Traduzione del testo della canzone Sympathetic Character - Alanis Morissette

Sympathetic Character (originale)

I was afraid you’d hit me if I’d spoken up I was afraid of your physical strength
I was afraid you’d hit below the belt
I was afraid of your sucker punch
I was afraid of your reducing me I was afraid of your alcohol breath
I was afraid of your complete disregard for me I was afraid of your temper
I was afraid of handles being flown off of I was afraid of holes being punched into walls
I was afraid of your testosterone
I have as much rage as you have
I have as much pain as you do
I’ve lived as much hell as you have
And I’ve kept mine bubbling under for you
You were my best friend
You were my lover
You were my mentor
You were my brother
You were my partner
You were my teacher
You were my very own sympathetic character
I was afraid of verbal daggers
I was afraid of the calm before the storm
I was afraid for my own bones
I was afraid of your seduction
I was afraid of your coercion
I was afraid of your rejection
I was afraid of your intimidation
I was afraid of your punishment
I was afraid of your icy silences
I was afraid of your volume
I was afraid of your manipulation
I was afraid of your explosions
I have as much rage as you have
I have as much pain as you do
I’ve lived as much hell as you have
And I’ve kept mine bubbling under for you
(repeat 2 x)
You were my keeper
You were my anchor
You were my family
You were my saivour
And therein lay the issue
And therein lay the problem

Sympathetic Character (traduzione)

Temevo che mi avresti colpito se avessi parlato, avevo paura della tua forza fisica
Temevo che avresti colpito sotto la cintura
Avevo paura del tuo pugno di ventosa
Avevo paura che mi riducessi, avevo paura del tuo respiro alcolico
Avevo paura del tuo completo disprezzo per me, avevo paura del tuo carattere
Temevo che le maniglie venissero volate via, avevo paura che i buchi venissero perforati nei muri
Avevo paura del tuo testosterone
Ho tutta la rabbia che hai tu
Provo tanto dolore quanto te
Ho vissuto tanto inferno quanto te
E ho mantenuto il mio ribollente per te
Eri il mio migliore amico
Eri il mio amante
Sei stato il mio mentore
Eri mio fratello
Eri il mio partner
Sei stato il mio insegnante
Eri il mio personaggio comprensivo
Avevo paura dei pugnali verbali
Avevo paura della calma prima della tempesta
Avevo paura per le mie stesse ossa
Avevo paura della tua seduzione
Avevo paura della tua coercizione
Avevo paura del tuo rifiuto
Avevo paura della tua intimidazione
Avevo paura della tua punizione
Avevo paura dei tuoi silenzi gelidi
Avevo paura del tuo volume
Avevo paura della tua manipolazione
Avevo paura delle tue esplosioni
Ho tutta la rabbia che hai tu
Provo tanto dolore quanto te
Ho vissuto tanto inferno quanto te
E ho mantenuto il mio ribollente per te
(ripetere 2 volte)
Eri il mio custode
Tu eri la mia ancora
Eri la mia famiglia
Tu eri il mio salvatore
E qui sta il problema
E qui sta il problema
