Translation of the song lyrics Brent Barn - JNS, Ludvig Moon

Brent Barn (original)

Brent barn skyr ilden
Jeg vil ikke rømme mer
Brent barn skyr ilden
Brent barn skyr ilden
Jeg var i hodet til å begynne med
Frykten om at gode ting tar slutt ble selvoppfyllende
Hadde noen å skylde på, vanskelig å skylle ned
Med selvmedlidenhet, hvordan tilgi disse syndene
Hun var alt jeg ville ha, før jeg visste hva det var
Siden jeg ikke visste hva det var, så var det kanskje ikke veldig rart
Hadde tatt noen dårlig valg, men av dem alle var vi verst
Kan’ke se meg tilbake uten å måtte angre tvert
Noen spor blir permanent som søppel i sement
Noen ting blir aldri glemt selv om du blir dement
Vit den smerten er latent der hvor kjærlighet er kjent
Du kan gå for nær den flammen, men du lærer av å bli brent
Vi klatra over murer og gjerder
Blir omtalt i ukjente sverer
Da husker vi fallende stjerner
Vi møtte aldri opp og skulle aldri dit igjen
Brent barn skyr ilden
Brent barn skyr ilden
Brent barn skyr ilden
Jeg vil ikke rømme mer
Brent barn skyr ilden
Brent barn skyr ilden
Brent barn skyr ilden
Jeg vil ikke rømme mer
Livet er en gave, kan’ke klage på det
Om du har det kjært, så ta vare på det
Vern om det som du sparer på det
Men ikke av frykt for å få skade på det
Det ble et langt år med kampsår
Det første kuttet var dypest
Og ingen tvil om hvem sitt fall som var mykest
Jeg vet ting, jeg ser ting, når glansbildet belyses
Glansbildet var vrang stilling da tilliten vår brytes
Både fysisk og psykisk
Kjipt hvis det er min skyld at din skyld tok sted
For selv om du sa unnskyld, så ga det meg ikke fred
Det er for sent å ikke omfavne det tapet
Jeg tror alt skjer for en grunn
Prøver å se frem og ikke tilbake
Noen spor blir permanent som søppel i sement
Noen ting blir aldri glemt selv om du blir dement
Vit den smerten er latent der hvor kjærlighet er kjent
Du kan gå for nær den flammen, men du lærer av å bli brent

Brent Barn (translation)

Once bitten, twice shy
I don't want to escape anymore
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
I was in my head at first
The fear that good things come to an end became self-fulfilling
Had someone to blame, hard to wash down
With self-pity, how to forgive these sins
She was everything I wanted, before I knew what it was
Since I didn't know what it was, maybe it wasn't very strange
Had made some bad choices but of them all we were the worst
Can't see me back without having to regret otherwise
Some tracks become permanent as litter in cement
Some things are never forgotten even if you get dementia
Know that pain is latent where love is known
You may walk too close to that flame, but you learn from getting burned
We climbed over walls and fences
Being mentioned in unknown swerves
Then we remember falling stars
We never showed up and were never going there again
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
I don't want to escape anymore
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
I don't want to escape anymore
Life is a gift, can't complain about it
If you love it, take care of it
Protect it as you save it
But not out of fear of damaging it
It was a long year of battle wounds
The first cut was the deepest
And no doubt as to whose fall was the softest
I know things, I see things, when the glossy image is illuminated
The glossy image was a twisted position when our trust is broken
Both physical and mental
Crazy if it's my fault that your fault took place
Because even if you said sorry, it didn't give me peace
It's too late not to embrace that loss
I believe everything happens for a reason
Trying to look forward and not back
Some tracks become permanent as litter in cement
Some things are never forgotten even if you get dementia
Know that pain is latent where love is known
You may walk too close to that flame, but you learn from getting burned
