Origineel
[Verse 1]
I got a year’s supply of capsules (capsules)
I got a bottle full of friends (full of friends, full of friends, full of friends)
They’re always right around (around)
To come show me the town (the town)
Delivered through a filtered lens
My doctor says I’m being reckless (reckless)
That quitting’s risky for my health (and I’ll fuck up my life real bad)
But if I had to choose (to choose)
I know I’d rather lose my life
Than have to lose myself
[Chorus]
Chemical angel
Comfort I crave
Comfort I crave
Comfort I crave
Don’t come around no more
I’m already saved
I’m already saved
I’m already saved
[Verse 2]
I’d like us to spend some alone time (just you and me)
But if I slide into a zone (down and then down, down and then down, down and then down, and then down, and then down, and then down)
Don’t take it personal (please don’t)
You gotta understand
My brain has got a mind of its own
I don’t know if I’m close to drowning (deeper than anybody on the planet has ever been under the sea)
Or if I’m finally free (gotta get up and fly, get up so high, I’ma get up higher than a speeding bullet up in the sky)
I touch my artery (and watch)
And watch my fingertips bob up and down like buoys at sea
[Chorus]
Chemical angel
Comfort I crave
Comfort I crave
Comfort I crave
Don’t come around no more
I’m already saved
I’m already saved
I’m already saved
Vertaling
[Verse 1]
I got a year’s supply of capsules (capsules)
I got a bottle full of friends (vol met vrienden, vol met vrienden, vol met vrienden)
They’re always right around (in de buurt)
To come show me the town (de stad)
Geleverd door een gefilterde lens
My doctor says I’m being reckless (roekeloos)
Dat stoppen riskant is voor mijn gezondheid (and I’ll fuck up my life real bad)
Maar als ik moest kiezen (to choose)
Ik weet dat ik liever mijn leven verlies
than having to lose myself
[refrein]
Chemische engel
Ik hunker naar comfort
Ik hunker naar comfort
Comfort I crave
Don’t come around no more
Ik ben al gered
Ik ben al gered
Ik ben al gered
[Verse 2]
I’d like us to spend some alone time (just you and me)
But if I slide into a zone (down and then down, down and then down, down and then down, and then down, and then down, and then down)
Don’t take it personal (please don’t)
Je moet begrijpen
Mijn hersenen hebben een eigen wil
I don’t know if I’m close to drowning (dieper dan iemand op de planeet ooit onder de zee is geweest)
Or if I’m finally free (gotta get up and fly, get up so high, I’ma get up higher than a speeding bullet up in the sky)
Ik raak mijn slagader aan (en kijk)
En kijk hoe mijn vingertoppen op en neer gaan als boeien op zee
[refrein]
Chemische engel
Comfort I crave
Comfort I crave
Comfort I crave
Don’t come around no more
Ik ben al gered
Ik ben al gered
Ik ben al gered
