Headlights (original)

You told your tales with pictures
I tried to make it seem good
I borrowed the heart of a preacher
And believed as hard as I could
You don’t know how much I worked there
You don’t know the risk I took
You hardly, hardly saw me
Behind the mirror round my neck
Caught in your Headlights
I had to close my eyes
Caught in your Headlights
I had so little time
Caught in your Headlights
I couldn’t turn back
I was never myself
I was you
I forgot
You sold your smiles untroubled
Your light was on every face
You were too young to know that it mattered
That every time someone must pay
I bought your every word then
I didn’t have my side
I was too old to learn my first lesson
So I dance with tied hands in mind
Caught in your Headlights
I had to close my eyes
Caught in your Headlights
I had so little time
Caught in your Headlights
I couldn’t turn back
I was never myself
I was you
I forgot

(traducción)

Contaste tus cuentos con imágenes
Traté de hacer que pareciera bueno
Tomé prestado el corazón de un predicador
Y creí tan fuerte como pude
No sabes cuánto trabajé allí.
No sabes el riesgo que tomé
Apenas, apenas me viste
Detrás del espejo alrededor de mi cuello
Atrapado en tus faros
tuve que cerrar los ojos
Atrapado en tus faros
tuve tan poco tiempo
Atrapado en tus faros
no podía dar marcha atrás
nunca fui yo mismo
Yo era tu
Me olvidé
Vendiste tus sonrisas sin problemas
Tu luz estaba en cada rostro
Eras demasiado joven para saber que importaba
Que cada vez que alguien debe pagar
Compré cada una de tus palabras entonces
no tenia mi lado
Era demasiado mayor para aprender mi primera lección
Así que bailo con las manos atadas en mente
Atrapado en tus faros
tuve que cerrar los ojos
Atrapado en tus faros
tuve tan poco tiempo
Atrapado en tus faros
no podía dar marcha atrás
nunca fui yo mismo
Yo era tu
Me olvidé
