LYRICS Hurtful by Erik Hassle

I used to laugh it off
I used to look the other way
I used to save them troubles for another day
I kept my fingers crossed
I used to never take the blame
I'd pull a sunshine story in a pouring rain
The more I had to change I'd just stay the same

(The same, the same, I stayed the same)

You don't know what you got till you're missing it a lot
I had to go throw it away
I was wrong from the start from the bottom of my heart I apologize
What I did to you was hurtful
What I'm going through is hurtful

I used to bide my time
I used to beat around the bush
I'd rather give my ego another push
I used to be a fool
It was a foolish game I played
And it's a fool's fate counting mistakes I've made
Once I had it right it was all too late

(Too late, too late, too little too late)

You don't know what you got until you're missing it a lot
I had to go throw it away
I was wrong from the start from the bottom of my heart I apologize
What I did to you was hurtful
What I'm going through is hurtful
What I'm going through is hurtful
It is hurtful
It's hurtful

Oh what I did to you
(What I did to you)

What I did to you was hurtful
What I'm going through is hurtful

I was wrong from the start from the bottom of my heart I apologize
What I did to you was hurtful
And what I'm going through is hurtful

TRANSLATION: Doloroso de Erik Hassle

Yo solía reírme de todo 
Solía mirar al otro lado 
Solía guardar los problemas para otro día 
Mantuve mis dedos cruzados 
Solía no aceptar la culpa 
Tirar una historia soleada en la intensa lluvia 
Mientras más tuve que cambiar más me mantuve igual 
(igual, igual, me mantuve igual) 
No sabes lo que tienes hasta que lo extrañas demasiado 
Tuve que tirar todo a la basura 
Yo estaba mal desde el principio, desde el fondo de mi corazón te pido perdón 
Lo que te hice fue doloroso 
Lo que estoy pasando es doloroso. 
Solía esperar mi tiempo 
Solía irme por las ramas
Preferiría darle a mi ego otro empujón 
Yo solía ser un tonto 
Era un juego tonto el que jugué
Y es el destino de un tonto contar los errores que he cometido 
Una vez que estaba en lo correcto era demasiado tarde. 
(muy tarde, muy tarde, un poco muy tarde) 
No sabes lo que tienes hasta que lo extrañas demasiado 
Tuve que tirar todo a la basura 
Yo estaba mal desde el principio, desde el fondo de mi corazón te pido perdón 
Lo que te hice fue doloroso 
Lo que estoy pasando es doloroso. 
Oh, lo que te hice 
(lo que te hice) 
Lo que te hice fue doloroso 
Lo que estoy pasando es doloroso 
Yo estaba mal desde el principio, desde el fondo de mi corazón te pido perdón 
Lo que te hice fue doloroso 
Y lo que estoy pasando es doloroso.

LETRA TRADUCIDA

Mira a esos tontos así es como lo haces,

tocas la guitarra en la MTV.
Eso no es trabajar, así es como lo haces,
dinero por nada y tías gratis.
Ahora eso no es trabajar, así es como lo haces.

Déjame decirte que esos tíos no son tontos,
quizás consigas una ampolla en tu meñique,
quizás consigas una ampolla en tu pulgar.

Tenemos que instalar hornos microondas,
entrega de cocinas a medida.
Tenemos que mover estas neveras
tenemos que mover estas teles en color.

Mira al pequeño maricón
con el pendiente y el maquillaje.
Sí tío, es su propio pelo.
Ese pequeño maricón tiene su propio avión,
ese pequeño maricón es millonario.

Tenemos que instalar hornos microondas,
entrega de cocinas a medida.
Tenemos que mover estas neveras
tenemos que mover teles en color.

Debería haber aprendido a tocar la guitarra,
debería haber aprendido a tocar la batería.
Mira a esa tía, lo tiene pegado a la cámara,

Tío, podríamos tener un poco de diversión.
Y él está ahí, ¿qué es eso? ¿ruidos hawaianos?,

Golpeando los bongos como un mono,
eso no es trabajar, así es como lo haces,
consigues tu dinero por nada, consigues tus chicas gratis.

Tenemos que instalar hornos microondas,
entrega de cocinas a medida.
Tenemos que mover estas neveras
tenemos que mover estas  teles en color , Señor.

Eso ahora no es trabajar, así es como lo haces,

tocas la guitarra en la MTV
Eso no es trabajar, así es como lo haces,

Pretenders – “No me malinterpretes”. TRANSLATION No me malinterpretes, si me veo algo deslumbrada; veo luces de neón, cada vez que tú pasas (caminas por) No me malinterpretes, si me dices hola y yo me voy de paseo, sobre un mar donde la luna mística está haciendo estragos con la marea. no me malinterpretes. No me malinterprete, si actúo tan distraída; Estoy pensando en los fuegos artificiales, que estallan cuando sonríes. No me malinterpreten, si me disperso como la luz refractada, sólo me alejé para vagara través de una milla de luna. De vez en cuando, dos personas se encuentran aparentemente sin razón simplemente pasan en la calle. de repente truena, llueve por todas partes quien puede explicar el trueno y la lluvia pero hay algo en el aire. No me malinterpretes, si voy y vengo como la moda. podría ser genial mañana pero ayer sin esperanza. No me malinterpretes, si caigo en la moda de la pasión podría ser increíble. pero no vamos a permanecer tanto tiempo, podría ser simplemente fantástico no me malinterpretes.
