Кровосток [Krovostok] [English translation]

[Intro]

Ay, ay, ay, a-a-ay

Sayonara Boy

Sayonara Boy

Sayonara Boy

Sayonara Boy

[Verse 1]

Initiative fucks the initiator

And everyone knows about this

That's exactly why, in our times

Everyone buys it for so much

All that's secret becomes apparent

Sooner or later, everyone has to kick the bucket

And after you, what's left is

An unfinished Americano and cigarette butts in the ashtray

I remember, how my teacher told me

That I won't make anything of myself

Those that studied well

They're, fuck, still studying

In my bag there's As, though I used to get Cs1

I wasn't the prettiest child

And now, it seems, I'm not all that bad

In any case, that's what they say

And they say a lot of shit about me (oh)

Most of it is shamelessly made up bitching

But I'm somehow not sad

[Verse 2]

Everything in life is relative

Nothing good, nothing bad, it's all approximate

My face on a can of Coke

Doesn't mean I'll love it all my life

[Verse 3]

I think what I want, I say what I want

You'll grow into it too2, if you're not an idiot

I'm just a living example of

The fact that you can achieve something on your own

Everyone bitches about their own problems3

Don't confuse high aspirations with high self-regard4

I'm not a theater act

[Refrain]

Fucking tired of everything (ay)

I'm fucking tired of everything (ay)

Even my own fucking self in the mirror

Fucking tired of that too (fucking tired of everything)

Fucking tired of everything (ay)

I'm fucking tired of everything (ay)

Even my own fucking self in the mirror

Fucking tired of that too (fucking tired of everything)

1. Russian grading system - pretty equivalent to some others, with 5 = A, 4 = B, 3 = C, 2 = family disgrace, 1 = getting disowned2. Accepting...concrit on this translation....blease3. Lit. "What hurts for someone, that's what they bitch about"4. Ha. Well, this is wordplay, and there's probably a better way to capture it; literally, this line means "Don't confuse high aspirations with arrogance", but the fun part here is that these words are very similar.
