Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
Your blades are sharpened with precision
– Izinduku zakho zicijile ngokunemba
Flashing your favorite point of view
– Flashing iphuzu lakho ozithandayo umbono
I know you’re waiting in the distance
– Ngiyazi ukuthi ulinde kude
Just like you always do, just like you always do
– Njengoba nje nenza njalo, njengoba nje nenza njalo
Already pulling me in
– Kakade ngidonsela ngaphakathi
Already under my skin
– Kakade ngaphansi kwesikhumba sami
And I know exactly how this ends, I
– Futhi ngiyazi kahle ukuthi lokhu kuphelela kanjani, mina
Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed
– Ake ungivule ukuze nje ungibuke ngiphuma igazi
Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be
– Yeka ukuthi ngingubani ngoba ubungifuna ngibe ngubani
Don’t know why I’m hopin’ for what I won’t receive
– Angazi ukuthi kungani ngithemba lokho engingeke ngikuthole
Fallin’ for the promise of the emptiness machine
– Ukuwela esithembisweni somshini wokungabi nalutho
The emptiness machine
– Umshini wokungabi nalutho
Goin’ around like a revolver
– Ukuzungeza njengesibhamu
It’s been decided how we lose
– Kunqunywe ukuthi silahlekelwa kanjani
‘Cause there’s a fire under the altar
– Ngoba kunomlilo ngaphansi kwe-altare
I keep on lyin’ to, I keep on lyin’ to
– Ngiyaqhubeka ngiqamba amanga, ngiyaqhubeka ngiqamba amanga
Already pulling me in
– Kakade ngidonsela ngaphakathi
Already under my skin
– Kakade ngaphansi kwesikhumba sami
And I know exactly how this ends, I
– Futhi ngiyazi kahle ukuthi lokhu kuphelela kanjani, mina
Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed
– Ake ungivule ukuze nje ungibuke ngiphuma igazi
Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be
– Yeka ukuthi ngingubani ngoba ubungifuna ngibe ngubani
Don’t know why I’m hopin’ for what I won’t receive
– Angazi ukuthi kungani ngithemba lokho engingeke ngikuthole
Fallin’ for the promise of the emptiness machine
– Ukuwela esithembisweni somshini wokungabi nalutho
I only wanted to be part of something
– Ngangifuna nje ukuba yingxenye yento ethile
I only wanted to be part of, part of
– Ngangifuna nje ukuba yingxenye, ingxenye
I only wanted to be part of something
– Ngangifuna nje ukuba yingxenye yento ethile
I only wanted to be part of, part of
– Ngangifuna nje ukuba yingxenye, ingxenye
I only wanted to be part of something
– Ngangifuna nje ukuba yingxenye yento ethile
I only wanted to be part
– Ngangifuna ukuba yingxenye kuphela
I let you cut me open just to watch me bleed
– Ngikuvumele ungivule ukuze nje ungibuke ngiphuma igazi
Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be
– Yeka ukuthi ngingubani ngoba ubungifuna ngibe ngubani
Don’t know why I’m hopin’, so fuckin’ naive
– Angazi ukuthi kungani ngithemba, ngakho-ke ngiyisiphukuphuku
Fallin’ for the promise of the emptiness machine
– Ukuwela esithembisweni somshini wokungabi nalutho
The emptiness machine
– Umshini wokungabi nalutho
(I only wanted to be part of something)
– (Ngangifuna nje ukuba yingxenye yento ethile)
The emptiness machine, oh
– Umshini wokungabi nalutho, oh
(I only wanted to be part of)
– (Ngangifuna ukuba yingxenye)
The emptiness machine
– Umshini wokungabi nalutho
