To Understand
It's difficult to understand
Like an instable balance
When I'm speaking, don't shout
And if I cry, make me breathe
The solution is simple
Give yourself without ever demanding
Don't move away when I fall
But if I run, don't stop
And all the time I already lost, where is it?
Now I want it back
And how much life to forget because
It's more unlikely for us to build
It's difficult to understand
Like an instable balance
When I'm speaking, don't shout
And if I cry, make me breathe
The solution is simple
Give yourself without ever demanding
Don't move away when I fall
But if I run, don't stop
And all the sky I already lost, where is it?
Now I want it back
And how many nights hurting ourselves because
It's less easier for us to be fine
It's difficult to understand
Like an instable balance
When I'm speaking, don't shout
And if I cry, make me breathe
The solution is simple
Give yourself without ever demanding
Don't move away when I fall
But if I run, don't stop
And if the world slides away
I want to smile
Your wound is also mine
But if I close my eyes I still see you
It's still you...
You...
And all the time we lost, where is it?
(When I'm speaking, don't shout
And if I cry, make me breathe)
And how much life to forget because
(Don't move away when I fall
But if I run, don't stop)
It's difficult to understand
Like an instable balance
When I'm speaking, don't shout
And if I cry, make me breathe
The solution is simple
Give yourself without ever demanding
Don't move away when I fall
But if I run, don't stop

Author's comments:
If I followed the way the original lyrics were written, the translation could become confusing for readers, so I tried to simplify it - and that means I changed some word order and syntax here and there. I also changed 'The comprehension' (which would be the 100% accurate song title translation) because it's an unusual word - 'To understand is hard' is easier to catch. Hope it's fine.
