Origineel
[Verse 1]
I do not know why I would go
In front of you and hide my soul
‘Cause you’re the only one who knows it
Yeah, you’re the only one who knows it
And I will hide behind my pride
I don’t know why I think I can lie
‘Cause there’s a screen on my chest
Yeah there’s a screen on my chest
[Chorus]
I’m standing in front of you
I’m standing in front of you
I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
I’m standing in front of you
Oh, I’m standing in front of you
I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
[Verse 2]
I can’t see past my own nose
I’m seeing everything in slo-mo
Look out below crashing down to the ground
Just like a vertical locomotive
That’s a train
Am I painting the picture that’s in my brain?
A train from the sky
Locomotive, my motives are insane
My flow’s not great, okay
I conversate with people
Who know if I flow on a song I’ll get no radio play
While you’re doing fine
There’s some people and I
Who have a really tough time getting through this life
So excuse us while we sing to the sky
[Chorus]
I’m standing in front of you
I’m standing in front of you
I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
I’m standing in front of you
Oh I’m standing in front of you
Oh I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
[Bridge]
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken people, oh
We’re broken people, oh, yeah
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken people, oh
We’re broken people, oh, yeah
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken people, oh
We’re broken people, oh, yeah
[Chorus]
I’m standing in front of you
I’m standing in front of you
I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
I’m standing in front of you
Oh, I’m standing in front of you
Oh, I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
Vertaling
[Verse 1]
Ik weet niet waarom ik zou gaan
Voor jou en mijn ziel verbergen
‘Cause you’re the only one who knows it
Ja, jij bent de enige die het weet
And I will hide behind my pride
Ik weet niet waarom ik denk dat ik kan liegen
‘Cause there’s a screen on my chest
Yeah there’s a screen on my chest
[refrein]
I’m standing in front of you
I’m standing in front of you
I’m trying to be so cool
Alles samen proberen zo cool te zijn
I’m standing in front of you
Oh, ik sta voor je
I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
[Verse 2]
I can’t see beyond my own nose
I’m seeing everything in slo-mo
Look out below crashing down to the ground
Just like a vertical locomotive
That’s a train
Schilder ik het beeld dat in mijn hoofd zit?
Een trein uit de lucht
Locomotief, mijn motieven zijn krankzinnig
Mijn flow is niet geweldig, oké
Ik praat met mensen
Die weten dat als ik een liedje flow, ik geen radio zal krijgen
Terwijl jij het goed doet
Er zijn mensen en ik
die het erg moeilijk hebben om door dit leven te komen
Dus excuseer ons terwijl we zingen tot de hemel
[Chorus]
I’m standing in front of you
I’m standing in front of you
I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
I’m standing in front of you
Oh I’m standing in front of you
Oh ik probeer zo cool te zijn
Everything together trying to be so cool
[Bridge]
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken people, oh
We’re broken people, oh, yeah
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken people, oh
We’re broken people, oh, yeah
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken
We’re broken people, oh
We’re broken people, oh, yeah
[Chorus]
I’m standing in front of you
I’m standing in front of you
I’m trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool
I’m standing in front of you
Oh, ik sta voor je
Oh, ik probeer zo cool te zijn
Everything together trying to be so cool
