Tu nunca me entenderàs



Never Is A Promise
Fiona Apple


You'll never see the courage I know

Its colors' richness won't appear within your view

I'll never glow the way that you glow

Your presence dominates the judgements made on you


But as the scenery grows I see in different lights

The shades and shadows undulate in my perception

My feelings swell and stretch I see from greater heights

I understand what I am still too proud to mention, to you


You'll say you understand

But you don't understand

You'll say you'll never give up seeing eye to eye

But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie


You'll never touch these things that I hold

The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own

You'll never feel the heat of this soul

My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown to you


You'll say, "Don't fear your dreams,"

It's easier than it seems

You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high

But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie


You'll never live this life that I live

I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night

You'll never hear the message I give

You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight


But as the scenery grows I see in different lights

The shades and shadows undulate in my perception

My feelings swell and stretch I see from greater heights

I realize what I am now too smart to mention, to you


You'll say you understand

You'll never understand

I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why

I don't know what to believe in

You don't know who I am

You'll say I need appeasing when I start to cry

But never is a promise and I'll never need a lie
