تناقضات [Tanaqodat] [English translation]

Between love and other love

I love you

And between one said farewell

And another one that will come

I search for you here and there

As if the only time is yours

As if all the promises pour into your eyes

So how can I explain this feeling

that I have day and night?

And how do you come to mind like a dove?

when I'm with the most beautiful woman ever

I only have five minutes

to check up on you a bit,

complain about my troubles a bit

And curse life

curse all of life a little bit

I only need five minutes

To turn my whole life upside down, a bit

Tell me... tell me

Tell me... tell me... tell me

What do you call this lack of focus,

this feeling of being torn,

this long enduring torture?

And how can betrayal be a solution?

And how can hypocrisy be beautiful?

How... How... How?

I love you

even when I'm someone else's lover

And my tongue always slips

so I call your name

when I meant to call hers

And I feel I betray the truth

whenever I compare between

My longing for you and my longing for her

So what do you call this?

Schizophrenia?

Falling apart?

An escape?

A feeling of being lost?

A destruction?

A madness?

Tell me... tell me

Tell me... tell me... tell me

What do you call this lack of focus,

this feeling of being torn,

this long enduring torture?

And how can betrayal be a solution?

And how can hypocrisy be beautiful?

How... How... How?
