Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
And the old religion humming in your veins
– Futhi inkolo endala ihlabelela emithanjeni yakho
Some animal instinct starting up again
– Ezinye izilwane ziqala kabusha
And I am wound so tightly, I hardly even breathe
– Futhi ngilimele kakhulu, angiphefumuli ngisho
You wonder why we’re hungry for some kind of release
– Uyazibuza ukuthi kungani silambele uhlobo oluthile lokukhululwa
So tired of being careful, so tired of being still
– Ukhathele kakhulu ukuqaphela, ukhathele kakhulu ukuba namanje
Give me something I can crush, something I can kill
– Nginike okuthile engingakuchoboza, okuthile engingakubulala
A lightning strike, a fallen tree
– Ukushaywa umbani, isihlahla esiwile
And I’m afraid, oh, don’t let it find me
– Futhi ngesaba, oh, ungangivumeli ukuba ngithole
But you can’t outrun yourself, you’ll see
– Kodwa awukwazi ukuzidlula wena, uzobona
And I’m powerless, oh, don’t remind me
– Futhi anginamandla, oh, ungangikhumbuzi
And it’s the old religion but the urge remains the same
– Futhi kuyinkolo endala kodwa isifiso sihlala sinjalo
Freedom from the body, freedom from the pain
– Ukukhululeka emzimbeni, ukukhululeka ebuhlungwini
And it’s your troubled hero back for season six
– Futhi iqhawe lakho elinenkinga emuva ngesizini yesithupha
When it’s at its darkest, it’s my favourite bit
– Lapho sekumnyama kakhulu, kuyingxenye engiyithandayo
And I am wound so tightly, I hardly even breathe
– Futhi ngilimele kakhulu, angiphefumuli ngisho
You wonder why we’re hungry for some kind of release
– Uyazibuza ukuthi kungani silambele uhlobo oluthile lokukhululwa
Watch me crawl on hands and knees
– Ngibuke ngikhasa ngezandla nangamadolo
And scratch at the door of heaven
– Futhi ukuklwebha emnyango wezulu
A lightning strike, a fallen tree
– Ukushaywa umbani, isihlahla esiwile
And I’m afraid, oh, don’t let it find me
– Futhi ngesaba, oh, ungangivumeli ukuba ngithole
But you can’t outrun yourself, you’ll see
– Kodwa awukwazi ukuzidlula wena, uzobona
And I’m powerless, I know, don’t remind me
– Futhi anginamandla, ngiyazi, ungangikhumbuzi
And it’s the old religion humming in your veins
– Futhi kuyinkolo endala ehlabelela emithanjeni yakho
Some animal instinct starting up again
– Ezinye izilwane ziqala kabusha
And I am wound so tightly, I hardly even breathe
– Futhi ngilimele kakhulu, angiphefumuli ngisho
You wonder why we’re hungry for some kind of release
– Uyazibuza ukuthi kungani silambele uhlobo oluthile lokukhululwa
A lightning strike (And it’s the old religion), a fallen tree
– Ukushaywa umbani (futhi kuyinkolo endala), isihlahla esiwile
And I’m afraid, oh, don’t let it find me
– Futhi ngesaba, oh, ungangivumeli ukuba ngithole
But you can’t outrun (And it’s the old religion) yourself, you’ll see
– Kodwa awukwazi ukubaleka (futhi kuyinkolo endala) ngokwakho, uzobona
And I’m powerless, oh, don’t remind me
– Futhi anginamandla, oh, ungangikhumbuzi
