Self Esteem

La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
And practiced all the things I would say
But she came over, I lost my nerve
I took her back and made her dessert
Now I know I'm being used
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
I know she's playin' with me
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
We make plans to go out at night
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
This rejection's got me so low
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
But I really think it's better this way
The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care
Right? Yeah
Now I'll relate this little bit
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Late at night, she knocks on my door
She's drunk again and looking to score
Now I know I should say no
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
But I really think it's better this way
The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care
Right? Yeah
A Ironia e o Desabafo em Self Esteem do The Offspring
A música Self Esteem, da banda The Offspring, é um retrato cru e irônico das inseguranças e da falta de autoestima que podem afligir alguém dentro de um relacionamento tóxico. Lançada em 1994, no álbum 'Smash', a canção se tornou um dos maiores sucessos do grupo, marcando presença no cenário do punk rock dos anos 90 com sua sonoridade enérgica e letras que falam diretamente ao coração de uma juventude desiludida.
A letra da música descreve a história de um homem que, consciente de estar sendo usado por sua parceira, continua a aceitar esse tratamento por se sentir carente e por ter baixa autoestima. Ele narra diferentes situações em que é deixado de lado, rejeitado ou traído, mas ainda assim, encontra justificativas para manter-se nesse ciclo vicioso, sugerindo que o sofrimento é uma prova de amor verdadeiro. Essa ideia é expressa de forma sarcástica no refrão, onde a banda questiona se realmente 'quanto mais você sofre, mais mostra que se importa'.
A música também aborda a dificuldade de se posicionar e a luta interna entre saber o que é certo e ter a força para agir de acordo. O protagonista da canção reconhece que deveria se defender e se afastar da situação, mas admite que acha melhor não fazê-lo. Essa ambivalência emocional é algo com que muitas pessoas podem se identificar, tornando Self Esteem uma música poderosa e atemporal. Através de sua honestidade e energia, The Offspring conseguiu criar um hino que ressoa com aqueles que já se sentiram menosprezados ou desvalorizados em suas relações pessoais.

La, la, la-la-la
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
Eu escrevi para ela pela décima vez hoje
And practiced all the things I would say
E pratiquei todas as coisas que eu diria
But she came over, I lost my nerve
Mas ela chegou e eu perdi a coragem
I took her back and made her dessert
Eu a aceitei de volta e fiz-lhe uma sobremesa
Now I know I'm being used
Agora eu sei que estou sendo usado
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
Tudo bem, cara, porque eu gosto do abuso
I know she's playin' with me
Eu sei que ela está brincando comigo
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
Tudo bem, porque eu não tenho auto-estima
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, ei, sim, sim, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
We make plans to go out at night
Fizemos planos para sair à noite
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
Eu espero até as duas, depois apago a luz
This rejection's got me so low
Toda essa rejeição me deixou tão para baixo
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
Se ela continuar, talvez eu acabe lhe dizendo
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, ei, sim, sim, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Quando ela diz, oh, que sou o único que ela quer
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Então eu me pergunto por que ela dorme com meus amigos
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Quando ela diz, oh, que eu sou como uma doença
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Então eu me pergunto quanto mais eu posso gastar
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Bem, eu acho que deveria me defender
But I really think it's better this way
Mas eu realmente acho que é melhor assim
The more you suffer
Quanto mais você sofre
The more it shows you really care
Mais mostra o quanto se importa
Right? Yeah
Certo? Sim
Now I'll relate this little bit
Agora vou contar um pouco mais
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Acontece mais do que eu gostaria de admitir
Late at night, she knocks on my door
Tarde da noite, ela bate à minha porta
She's drunk again and looking to score
Ela está bêbada de novo e querendo transar
Now I know I should say no
Agora eu sei que deveria dizer não
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
Mas é meio difícil quando ela está pronta para ir
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
Eu posso ser burro, mas não sou um imbecil
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
Eu sou apenas um otário sem auto-estima
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, ei, sim, sim, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sim, sim
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Quando ela diz, oh, que sou o único que ela quer
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

The more you suffer

The more it shows you really care
Mais mostra o quanto se importa
Right? Yeah
Certo? Sim
La, la, la-la-la

I wrote her off for the tenth time today
La descarté por décima vez hoy
And practiced all the things I would say
Y practico todas las cosas que diría
But she came over, I lost my nerve
Pero ella se acercó, perdí los nervios
I took her back and made her dessert
La traje de vuelta y le hice el postre
Now I know I'm being used
Ahora sé que me están usando
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
Está bien, porque me gusta el abuso
I know she's playin' with me
Sé que ella juega conmigo
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
Está bien porque no tengo autoestima
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oye, sí, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
We make plans to go out at night
Hacemos planes para salir de noche
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
Espero hasta las dos, luego apago la luz
This rejection's got me so low
Este rechazo me ha deprimido tanto
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
Si sigue así, podría decírselo
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oye, sí, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Cuando dice, oh, que solo me quiere a mí
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Entonces me pregunto por qué se acuesta con mis amigos
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Cuando dice, oh, que soy como una enfermedad
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Entonces me pregunto cuánto más puedo gastar
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Bueno, supongo que debo defenderme a mí mismo
But I really think it's better this way
Pero realmente creo que es mejor así
The more you suffer
Cuanto más sufras
The more it shows you really care
Más demuestra que realmente te importa
Right? Yeah
¿Verdad? Sí
Now I'll relate this little bit
Ahora voy a relatar este poco
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Sucede más de lo que me gustaría admitir
Late at night, she knocks on my door
A altas horas de la noche, llama a mi puerta
She's drunk again and looking to score
Está borracha de nuevo y busca a alguien
Now I know I should say no
Ahora sé que debo decir que no
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
Pero es un poco difícil cuando está lista para ir
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
Puedo ser tonto, pero no soy tonto
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
Solo soy un tonto sin autoestima
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oye, sí, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sí, sí

Cuando dice, oh, que soy como una enfermedad
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Entonces me pregunto cuánto más puedo gastar
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Bueno, supongo que debo defenderme por mí mismo
But I really think it's better this way
Pero realmente creo que es mejor así
The more you suffer
Cuanto más sufras
The more it shows you really care
Más demuestra que realmente te importa
Right? Yeah
¿Verdad? Sí
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la la la
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la la la
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
J'ai fait une croix sur elle pour la dixième fois aujourd'hui
And practiced all the things I would say
Et répété toutes les choses que je dirais
But she came over, I lost my nerve
Mais elle est venue, j'ai perdu mon sang-froid
I took her back and made her dessert
Je l'ai reprise et lui ai préparé un dessert
Now I know I'm being used
Oui, je sais, elle m'utilise
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
C'est bon, mec, j'aime qu'elle abuse de moi
I know she's playin' with me
Je sais qu'elle joue avec moi
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
C'est bon, parce que je n'ai aucune fierté
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
We make plans to go out at night
Nous faisons des projets pour sortir le soir
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
J'attends jusqu'à deux heures, puis j'éteins la lumière
This rejection's got me so low
Quand elle me rejette, ça me déprime
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
Si elle continue, je pourrais peut-être le lui dire
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Quand elle dit, oh, que c'est moi qu'elle veut
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Je me demande pourquoi elle couche avec mes amis
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Quand elle dit, oh, que je suis comme une maladie
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Je me demande combien je peux encore dépenser
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Oui, je suppose que je devrais me défendre
But I really think it's better this way
Mais je pense vraiment que c'est mieux comme ça
The more you suffer
Plus vous souffrez
The more it shows you really care
Plus cela montre que vous aimez vraiment
Right? Yeah
N'est-ce pas ? Oui
Now I'll relate this little bit
Maintenant, je vais raconter cette petite anecdote
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Qui arrive plus souvent que je ne veux l'admettre
Late at night, she knocks on my door
Tard dans la nuit, elle frappe à ma porte
She's drunk again and looking to score
Elle est encore ivre et elle veut coucher avec moi
Now I know I should say no
Oui, je sais que je devrais dire non
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
Mais c'est un peu difficile quand elle a envie
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
Je suis peut-être stupide mais je ne suis pas un crétin
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
Je suis juste un idiot sans aucune fierté
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Quand elle dit, oh, que c'est moi qu'elle veut
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Je me demande pourquoi elle couche avec mes amis
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Quand elle dit, oh, que je suis comme une maladie
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Je me demande combien je peux encore dépenser
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Oui, je suppose que je devrais me défendre
But I really think it's better this way
Mais je pense vraiment que c'est mieux comme ça
The more you suffer
Plus vous souffrez
The more it shows you really care
Plus cela montre que vous aimez vraiment
Right? Yeah
N'est-ce pas ? Oui
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
Ich habe sie heute zum zehnten Mal abgeschrieben
And practiced all the things I would say
Und übte all die Dinge, die ich sagen würde
But she came over, I lost my nerve
Aber sie kam rüber, ich verlor die Nerven
I took her back and made her dessert
Ich nahm sie wieder auf und machte ihr ein Dessert
Now I know I'm being used
Ich weiß zwar, dass ich ausgenutzt werde
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
Das ist okay, Mann, denn ich mag den Missbrauch
I know she's playin' with me
Ich weiß, dass sie mit mir spielt
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
Das ist okay, denn ich habe kein Selbstwertgefühl
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, ja, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
We make plans to go out at night
Wir machen Pläne, nachts auszugehen
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
Ich warte bis zwei, dann mache ich das Licht aus
This rejection's got me so low
Diese Ablehnung hat mich so tief getroffen
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
Wenn sie so weitermacht, werde ich ihr das sagen
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, ja, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Wenn sie sagt, oh, dass sie nur mich will
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Dann frage ich mich, warum sie mit meinen Freunden schläft
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Wenn sie sagt, oh, dass ich wie eine Krankheit bin
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Dann frage ich mich, wie viel ich noch ausgeben kann
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Nun, ich sollte wohl für mich selbst eintreten
But I really think it's better this way
Aber ich glaube wirklich, dass es so besser ist
The more you suffer
Je mehr du leidest
The more it shows you really care
Umso mehr zeigt es, dass du dich wirklich kümmerst
Right? Yeah
Richtig? Ja
Now I'll relate this little bit
Jetzt erzähle ich ein wenig
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Das passiert öfter, als ich zugeben möchte
Late at night, she knocks on my door
Spät in der Nacht klopft sie an meine Tür
She's drunk again and looking to score
Sie ist wieder betrunken und will punkten
Now I know I should say no
Jetzt weiß ich, dass ich nein sagen sollte
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
Aber es ist irgendwie schwer, wenn sie bereit ist zu gehen
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
Ich mag dumm sein, aber ich bin kein Dweeb
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
Ich bin nur ein Sucker ohne Selbstwertgefühl
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, ja, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ja, ja
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Wenn sie sagt, oh, dass sie nur mich will
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

Richtig? Ja
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
L'ho cancellata per la decima volta oggi
And practiced all the things I would say
E messo in pratica tutte le cose che direi
But she came over, I lost my nerve
Ma lei si è avvicinata, mi è mancato il coraggio
I took her back and made her dessert
L'ho riportata indietro e le ho preparato un dolce
Now I know I'm being used
Ora so di essere usato
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
Va bene, amico, perché mi piacciono gli abusi
I know she's playin' with me
So che sta giocando con me
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
Va bene perché non ho autostima
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, ehi, sì, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
We make plans to go out at night
Facciamo piani per uscire di sera
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
Aspetto fino all due, poi spengo al luce
This rejection's got me so low
Questo rifiuto mi ha portato così in basso
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
Se continua così, potrei dirglielo
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, ehi, sì, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Quando dice, oh, che vuole solo me
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Poi mi chiedo perché va a letto con i miei amici
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Quando dice, oh, che sono come una malattia
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Allora mi chiedo quanto altro posso spendere
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Beh, credo che dovrei difendere me stesso
But I really think it's better this way
Ma penso davvero che sia meglio così
The more you suffer
Più soffri
The more it shows you really care
Più mostra che ci tieni davvero
Right? Yeah
Giusto? Sì
Now I'll relate this little bit
Ora racconterò questa piccola cosa
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Succede più di quanto vorrei ammettere
Late at night, she knocks on my door
A tarda notte, bussa alla mia porta
She's drunk again and looking to score
È di nuovo ubriaca e cerca di segnare
Now I know I should say no
Ora so che dovrei dire di no
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
Ma è un po' difficile quando è pronta per partire
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
Posso essere stupido, ma non sono un idiota
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
Sono solo un idiota senza autostima
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, ehi, sì, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, sì, sì
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me

I wrote her off for the tenth time today
Saya menolaknya untuk kesepuluh kalinya hari ini
And practiced all the things I would say
Dan berlatih semua hal yang akan saya katakan
But she came over, I lost my nerve
Tapi dia datang, saya kehilangan keberanian
I took her back and made her dessert
Saya membawanya kembali dan membuatkan dia makanan penutup
Now I know I'm being used
Sekarang saya tahu saya sedang dimanfaatkan
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
Tidak apa-apa, teman, karena saya suka disiksa
I know she's playin' with me
Saya tahu dia bermain-main dengan saya
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
Tidak apa-apa karena saya tidak memiliki harga diri
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, ya, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ya, ya

Oh, ya, ya
We make plans to go out at night
Kami merencanakan untuk pergi keluar malam ini
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
Saya menunggu sampai jam dua, lalu saya mematikan lampu
This rejection's got me so low
Penolakan ini membuat saya sangat terpuruk
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
Jika dia terus seperti ini, saya mungkin akan memberitahunya
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, ya, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ya, ya
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Ketika dia berkata, oh, bahwa dia hanya menginginkan saya
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Lalu saya bertanya-tanya mengapa dia tidur dengan teman-teman saya
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Ketika dia berkata, oh, bahwa saya seperti penyakit
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Lalu saya bertanya-tanya berapa banyak lagi yang bisa saya habiskan
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
Yah, saya rasa saya harus membela diri saya sendiri
But I really think it's better this way
Tapi saya benar-benar berpikir ini lebih baik
The more you suffer
Semakin Anda menderita
The more it shows you really care
Semakin itu menunjukkan Anda benar-benar peduli
Right? Yeah
Benar? Ya
Now I'll relate this little bit
Sekarang saya akan menceritakan sedikit ini
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Ini terjadi lebih sering daripada yang saya ingin akui
Late at night, she knocks on my door
Di tengah malam, dia mengetuk pintu saya
She's drunk again and looking to score
Dia mabuk lagi dan ingin mencari kesenangan
Now I know I should say no
Sekarang saya tahu saya harus mengatakan tidak
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
Tapi agak sulit ketika dia sudah siap untuk pergi
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
Saya mungkin bodoh, tapi saya bukan orang tolol
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
Saya hanya orang bodoh yang tidak memiliki harga diri
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, ya, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, ya, ya
Oh, yeah, yeah

La, la, la-la-la
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
今日は彼女に10回手紙を書いた
And practiced all the things I would say
言いたいことも全て練習した
But she came over, I lost my nerve
でも彼女が来て 気おくれしたのさ
I took her back and made her dessert
彼女を取り戻してデザートを創った
Now I know I'm being used
僕は使われてたって分かったよ
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
それもいいさ 虐待好きだから
I know she's playin' with me
彼女はただの遊びだったんだ
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
それもいいさ 僕に自尊心なんてないから
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
We make plans to go out at night
夜にデートを計画し
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
2時まで待って 灯りを消した
This rejection's got me so low
この拒絶反応で気分が超絶沈んだよ
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
彼女がまだいてくれたら そう言っただろうな
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
彼女が僕だけ欲しいって言ったとき
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
じゃあなんで僕の親友と寝たんだろうって思った
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
彼女が私って病気なのって言ったとき
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
僕はあとどれだけ浪費できるだろうって思った
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
まあ自分を大切にするしかないよね
But I really think it's better this way
でもこうする方がいいいと思う
The more you suffer
君が苦しむほど
The more it shows you really care
君が気にしてくれてるって分かる
Right? Yeah
そうだろ？ああ
Now I'll relate this little bit
ちょっと手を緩めようか
It happens more than I'd like to admit
思ったよりよくあることなんだよね
Late at night, she knocks on my door
夜遅く 彼女は僕のドアをノックする
She's drunk again and looking to score
また泥酔して 得点稼ぎさ
Now I know I should say no
ノーと言うべきだよね
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
でも彼女が行ってしまうと思うと それができない
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
俺はバカだけどヤな奴じゃないから
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
ただ自尊心がないだけの男なのさ
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
彼女が僕だけ欲しいって言ったとき
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
じゃあなんで僕の親友と寝たんだろうって思った
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
彼女が私って病気なのって言ったとき
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
僕はあとどれだけ浪費できるだろうって思った
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
まあ自分を大切にするしかないよね
But I really think it's better this way
でもこうする方がいいいと思う
The more you suffer
君が苦しむほど
The more it shows you really care
君が気にしてくれてるって分かる
Right? Yeah
そうだろ？ああ
La, la, la-la-la
ลา ลา ลา-ลา-ลา
La, la, la-la-la
ลา ลา ลา-ลา-ลา
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
ฉันได้ตัดเธอออกไปเป็นครั้งที่สิบในวันนี้
And practiced all the things I would say
และฝึกซ้อมทุกสิ่งที่ฉันจะพูด
But she came over, I lost my nerve
แต่เธอมาหา ฉันก็เสียขวัญ
I took her back and made her dessert
ฉันรับเธอกลับมาและทำของหวานให้เธอ
Now I know I'm being used
ตอนนี้ฉันรู้แล้วว่าฉันกำลังถูกใช้
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
ไม่เป็นไรนะ ครับ เพราะฉันชอบการถูกทำร้าย
I know she's playin' with me
ฉันรู้ว่าเธอกำลังเล่นกับฉัน
That's okay 'cause I got no self esteem
ไม่เป็นไร เพราะฉันไม่มีความภาคภูมิใจในตัวเอง
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
โอ้ ฮะ เย่ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
We make plans to go out at night
เราวางแผนที่จะออกไปเที่ยวกลางคืน
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
ฉันรอจนถึงสองโมง แล้วฉันก็ปิดไฟ
This rejection's got me so low
การถูกปฏิเสธทำให้ฉันเสียใจมาก
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
ถ้าเธอยังทำแบบนี้ต่อไป ฉันอาจจะบอกเธอ
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
โอ้ ฮะ เย่ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
เมื่อเธอบอกว่า โอ้ เธอต้องการแค่ฉัน
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
แล้วฉันก็สงสัยว่าทำไมเธอถึงนอนกับเพื่อนของฉัน
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
เมื่อเธอบอกว่า โอ้ ฉันเหมือนโรคร้าย
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
แล้วฉันก็สงสัยว่าฉันจะต้องใช้จ่ายอีกเท่าไหร่
Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
เอาล่ะ ฉันคิดว่าฉันควรจะยืนหยัดเพื่อตัวเอง
But I really think it's better this way
แต่ฉันคิดว่ามันดีกว่าแบบนี้
The more you suffer
ยิ่งคุณท suffer
The more it shows you really care
ยิ่งแสดงให้เห็นว่าคุณแคร์จริงๆ
Right? Yeah
ใช่ไหม? เย่
Now I'll relate this little bit
ตอนนี้ฉันจะเล่าเรื่องเล็กๆ น้อยๆ นี้
It happens more than I'd like to admit
มันเกิดขึ้นบ่อยกว่าที่ฉันอยากจะยอมรับ
Late at night, she knocks on my door
ดึกๆ เธอมาเคาะประตู
She's drunk again and looking to score
เธอเมาอีกแล้วและมาหาคนร่วมเตียง
Now I know I should say no
ตอนนี้ฉันรู้ว่าฉันควรจะพูดไม่
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
แต่มันค่อนข้างยากเมื่อเธอพร้อมจะไป
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
ฉันอาจจะโง่ แต่ฉันไม่ใช่คนโง่
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
ฉันแค่คนโง่ที่ไม่มีความภาคภูมิใจในตัวเอง
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
โอ้ ฮะ เย่ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่
Oh, yeah, yeah
โอ้ เย่ เย่

The more you suffer
ยิ่งคุณทุกข์
The more it shows you really care
ยิ่งแสดงให้เห็นว่าคุณแคร์จริงๆ
Right? Yeah
ใช่ไหม? เย่
