Under The Bridge
Ofln - Red Hot Chili Peppers Lyrics

Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
At times, I feel that I am all alone and lack a companion to depend on.

Sometimes I feel like my only friend
There are moments when I sense that my sole friend in this world is myself.

Is the city I live in, the city of angels
The city where I dwell, the city of angels, is the only entity that I can trust, rely on, and provides solace to me.

Lonely as I am, together we cry
Although I feel lonely, the city is always there to cry with me and be my partner in despair.

I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I traverse on the roads of the city since it's my friend and companion who understands my hardships.

I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
I stroll through the hills of the city since it knows me better than anyone else and accepts me as I am.

She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
The city acknowledges my good deeds and blesses me with its windy embrace.

Well, I never worry, now that is a lie
Although I pretend that I'm not anxious, deep within me, I worry a lot.

I don't ever wanna feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way I don't ever wanna feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way Yeah, yeah, yeah
I never want to encounter the emotions that I felt on that fateful day. Therefore, take me back to the city I adore and make me feel complete again.

It's hard to believe that there's nobody out there
It's difficult for me to come to terms with the fact that there's nobody in my life who cares about me.

It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
It's challenging for me to believe that I'm entirely isolated with no one by my side.

At least I have her love, the city, she loves me
Though I lack love from individuals, at least I have the city's love, and it cherishes my presence.

Lonely as I am, together we cry
Although I feel lonely, the city is always there to cry with me and be my partner in despair.

I don't ever wanna feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way I don't ever wanna feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way
I never want to encounter the emotions that I felt on that fateful day. Therefore, take me back to the city I adore and make me feel complete again.

Yeah, yeah, yeah Oh, no, no-no, yeah, yeah Love me, I say, yeah yeah One time
Expression of the singer's intense emotions towards the city and the desire for the city to reciprocate the same love back.

(Under the bridge downtown) Is where I drew some blood (Under the bridge downtown) I could not get enough (Under the bridge downtown) Forgot about my love (Under the bridge downtown) I gave my life away Yeah, yeah Oh, no, no-no-no, yeah, yeah Oh, no, I said, oh, yeah, yeah Where I stay
The singer reminisces a time when he underwent immense pain and trouble, and he would wander under the bridge in downtown. However, eventually, he found peace there and became so immersed that he forgot his love and even gave his life for that place. Despite this, he still cherishes it and calls it his home.
