Ingoma
Please, open the door
– Nceda uvule umnyango
Nothing is different, we’ve been here before
– Akukho nto yahlukile, besilapha ngaphambili
Pacing these halls, trying to talk
– Ukupaka ezi holo, ukuzama ukuthetha
Over the silence
– About silencing
And pride sticks out his tongue
– Kwaye ikratshi linamathela ulwimi lwakhe
Laughs at the portrait that we become
– Ukuhleka umzobo esiba
Stuck in a frame, unable to change
– Ukuma kwisakhelo, awukwazi ukutshintsha
I was wrong
– Ndandiphosakele
I’m late, but I’m here right now
– I’m late, but i’m okay now
Though, I used to be romantic
– Mna kuba romanticcomment
I forgot somehow
– Ndilibele ngandlel ithile
Time can make you blind
– Ixesha linokukwenza ube yimfama
But I see you now
– Ndibona wena ngoku
As we’re laying in the darkness
– Njengoko silele ebumnyameni
Did I wait too long
– Ngaba ndilinde ixesha elide
To turn the lights back on?
– Indlela yokukhanyisa izibane?
Here, stuck on a hill
– Lapha, ubambelele entabeni
Outsiders inside the home that we built
– Home ezoyolo sizakhele indlu
The cold settles in, it’s been a long
– Freezes, it’s been away too long
Winter of indifference
– Ubusika bokungakhathali
And maybe you love me, maybe you don’t
– Kwaye mhlawumbi uyandithanda, mhlawumbi awundithandi
Maybe you’ll learn to and maybe you won’t
– Mhlawumbi uya kufunda kwaye mhlawumbi awuyi
You’ve had enough, but I won’t give up
– Wena wawungenzenjani kodwa soze ndinikezele
On you
– Kuwe
I’m late, but I’m here right now
– I’m late, but i’m okay now
And I’m trying to find the magic
– Ndifuna umlingo
That we lost somehow
– Ukuba silahlekile ngandlela thile
Maybe I was blind
– Mhlawumbi bendiyimfama
But I see you now
– Ndibona wena ngoku
As we’re laying in the darkness
– Njengoko silele ebumnyameni
Did I wait too long
– Ngaba ndilinde ixesha elide
To turn the lights back on?
– Indlela yokukhanyisa izibane?
I’m late, but I’m here right now
– I’m late, but i’m okay now
Is there still time for forgiveness?
– Ngaba kusekho ixesha lokuxolela?
Won’t you tell me how?
– Ungandixeleli ukuba njani?
I can’t read your mind
– Andikwazi ukufunda ingqondo yakho
But I see you now
– Ndibona wena ngoku
As we’re layin’ in the darkness
– Njengoko sihamba ebumnyameni
Did I wait too long
– Ngaba ndilinde ixesha elide
To turn the lights back on?
– Indlela yokukhanyisa izibane?
I’m here right now
– Ndilapha ngoku
Yes, I’m here right now
– Yes, yes, i’m here now
Looking for forgiveness
– Ukufuna uxolelo
I can see
– Ndiyabona
As we’re laying in the darkness
– Njengoko silele ebumnyameni
Yes, we’re laying in the darkness
– Yes, we’re doomed into darkness
Did I wait too long
– Ngaba ndilinde ixesha elide
To turn the lights back on?
– Indlela yokukhanyisa izibane?
