Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
This room could be haunted, a vision to the blind
– Leli gumbi lingase lihanjelwe, umbono wezimpumputhe
Wishing sleep held me in her arms forever
– Ukulala okufisayo kwangibamba ezingalweni kuze kubeeverade
Shadows dance around, perfectly blurring up the lines
– Izithunzi ziyadansa, zifiphaze imigqa ngokuphelele
Hallucinations start to intertwine
– Ukubonwa ngeso lengqondo kuqala ukuhlangana
I open my eyes
– Ngivula amehlo ami
Her face lingers on the walls
– Ubuso bakhe buhlala ezindongeni
She’s stuck on rewind in my mind
– Unamathele engqondweni yami
I try to move on, but the past won’t leave my bed
– Ngizama ukuqhubeka, kodwa okwedlule ngeke kushiye umbhede wami
I hear it all the time like the wind between the chimes
– Ngikuzwa ngaso sonke isikhathi njengomoya ophakathi kwezingoma
Holding on to what we had together
– Ukubambelela kulokho esasinakho ndawonye
A single note of my persistent hopeless lullabies
– Inothi elilodwa lezingoma zami zokulala ezingenathemba eziphikelelayo
I know that I can’t sleep forever
– Ngiyazi ukuthi angikwazi ukulala kuze kubeeverade
I open my eyes
– Ngivula amehlo ami
Her face lingers on the walls
– Ubuso bakhe buhlala ezindongeni
She’s stuck on rewind in my mind
– Unamathele engqondweni yami
I try to move on, but the past won’t leave my bed
– Ngizama ukuqhubeka, kodwa okwedlule ngeke kushiye umbhede wami
I open my eyes
– Ngivula amehlo ami
Her face lingers on the walls
– Ubuso bakhe buhlala ezindongeni
She’s stuck on rewind in my mind
– Unamathele engqondweni yami
I try to move on, but the past won’t leave my bed
– Ngizama ukuqhubeka, kodwa okwedlule ngeke kushiye umbhede wami
