  • Why do your eyes paralyze me?
    What makes me feel this way?
    Carry me away with silence and heartbeats as rapid
    Thinking about your embrace
    And how it makes me feel
    I just want to feel this way forever
    Sleep on portraits painted as perfect as you
    Why have I been given the chance to fly
    When I'm not with you I feel lesser alone
    Why have I been given the chance to fly, away?
    I remember your face imprinted on angels
    Your voice as beautiful as the sounds of waves
    Crashing against my heart
    Time slows down when you look at me
    I'm infatuated with this / infatuated with you
    I remember your face imprinted on angels
    It's so hard for me to understand
    Why I hadn't found you before
    Dont dull away,
    Hold my hand

    i thought this was going to be horrible, but it's quite interesting and very worthy of a listen. the original is probably still one of my favorite hardcore songs of all time. makes me yearn for hardcore in the early '00s again.

    the answer is: awesome
    i fell in love with PTW in 2002 when i was i guess 12 or 13 years old. that was when i was big on the hardcore scene back then. people didn't fuck with these guys but i always sang their praise.
    this song is awesome. it's like a private slice of heaven for us oldschool PTW fans. Like a secret fishing spot, or a really awesome place in the woods that no one knows about

    Why do your eyes paralyze me?
    What makes me feel this way?
    Just carry me away with silence
    And heartbeats as rapid
    Just thinking of your embrace
    And how it makes me feel
    I just want to feel this way forever
    Forever
    Sleep on portraits
    Painted as perfect as you
    Why have I been given the chance to fly
    Away
    When I'm not with you
    I feel lesser
    I’m alone
    Why have I been given the chance to fly?
    I remember your face imprinted
    On angels
    Your voice as beautiful as the sounds of waves
    Crashing against my heart
    Time slows down when you look at me
    I'm infatuated with this
    Infatuated with you
    With you....
    Sleep on portraits
    Painted as perfect as you
    Why have I been given the chance to fly
    Away
    When I’m not with you
    I feel lesser
    I’m alone
    Why have I been given the chance to fly?
    Yeah I remember your face imprinted
    On angels
    It's so hard for me to understand why
    I hadn't found you before
    Don’t dull away
    Hold my hand

Before I go, I want to travel the world with a band and I'm not going to let that dream go until the end. Don't let yourself down over that one girl. If she's not the one, you can still always wait for a better one to come around that truly loves you back. There are always more opportunities ahead of you, don't let one thing get you down!

    POISON THE WELL - NERDY
    Por que seus olhos me paralisam
    O que me faz sentir assim
    Apenas me leve embora com silêncio e batimentos cardíacos
    Como pensamento rápido sobre o seu abraço
    E como isso me faz sentir
    Eu só quero me sentir assim para sempre
    Durma em retratos pintados tão perfeitos quanto você
    Por que tive a chance de voar
    Quando não estou com você, me sinto menos sozinho
    Lembro-me de seu rosto / impresso em anjos
    bonito / como o som das ondas
    Batendo contra o meu coração
    O tempo diminui quando você olha para mim
    Estou apaixonado por isso / apaixonado por você
    É tão difícil para mim entender por que
    Eu não tinha te encontrado antes, não se apavore
    Segure minha mão

That line "When I'm NOT with you I feel lesser alone", means he feels more alone with the person than without. Think about it :)
