Pallbearer Lyrics English Translation by kitsyojii
Naked, I answer the phone, your mom passed away
For some reason I woke up early today, felt like washing up for no reason
She must’ve wanted to see you looking clean, that’s why she called you to come
First time going out without eating eggs, even looking at the portrait it don’t feel real
All the busy-ass boys gathered up, the reason’s messed up but it was good to see y’all
Honestly I been avoiding you guys for a while, life got too different
But the one thing time couldn’t change, your mom is my mom
Don’t gotta ask me twice, sending her off is my role, that’s a given
I smile but I’m crying my brother I feel you you you
that’s heavy huh? mine too too too
I’m holding my mom in my arms
that’s heavy huh? mine too too too sorry
I can’t feel you you you
Time blows like the wind, we’re each carrying our own weight yuh
The eldest son’s kid running around and I pick him up in my arms
When did you get this heavy?
Maybe this is the weight of my friend’s life
Look around, we all got older, we all got our differences but
Choices and results connect, it all goes on your shoulders, you carry it
You chose money so you got no romance, I chose dreams so I got no free time
Didn’t really get what that meant, now I see it’s responsibility
In the envelope of lack, different thicknesses of paper
We split carrying your mom’s coffin, is even this weight different for us?
Can’t know
I smile but I’m crying my brother I feel you you you
that’s heavy huh? mine too too too
I’m holding my mom in my arms
that’s heavy huh? mine too too too
sorry I can’t feel you you you
Time blows like the wind
We’re each carrying our own weight yuh
Three days later I come home
I catch the salt my mom sprinkled
I turn around and quietly hug my mom
This woman seems so small today
No major illness, that’s this son’s blessing
What she told me when I said I wanna do music
Your life, your choices, it’s all on you, I realized
What was it that was placed on my shoulders
When I’m struggling, saying everyone’s got their own time
My mom wiping my tears
I think I saw that face again
Inside my friend’s mom’s portrait photo
All the failures and setbacks I pushed through
I’m going to take responsibility for my life
It’s weird, the vibe is heavy but my steps feel light
Watch over this son
take the loss yourself baby
take the win yourself baby
I’ll go my own way so take yours
it’s all beautiful
beautiful
yeah
