[English]

I'm kinda numb

It's so distorted

You left me here with

This damage that you caused

My tortured faces

Those fucked up places

In my memories

None of them I've lost

But

I haven't been here long enough to know

Every time I feel this I just lose control

Such a cancer on the face of everything that's beautiful

I wish that this would just go

Go

It's kinda sick

I feel so dirty

I'm kinda tragic

Kinda insecure

But I know

That I'm the only

One that can fix

Whatever's wrong I'm sure

But

I haven't been here long enough to know

Every time I feel this I just lose control

Such a cancer on the face of everything that's beautiful

I wish that this would just go

Go

I feel so alone

From all I've become

I'll take you down

I feel so down

I'm water while you drown

You're lifted while I'm down

I'm cancer in your womb

I'm the needle in your spoon

But

I haven't been here long enough to know

Every time I feel this, I just lose control

Such a cancer on the face of everything that's beautiful

I wish that this would just go

Go

Just, just, just, just go, go, go

All these fucking lies

Lies

Lies

All your fucking lies

Lies

Lies

Lies

...

Key Grammar Structures

• I'm kinda numb

  ➔ Present simple of ‘to be’ (contraction)

  ➔ The word "I'm" is the contraction of "I am" and is used for the present simple.

• You left me here with this damage that you caused

  ➔ Past simple + defining relative clause (that you caused)

  ➔ The verb "left" is in the past simple, and "that you caused" is a defining relative clause describing "damage".

• I haven't been here long enough to know

  ➔ Present perfect negative + infinitive of purpose (to know)

  ➔ "haven't been" is the negative present perfect of "be", and the infinitive "to know" expresses the purpose of staying "long enough".

• Every time I feel this I just lose control

  ➔ Zero conditional (present simple + present simple) + adverb "just"

  ➔ "Every time" introduces a habitual condition; both verbs "feel" and "lose" are in the present simple. "just" emphasizes the immediacy of the loss.

• I wish that this would just go

  ➔ Wish + would (subjunctive for unreal present)

  ➔ "wish" expresses a desire, and "would go" uses the modal "would" to talk about something that is not happening now.

• I'm the only one that can fix whatever's wrong

  ➔ Relative clause with modal verb (that can fix)

  ➔ "that can fix" is a defining relative clause; "can" is a modal verb showing ability.

• I'm water while you drown

  ➔ Contrast with while (subordinating conjunction)

  ➔ "while" introduces a clause that happens at the same time, but here it shows a stark contrast between "I'm water" and "you drown".

• All these fucking lies

  ➔ Demonstrative determiner + plural noun phrase + adjective (intensifier)

  ➔ "All" is a demonstrative determiner modifying "these"; together they specify a plural noun "lies" that is intensified by the vulgar adjective "fucking".
