Текст песни Mistakes of My Youth (Eels) с переводом

In the waning days ahead,

I gotta look back down the road.

I know that it’s not too late.

All the stupid things I’ve said,

and people I’ve hurt in my time.

I hope it’s not my fate

To keep defeating my own self,

and keep repeating yesterday.

I can’t keep defeating myself,

I can’t keep repeating,

the mistakes of my youth.

In the dark of night, I might

be able to make myself think

that I’m still a younger man.

But when the light of day shines down,

there’s no way to get around it,

I’m not the younger man.

I keep defeating my own self,

and keep repeating yesterday.

I can’t keep defeating myself,

I can’t keep repeating,

the mistakes of my youth.

The choice is mine for making

a better road ahead

the road that I’ve been taking,

headed for a dead-end,

but it’s not too late to turn around

In the final moments

I hope that I know that I tried

to do best I could

To stop defeating my own self

and stop repeating yesterday.

I can’t keep defeating myself,

I can’t keep repeating,

the mistakes of my youth.
