Isolation – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I lay the girl behind the glass, so she tell me what she seen in her eyes.

You been making a fool of me, babe

But you're too proud to even say you're sorry.

I'm just so glad that I can see

through all your bullshit, baby.

So glad that I'm alive

and you lost your hold on me.

Oh, I lost your hold on me

Oh, I lost your hold on me.

And you, bye-bye.

And he, yeah.

What goes around will come around.

So sleep the one I opened now.

That's ain't what you want, baby.

You should have known the devil's tongue.

Soon enough you're gonna learn.

That's ain't what you want, baby.

He lost, with your nose held high.

Costing me a girl,

But you're not my guy.

It's not like say love.

So don't try to stop me.

Now I'm running fast, I'm running far away from your bye-bye.

Far away from your bye-bye.

Key Grammar Structures

• You been making a fool of me, babe

  ➔ Present Perfect Continuous (informal omission)

  ➔ Omits "have" ("You've been"). Informal speech where "been" directly follows the subject to emphasize ongoing past actions.

• But you're too proud to even say you're sorry.

  ➔ "too + adjective + to-infinitive" structure

  ➔ Expresses excessive quality preventing an action. "Too proud" creates impossibility for "saying sorry".

• I'm just so glad that I can see through all your bullshit, baby.

  ➔ "so... that" + phrasal verb "see through"

  ➔ "So glad that" shows intensity of emotion leading to realization. "See through" means to recognize deception.

• What goes around will come around.

  ➔ Proverb with simple present + simple future

  ➔ Universal truth expressed through present tense ("goes"), future consequence ("will come"). Karma concept.

• You should have known the devil's tongue.

  ➔ Modal verb "should" + perfect infinitive

  ➔ Expresses criticism about past actions. "Should have known" implies failure to act wisely.

• Soon enough you're gonna learn.

  ➔ Future with "gonna" + adverb "enough"

  ➔ "Gonna" = informal "going to" for future prediction. "Soon enough" emphasizes inevitability.

• Costing me a girl, But you're not my guy.

  ➔ Present participle clause + contrast with "but"

  ➔ "Costing" shows simultaneous consequence. "But" contrasts the relationship (not my guy) with the damage caused.

• Now I'm running fast, I'm running far away from your bye-bye.

  ➔ Present continuous + phrasal verb "run away"

  ➔ Present continuous ("I'm running") emphasizes current escape action. "Run away" means to flee physically/emotionally.
