wazi
Someone you think you know
– Othile ocabanga ukuthi uyamazi
Can’t see the knife when you’re too close, too close
– Awukwazi ukubona ummese uma useduze kakhulu, useduze kakhulu
It scars forever when
– It izibazi whenade lapho
Someone you called a friend
– Othile omshayele ucingo umngane
Shows you the truth can be so cold, so cold
– Ikukhombisa iqiniso kungaba abandayo kangaka, abandayo kangaka
I’d wipe the dirt off your name
– Ngingasula ukungcola egameni lakho
With the shirt off my back
– Nginehembe emhlane wami
I thought that you’d do the same
– Ngangicabanga ukuthi uzokwenza okufanayo
But you didn’t do that (Yeah)
– Kodwa awukwenzanga lokho (Yebo)
Said I’m the one who’s wanted
– Wathi nginguye owayefunwa
For all the fires you started
– Ngokuba yonke imililo owaqala
You knew the house was burning down
– Wayazi ukuthi indlu yayishisa
I had to get out
– Kwadingeka ngiphume
You led your saints and sinners
– Wahola abangcwele nezoni zakho
And fed ’em lies for dinner
– Futhi bondliwe amanga esidlweni sakusihlwa
You knew the house was burning down
– Wayazi ukuthi indlu yayishisa
And look at you now
– Futhi bheka wena manje
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
– (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) And look at you now
– (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) futhi ngikubheke manje
How do you sleep at night?
– Ulala kanjani ebusuku?
No one to hide behind
– Akekho ongacasha ngemuva
Betrayed every alibi you had, you had
– Ukhaphele yonke i-alibi owawunayo, wawunayo
You had every chance to make amends
– Wawunamathuba amaningi okubuyisana
Instead, you got drunk on bitterness
– Kunalokho, wadakwa ngenxa yokucasuka
And you still claim that you’re innocent, it’s sad
– Futhi usathi umsulwa, kuyadabukisa
That you
– Ukuthi wena
Said I’m the one who’s wanted
– Wathi nginguye owayefunwa
For all the fires you started
– Ngokuba yonke imililo owaqala
You knew the house was burning down
– Wayazi ukuthi indlu yayishisa
I had to get out
– Kwadingeka ngiphume
You led your saints and sinners
– Wahola abangcwele nezoni zakho
And fed ’em lies for dinner
– Futhi bondliwe amanga esidlweni sakusihlwa
You knew the house was burning down
– Wayazi ukuthi indlu yayishisa
(And look at you now)
– (Bheka manje)
Used to tell me you’d pray for me
– Wayevame ukungitshela ukuthi ungangithandazela
You were praying for my downfall
– Wawuthandazela ukuwa kwami
You were digging a grave for me
– Wawungigubhela ithuna
We were sharing the same four walls
– Sasihlanganyela izindonga ezine ezifanayo
Used to tell me you’d pray for me
– Wayevame ukungitshela ukuthi ungangithandazela
You were praying for my downfall
– Wawuthandazela ukuwa kwami
You were digging a grave for me
– Wawungigubhela ithuna
We were sharing the same four walls
– Sasihlanganyela izindonga ezine ezifanayo
And you
– Futhi wena
Said I’m the one who’s wanted
– Wathi nginguye owayefunwa
For all the fires you started
– Ngokuba yonke imililo owaqala
You knew the house was burning down
– Wayazi ukuthi indlu yayishisa
I had to get out
– Kwadingeka ngiphume
You led your saints and sinners
– Wahola abangcwele nezoni zakho
And fed ’em lies for dinner
– Futhi bondliwe amanga esidlweni sakusihlwa
You knew the house was burning down
– Wayazi ukuthi indlu yayishisa
(And look at you now)
– (Bheka manje)
Used to tell me you’d pray for me (Pray for me)
– Ngivame ukungitshela ukuthi ungangithandazela (Ngithandazele)
You were praying for my downfall (For my downfall)
– Nithandazela ukuwa kwami (Ukuwa kwami)
You were digging a grave for me
– Wawungigubhela ithuna
We were sharing the same four walls
– Sasihlanganyela izindonga ezine ezifanayo
Used to tell me you’d pray for me
– Wayevame ukungitshela ukuthi ungangithandazela
You were praying for my downfall
– Wawuthandazela ukuwa kwami
You were digging a grave for me
– Wawungigubhela ithuna
We were sharing the same four walls
– Sasihlanganyela izindonga ezine ezifanayo
And you
– Futhi wena
