How can I think I'm standing strong,
Yet feel the air beneath my feet?
How can happiness feel so wrong?
How can misery feel so sweet?
How can you let me watch you sleep,
Then break my dreams the way you do?
How can I have got in so deep?
Why did I fall in love with you?
This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
I was never crazy on my own:
And now I know that there's a link between the two,
Being close to craziness and being close to you.
How can you make me fall apart
Then break my fall with loving lies?
It's so easy to break a heart;
It's so easy to close your eyes.
How can you treat me like a child
Yet like a child I yearn from you?
How can anyone feel so wild?
How can anyone feel so blue?
This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
I was never crazy on my own:
And now I know that there's a link between the two,
Being close to craziness and being close tо you.
Как я могу думать, что крепко стою на ногах
И при этом чувствовать под ними воздух?
Как счастье может быть таким неправильным?
Как страдание может быть таким сладким?
Как ты можешь позволять мне смотреть, как ты спишь,
А затем разрушать мои мечты таким образом?
Как я могла погрязнуть так глубоко,
Зачем я влюбилась в тебя?
Я никогда не была так близка к безумию,
Ощущая себя на 22, а действуя как 17-летняя,
Я никогда не знала такой близости к безумию.
Ведь я никогда не сходила с ума по себе,
А теперь я знаю, что есть связь между этими двумя вещами:
Быть на грани безумия и быть близкой к тебе.
Как ты можешь заставлять меня страдать,
А затем разрушать мою боль любовной ложью?
Сердце так легко разбить,
И так легко закрыть глаза.
Как ты можешь относиться ко мне как к ребёнку,
И всё же заставлять стремиться к тебе,
Как можно чувствовать себя так дико?
Как можно чувствовать себя так уныло?
Я никогда не была так близка к безумию,
Ощущая себя на 22, а действуя как 17-летняя,
Я никогда не знала такой близости к безумию.
Ведь я никогда не сходила с ума по себе,
А теперь я знаю, что есть связь между этими двумя вещами:
Быть на грани безумия и быть близкой к тебе.

How can I think that firmly stand on my feet
And at the same time feel the air beneath them?
How happiness can be so wrong?
How suffering can be so sweet?
How can you let me watch you sleep,
And then to destroy my dreams like this?
How could I get bogged down so deep,
Why did I fall in love with you?
I have never been so close to madness,
Feeling 22 and acting as a 17-year-old,
I never knew so close to madness.
After all, I never went crazy on their own,
And now I know that there is a connection between these two things:
Being on the brink of insanity and being close to you.
How can you make me suffer,
And then to destroy my pain love lie?
The heart is so easy to break,
And so easy to close your eyes.
How can you treat me like a child,
Yet forced to seek you,
How can I feel so wild?
How can I feel so sad?
I have never been so close to madness,
Feeling 22 and acting as a 17-year-old,
I never knew so close to madness.
After all, I never went crazy on their own,

Being on the brink of insanity and being close to you.
