Lyrics
I’m the only girl alive in LA county
– Ngingukuphela kwentombazane ephilayo e-LA county
I’m the only one who sees (Ayy)
– Nginguye kuphela obona (Ayy)
I wake up every day in some new kind of suffering
– Ngivuka nsuku zonke ngihlupheka ngandlela thile
I’ve never known a day of peace
– Angikaze ngazi usuku lokuthula
I wonder if I ever left behind my body (Ooh)
– Ngiyazibuza ukuthi ngabe ngake ngashiya umzimba wami (Ooh)
Do you think they’d laugh at how I die?
– Ingabe ucabanga ukuthi bangahleka ngendlela engifa ngayo?
Or take a photo of my family in the lobby
– Noma uthathe isithombe somndeni wami egumbini lokwamukela izivakashi
The ceremony’s small inside
– Umkhosi omncane ngaphakathi
‘Cause I don’t know if I could sell out my own funeral (Ah-ah)
– Ngoba angazi ukuthi ngingakwazi yini ukuthengisa umngcwabo wami (Ah-ah)
At least not at this point in time
– Okungenani hhayi ngalesi sikhathi
And if I ever try to leave behind my body
– Futhi uma ngike ngazama ukushiya umzimba wami
At least I know it was never mine, it was never mine
– Okungenani ngiyazi ukuthi kwakungeyona eyami, kwakungeyona eyami
It was never mine
– Kwakungeyona neze eyami
It was never mine
– Kwakungeyona neze eyami
Well I’m the only girl alive in New York City
– Ngingukuphela kwentombazane ephilayo Enew York City
I left my wallet on the train
– Ngashiya isikhwama sami esitimeleni
Since I no longer even have a driver’s license
– Njengoba ngingasenayo ngisho nelayisense yokushayela
I guess that means I have no name (This is Halsey St)
– Ngicabanga ukuthi lokho kusho ukuthi anginalo igama (Lokhu Halsey St)
And I could run away to somewhere on the West Coast
– Futhi ngangingabalekela endaweni Ethile Ogwini Olusentshonalanga
And finally be a real life girl
– Futhi ekugcineni abe intombazane yangempela
Go take my organs and they’ll hang me from a bedpost
– Hamba uthathe izitho zami futhi bazongilengisa esigxotsheni sokulala
Sayin’ I was too soft for this world
– Ngathi ngangithambile kakhulu kuleli zwe
And they’d be right, because quite frankly, to be alive
– Futhi babeyoba abalungile, ngoba uma ngikhuluma iqiniso, ukuba baphile
It shouldn’t kill me every day, the way it does
– Akufanele kungibulale nsuku zonke, ngendlela engibulala ngayo
I don’t know what I did to have this fate I’m drenched in it
– Angazi ukuthi ngenzeni ukuze ngibe nalesi siphetho ngigcwele kuso
And I can’t even run from what I know
– Futhi angikwazi ngisho nokubalekela lokho engikwaziyo
My special talent isn’t writing, it’s not singing
– Ithalente lami elikhethekile alibhali, aliculi
It’s feeling everything that everyone alive feels every day
– Kunomuzwa wokuthi wonke umuntu ophilayo uzizwa nsuku zonke
Feels every day, feels every day, feels every day
– Uzizwa nsuku zonke, uzizwa nsuku zonke, uzizwa nsuku zonke
I think I’m special ’cause I cut myself wide open
– Ngicabanga ukuthi ngikhethekile ngoba ngazivula
As if it’s honorable to bleed
– Njengokungathi kufanelekile ukopha
But I’m not lucky and I know I wasn’t chosen
– Kodwa anginayo inhlanhla futhi ngiyazi ukuthi angikhethwanga
The world keeps spinnin’ without me
– Izwe liyaqhubeka liphenduka ngaphandle kwami
I told my mother I would die by twenty-seven
– Ngatshela umama ukuthi ngizokufa ngineminyaka engamashumi amabili nesikhombisa
And in a way I sort of did
– Futhi ngandlela thile ngakwenza
This thing I love has grown demanding and obsessive
– Le nto engiyithandayo iye yaba efuna izinto ngenkani futhi ethambekele kakhulu
And it wants more than I can give, than I can give, than I can give
– Futhi ifuna okungaphezu kwalokho engingakunikeza, kunalokho engingakunikeza, kunalokho engingakunikeza
Than I can give
– Kunalokho engingakunikeza
Well I’m the only girl alive in LA County
– Ngingukuphela kwentombazane ephilayo E-LA County
I’ve never known a day of peace
– Angikaze ngazi usuku lokuthula
I wake up every day and wish that I was different
– Ngivuka nsuku zonke futhi ngifisa sengathi ngabe ngihlukile
I look around and it’s just me
– Ngibheka nxazonke futhi yimi kuphela
It’s just me, it’s just me
– Yimi kuphela, yimi kuphela
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
– Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ooh, ayy
– U-ooh, u-ayy
Wee-ooh, wee-ooh, yeah-yeah
– I-wee-ooh, i-wee-ooh, i-yeah-yeah
Ah-ah-ah
– Ah-ah-ah
I’m the only one, the only one, it’s me
– Yimi kuphela, yimi kuphela, yimi
