Текст песни: I Forgot About Songs + перевод

To hear a song like that!

To have it spoon your sad little heart

It didn’t give me a better outlook on life

But it told me:

«I've been there too, and I turned it to art»

And that made all the difference to me

That made all the difference to me

And I forgot about songs

I forgot about what they are to me

I forgot how they hold me

How they soothe me and carry me

I forgot about violins

I forgot how they see me

Try me and taunt me

And how they finally breathe me

I forgot about chord changes

Where the bass tone stays intact

I forgot about drums and

Voices with a tendency to crack

When they make all the difference to me

They make all the difference to me

There was this September

When all broke loose

Turned out all my truths had worn thin

I dangled by a thread from within

But I heard a violin

«I'll hold you, my child»

The song said, and it did

It stroke my forehead with pale hands and

Slowly carried me to the bridge

And as the chorus arrived

I let go

Oh —

And you’re so young

And you’re so young

And you come up to me

And you tell me it helped you through

Something bad once happened

You say and you hang your head

But this song

It helped you through!

I get home and I kick my books

Fuck you, Knowledge

I was never on your team

I was never one of your fighters

I was born a romantic for a reason

Not to be loved

To be a songwriter
