Jakkals Vibes Heeltemal stom Lyrics English Translation
Every time I see you
I just go dumb again
I practice with every robot that is red
Talk to myself as if you are there
Listen here I start then the light is green
Same story every morning, same dream
Years of words pent up
But in front of you my head goes blank
Every time I lose heart when you walk by
I am a hero in my heart but dumbfounded by you
Everyone sees it but you don’t
My friends laugh, they know exactly
I’m the guy who can say everything
Except what really matters
Your name is stuck in my throat
I am dumb, words won’t come
All that comes out is a shark or an awe
I’m a fool on WhatsApp but just delete it again
I’m cool at the braai until you walk in
Completely dumb, completely dumb
Six messages I still have to send
Hey, too casual, Hello, too general
Get self-confidence from the Klippies and Coke
But as soon as you smile all my courage
Your friends try, they give me chances
But I just stand there like a statue
Practice makes you better everyone tells me
But I’ve been practicing for so long, I have a PhD
The words dance around in my head
But my mouth is a roadblock
Nothing gets through, everything stops
Only my heart beats through the silence
I’m dumb, I can’t speak
Your name is stuck in my throat
I’m dumb words won’t come
All that comes out is a shark or an awe
I’m a windbag on WhatsApp but just delete it again
I’m cool at the braai until you walk in there
Completely dumb, completely dumb
Maybe it’s okay to be like this
To stand stunned in front of you
Because if I could talk I might say something
That breaks the friendship between the two of us
But tomorrow, tomorrow I’ll try again
Maybe tomorrow I’ll be stronger
Tomorrow
Oh, I’m already dumb again
Jakkals Vibes Heeltemal stom Lyrics
Elke keer as ek jou sien
Word ek net weer stom
Ek oefen by elke robot wat rooi is
Praat met myself asof jy daar is
Hoor hier begin ek dan’s die lig groen
Selfde storie elke oggend, selfde droom
Jare se woorde opgekrop
Maar voor jou raak my kop leeg
Elke keer val my moed as jy verby stap
Ek is ’n held in my hart maar stom geslaan deur jou
Almal sien dit maar nie jy
My vriende lag, hulle weet presies
Ek’s die ou wat alles kan sê
Behalwe dit wat regtig saak maak
Jou naam is vasgevang in my keel
Ek is stom, woorde wil nie kom nie
Al wat uitkom is ‘n haai of ‘n awe
Ek is windgat op WhatsApp maar delete dit net weer
Ek is cool by die braai tot jy daar in stap
Heeltemal stom, heeltemal stom
Ses boodskappe moet ek nog stuur
Hey, te casual, Hello, te algemene
Kry selfvertroue van die Klippies en Coke
Maar sodra jy glimlag verdwyn al my moed
Jou vriendinne probeer, hulle gee my kanse
Maar ek staan net daar soos ’n standbeeld
Oefen maak jou beter sê almal vir my
Maar ek oefen al so lank, ek’t ‘n PhD
Die woorde dans in my kop rond
Maar my mond is ’n padblokade
Niks gaan deur nie, alles stop
Net my hart klop deur die stilte
Ek is stom, ek kan nie praat nie
Jou naam is vasgevang in my keel
Ek is stom woorde wil nie kom nie
Al wat uitkom is ‘n haai of ‘n awe
Ek is windgat op WhatsApp maar delete dit net weer
Ek is cool by die braai tot jy daar in stap
Heeltemal stom, heeltemal stom
Miskien is dit okay om so te wees
Om stomgeslaan te staan voor jou
Want as ek kon praat sou ek dalk iets sê
Wat die vriendskap breek tussen ons twee
Maar môre, môre probeer ek weer
Môre’s ek dalk sterker
Môre
Ag, ek is al weer stom
