Lyrics and translation

Original

Alles is totaal volkomen kut. Ik heb geen huis en ik ben blut.

Ben net begonnen, maar de tijd lijkt aardig op te raken.

Maar ik wil zingen over dingen die me blij maken van binnen.

Ik wil geen teksten over enkel maar ellende maken.

Soms denk ik: wow, was het nou maar zo.

Zoals ik me had voorgesteld, me eerst verteld, want dit had ik echt nooit voorspeld.

Wow, was het nou maar zo.

Vroeger leek het allemaal zo chic.

Mijn toekomstbeeld was mooi en ik had nog hoop en dromen. Dacht dat we er zouden komen.

Maar ik voel me zo bedrogen, zo naïef en voorgelogen.

Nu lijkt alles om me heen volledig vastgelopen.

Soms denk ik: wow, was het nou maar zo.

Zoals ik me had voorgesteld, me eerst verteld, want dit had ik echt nooit voorspeld.

Wow, was het nou maar zo.

Veel mooier, veel mooier in mijn hoofd.

Wow, was het nou maar zo.

Zoals ik me had voorgesteld, me eerst verteld, want dit had ik echt nooit voorspeld.

Wow, was het nou maar zo.

Was het nou maar. Was het nou maar.

Was het nou maar zo mooi.

Was het nou maar zo.

English translation

Everything is totally fucking shitty. I don't have a house and I'm broke.

Just started, but time seems to be running out.

But I want to sing about things that make me happy inside.

I don't want to write lyrics about just misery.

Sometimes I think: wow, if only it were like this.

Just as I had imagined, told me at first, because I really never predicted this.

Wow, if only it were like that.

It all used to seem so chic.

My vision of the future was bright and I still had hopes and dreams. Thought we would get there.

But I feel so cheated, so naive and lied to.

Now everything around me seems completely stuck.

Sometimes I think: wow, if only it were like this.

Just as I had imagined, told me at first, because I really never predicted this.

Wow, if only it were like that.

Much more beautiful, much more beautiful in my head.

Wow, if only it were like that.

Just as I had imagined, told me at first, because I really never predicted this.

Wow, if only it were like that.

If only. If only.

If only it were that beautiful.

If only it were like that.
