Mito
Open my legs, lie down with death
– Fungua miguu yangu, lala na kifo
We kiss, we sigh, we sweat
– Tunabusu, tunaugua, tunatoa jasho
His blackberry mouth stains my nightgown
– Kinywa chake cha blackberry huchafua vazi langu la usiku
I pull him close
– Ninamvuta karibu
Wrap my legs around and it tastes like life
– Funga miguu yangu na ina ladha kama maisha
I twist, I bite
– Ninapotosha, ninauma
The foxes chatter in the night
– Mbweha huzungumza usiku
Show me the way
– Nionyeshe njia
This feeling leads
– Hisia hii inaongoza
The ache, the kick, the need
– Maumivu, teke, hitaji
Show me the way
– Nionyeshe njia
This feeling leads
– Hisia hii inaongoza
The ache, the kick, the need
– Maumivu, teke, hitaji
A shimmering landscape, I widen my eyes
– Mazingira yenye kung’aa, ninapanua macho yangu
Can I keep all this beauty forever inside?
– Ninaweza kuweka uzuri huu wote milele ndani?
I tear off my nightgown and run naked through the town
– Ninararua nguo yangu ya kulalia na kukimbia uchi kupitia mji
Run through rain, run through fog
– Kukimbia kupitia mvua, kukimbia kupitia ukungu
Taking consolation in cats and dogs and things that cannot speak
– Kuchukua faraja katika paka na mbwa na mambo ambayo hayawezi kuzungumza
Ran to the ancestral plane, but they all showed up drunk and insane
– Walikimbilia kwenye ndege ya mababu, lakini wote walijitokeza wakiwa wamelewa na wazimu
When I asked what I could offer them
– Nilipouliza ni nini ningeweza kuwapa
They said, “Gin and tonic or lithium”
– Walisema, ” Gin na tonic au lithiamu”
I asked, “Which way should I go?”
– Niliuliza, ” ni lazima niende njia gani?”
Through cigarette smoke, they said
– Kupitia moshi wa sigara, walisema
“Child, how would we know?”
– “Mtoto, tungejuaje?”
Show me the way
– Nionyeshe njia
This feeling leads
– Hisia hii inaongoza
The ache, the kick, the need
– Maumivu, teke, hitaji
Show me the way
– Nionyeshe njia
This feeling leads
– Hisia hii inaongoza
The ache, the kick, the need
– Maumivu, teke, hitaji
Desire beyond reason
– Tamaa zaidi ya sababu
Ruinous thing
– Kitu cha uharibifu
A stranger came to my door
– Mgeni alikuja mlangoni mwangu
And I welcomed him in
– Na nikamkaribisha ndani
My feet are bleeding
– Miguu yangu inavuja damu
But I cannot stop, I have many, many miles
– Lakini siwezi kuacha, nina maili nyingi, nyingi
Yet to cross
– Bado kuvuka
I came to a clearing
– Nilikuja kwenye kusafisha
Full of wailing and keening
– Kamili ya kuomboleza na keening
A well of tears that never runs dry
– Kisima cha machozi ambacho hakikauki kamwe
Women said, “We’ve been waiting
– Wanawake walisema, ” tumekuwa tukingojea
Waiting to meet you, it’s only a matter of time”
– Kusubiri kukutana nawe, ni suala la muda tu”
Thrust my fists in the ground
– Piga ngumi zangu chini
And the earth made a moaning sound, oh, oh
– Na dunia ilitoa sauti ya kuomboleza, oh, oh
I could feel something shudder
– Ningeweza kuhisi kitu cha kutetemeka
Deeper, deeper down
– Zaidi, zaidi chini
And I met every monster from the bar to Broadway
– Na nilikutana na kila monster kutoka bar Hadi Broadway
And all their violent offers, I just turn them away
– Na matoleo yao yote ya vurugu, ninawageuza tu
And your threats and your promises, they don’t scare me
– Na vitisho vyako na ahadi zako, haziniogopi
After all, there’s nobody more monstrous than me (Woo)
– Baada ya yote, hakuna mtu mbaya zaidi kuliko mimi (Woo)
Than me (Woo)
– Kuliko mimi (Woo)
