Brihang
Steentje (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
There’s a pebble in my shoe, but I’m already used to it
It’s because of that, that I feel I exist
I’m here, ‘cause I see it in the mirror of the window
I’m here, ‘cause I speak the same language, goodbye
There was an eyelash in my eye, and a fly in my mouth
It was because of that, that I felt I existed
I smoked cigarettes while drinking beer
‘Cause if I die, I'd prefer to do it unhealthily
Ha-ha

[Verse 2]
There’s a song in my head, I sing along in the shower
It’s because of that, that I feel I’m alive
I’ve been living my whole life in a castle of dreams
Just because I share my room with you, and there’s a lot of them
There’s a mosquito on the wall and I can’t kill it
And it’s typical, ‘cause I have to wake up early tomorrow
You know what they say about coincidence and destiny
I’m almost sure, yeah that mosquito is God
Ha-Ha

[Verse 3]
It’s been pinching and pinching for 26 years now
Yeah, it’s been my whole life that I carry this pebble with me
There are some things that happen
After a while you stop questioning it
I only felt I was alive by playing with the flame
But too much living will burn you out
So we travel to a tropical, warm country
And as proof we post a photo on In-sta-gram
Ha-ha
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a splinter in my thumb and I have a blister on my heel
Can’t you prescribe some kind of pill for that, please?
And also for my sorrow, can’t you do anything about that?
There’s probably still a – nah, never mind

[Chorus]
There’s nobody that can see it, ow ow ow
But I can feel it in my soul, ow ow ow
And how much it stings
Is how you compare it
Or how you chose to look at it, ow ow ow

There’s nobody that can see it, ow ow ow
But I can feel it in my soul, ow ow ow
And how much it stings
Is how you compare it
Or how you chose to look at it, ow ow ow

There’s nobody that can see it, ow ow ow
But I can feel it in my soul, ow ow ow
And how much it stings
Is how you compare it
Or how you chose to look at it, ow ow ow

There’s nobody that can see it, ow ow ow
But I can feel it in my soul, ow ow ow
And how much it stings
Is how you compare it
Or how you chose to look at it, ow ow ow
[Outro]
There's probably still a pebble in my shoe
Ha-ha
