Перевод песни Front Row - Alanis Morissette

I know he's blood but you can still turn him away

You don't owe him anything

Do you go to the dungeon

To find out how to make peace

With your days in the dungeon

Writing a letter to you

Didn't make me feel any more peaceful

Than how I felt when we weren't speaking

Feels like I didn't cop to what I did

I can't love you 'cause we're supposed to have professional boundaries

I'd like you to be schooled and in awe

As though you were kissed by God full on the lips

(I'm too tired to recount the unpleasantries one by one, one minute I want to banish you the next, I want to be on a deserted island with you along with my three favourite CD's ambivalent yet in your bed we've yet to acknowledge what really happened)

I'm in the front row

The front row with popcorn

I get to see you

See you close up

Slid into the ditch

I have this overwhelming loss of ambition

We said let's name 30 good reasons

Why we shouldn't be together

I started by saying things like

"You smoke", "You live in New Jersey"

You started saying things like

"You belong to the world"

All of which could have been easily refuted

But the conversation was hypothetical

I am totally short of breath for you

Why can't you shut your stuff off

(And I laughed until my lungs hurt, I love how you bust my chops. You don't always feel seen, sometimes you feel erasable, unfortunately I cannot reciprocate in my current state. I think we should be careful of how much time we spend together)

I'm in the front row

The front row with popcorn

I get to see you

See you close up

For a while I'm speaking

You know how much you hate to be interrupted

Maybe spend some time alone

Fill up your proverbial cup so

That it doesn't always have to be about you

I've been wanting your undivided attention

I like the fact that you're nothing like me

Are you not burdened by the lack of

Perspective people have of your charmed life seemingly?

(You never meant to be ungrateful nor held up to be whipped or wept for certainly not analysed prodded at more ways than one. Apparently you've been misrepresented dealing with the concept of arrows being slung towards your outrageous fortune.)

I'm in the front row

The front row with popcorn

I get to see you

See you close up

Hey I'm not mad at your guardian

I'm mad at myself for spending

So much time with you and your Jackyl and Hydeness

I'm glad I figuratively slapped you on the wrist

You laughed a wicked laugh and said

"Come here let me clip your wings!"

I know he's blood but you can still turn him away

You don't owe him anything

"Raise the roof", he yelled

"Yeah, raise the roof!", I yelled back

(Unfortunately you needed a health scare to reprioritize)

No thanks to the soap box

Having me rile against them won't make an ounce of difference

(Oh the things I've done for you, many a sitch a friend, a man's been left for you, oh the books I've read for you, the tongues I've bitten for you, many a new city for you, many a risk taken for you. Not a single regret.)

I'm in the front row

The front row with popcorn

I get to see you

See you close up
