Lyrics and translation
Original
And tell me where does the time really go?
Tell me what is this moment we're all waiting for?
The wasteland's so barren, a dead zone where nothing can grow.
I swear I have been here before.
Pleading for something till my throat is sore.
Standing in water, surprising before I was born.
And dying alone and suffocate.
Choking on everything we made. Burning through each day.
I swear to God this can't wait one more minute, one more day. I feel the ground shaking underneath me.
There's a lot here at stake if you're hearing what I'm saying.
Just nod if you understand me. Just nod if you understand me.
Expecting to grow to infinity.
It's like building a boat designed to sink. Are you saving the world so desperately?
Or are you holding a gun demanding peace?
Because the line that is drawn between nightmares and dreams is thin like a razor in a world that's asleep.
Oh, when do we smile, yeah, and when do we weep? I swear to God this can't wait one more minute, one more day.
I feel the ground shaking underneath me.
There's a lot here at stake if you're hearing what I'm saying. Just nod if you understand me.
Just nod.
If you think it's going all too fast. Oh, just nod.
If you think that maybe this can last.
Oh, just nod.
I swear to God this can't wait one more minute, one more day.
I feel the ground shaking underneath me.
There's a lot here at stake if you're hearing what I'm saying. Just nod if you understand me. Oh, just nod.
Just nod.
Oh, oh, yeah, just nod.
