Translation of the song lyrics Cold Sober Moment - Gabrielle

Cold Sober Moment (original)

Bare ord, masse ord, eg har hørt det før
Ingen løfter så tom som de du gir
Hadd’eg vist at min sjel va i ferd me å dø
Hadd’eg eg vis alt eg burde og sku si
Trekker korteste strå, pakker ting å går
Har fått nokk av å famle i blinde
Vet’sje kor veien går, har’sje satt noe mål
Alt eg vil e vinne og forsvinne
Aldri har eg stått på kanten mot ett stup
Men tiden lærte meg å hoppe for å fly
Ja eg flyr, eg e på autopilot
Eg vet tiden leger alt så det gror
Vingene bærer meg videre ja
Vingene bærer meg videre så eg flyr
Ja eg flyr, flyr, flyr
Tenk om eg hadde blitt, blitt igjen og gitt
Som en ball i fritt fall i mot bakken
Du var alt, når eg falt sku du ta imot
Likevel var det som eg knakk nakken
E’sje d ironi alt du ville si, d e forbi
Du skal få tie for alltid
E’sje det ironi, var i bur, eg e fri
Eg fant vingene for å forsvinne
Aldri har eg stått på kanten mot et stup
Men tiden lærte meg å hoppe for å fly
Ja aldri har eg stått på kanten mot et stup
Men tiden lærte meg å fly, lærte meg å fly

(translation)

Just words, lots of words, I've heard it before
No one promises as empty as the ones you give
Had I shown that my soul was about to die
Had I shown everything I should and should say
Pulls the shortest straw, packs things to go
Have had enough of groping blindly
I know where the road is going, I have set some goals
Everything I want to win and disappear
I have never stood on the edge of a precipice
But time taught me to jump to fly
Yes I fly, I'm on autopilot
I know time heals everything so it grows
The wings have been shown solely to give a sense of proportion
The wings carry me further so I fly
Yes I fly, fly, fly
Imagine if I had stayed, stayed and given
Like a ball in free fall against the ground
You were everything, when I fell you should receive
Still, it was like I broke my neck
E’sje d irony all you wanted to say, d e past
You will be silent forever
It's that irony, I was in a cage, I'm free
I found the wings to disappear
I have never stood on the edge of a precipice
But time taught me to jump to fly
Yes, I have never stood on the edge of a precipice
But time taught me to fly, taught me to fly
