Forgive us

Believe me
When I say
I tried so hard
Not to flee
Not to play
Dropped all my guards
Forgive me
For all this nonsense
I wish you could see through my lens
All the stars, all the stars
in the skies, in the skies
All the, all the stars
All the stars, in the skies
All the stars, all the stars
in the skies, in the skies
All the, all the stars
All the stars, in the skies
All the stars, all the stars
In the skies, in the skies
All the stars, all the stars
All the stars, in the skies
(All the stars, in the skies)
Believe me
I feel lonely
And I can't flee
Forgive me
For all this non sense
I wish you‘d have seen through my lens
Believe me
Can't foresee
And for that I'm sorry

Beneath the surface
06:15
|

|
The more I face the wind
The deeper my roots get
To find the few last drops
Of something I could call hope
Just enough of it
To create on the surface
This gloomy light of happiness
Shaped by those satin shades
Fading away
Fading away
As I became one
With those fake colours
That I’ve tried to
Extend to others
As I became one (with my self)
With those fake colours (fake colours)
That I’ve tried to (tried to)
Extend to others
I got exhausted
And I’ve found within me
In this hard shell of wood
My true reality
As I try to be
Which looks like the worst for me
I’ve found out that the sad picture
Is to pretend to be
In this third normality
I’ll need to find a way
To reshape my only escape
To be my own act again
Again

Drifting away
05:57
|
|||
|
Am I voluntary drifting away
At a slow pace in disgrace
In this downward spiral
Instead of looking to the endless space
Am I heading down in
In this suicidal cycle
In which I’ve been before
And back then caused me so much sore
And dragged me down on the floor
I’m falling back
At the beginning
Of my first act
Surprisingly climbing
Searching forward in time
I’m falling back
As I already felt
That crime
Surprisingly trying
To rewrite the code
As I relive that nightmare
She told me not to be scared
She told me not to be scared
(Aaaaaahhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhh)
Am I voluntary drifting away
At a slow pace in disgrace
In this downward spiral
Instead of looking to the endless space
Am I heading down in
In this suicidal cycle
In which I’ve been before
And back then caused me so much sore
And dragged me back down on the floor
Caused me so much sore
And dragged me back down on the floor
Back down on the
Back down on the floor
Back down on the
Back down on the floor
So much more
So much
So much sore

Discomposure

Each time I think about you
Each time I think about you
Each time It feels so untrue
Each time I think about you
(Be mine, will you be mine)
Each time I think about you
Each time I think about you
Each time it feels all untrue
Each time I think about you
(Be mine, will you be mine)
I feel tamed
By all that shame
Of thinking that the end of all
Could shift everything back to normal
To normal, to normal
Is it really brave
To escape the place
Where we belong
Or should I live the wave and
Face it all along
Face it all alone
Get it all done
And I feel so dreamy
Even if you play with me
You’re acting so stealthy
Each time I think about you
Feels like all I know, is a déjà vu
Should I let you (Will I ever be)
Should I let you go (Someone)
Should I fear you (Will I ever)
Should I feel you go (Someone)
Should I let you (Will I ever be)
Should I let you go (Someone)
Should I fear you (Will I ever)
Should I feel you go (Someone)
Should I fear you, Should I feel you go
(Will I ever be someone)
(Will you be someone, will you be someone)
Should I accept you, and just feel the flow (show)
(Will I ever be someone)
(Will you be someone, will you be someone)
Should I fear you, Should I feel you go
(Will I ever be someone)
(Will you be someone, will you be someone)
Should I accept you, and just feel the flow (show)
(Will I ever be someone)
(Will you be someone, will you be someone)

Reflection
03:48
|

|
You’re so fake
So desperate
For approval
But most of all
You’re so truthful to yourself
You’re so fake
So desperate
For approval
But most of all
You’re so truthful
To yourself
You’re so fake

Confession box

You’ve given me truth
You’ve given me enough
To believe that I could open my eyes
Why did you have to
Shut them off like that
Why did you have to become someone else
I really wish you would understand
I really wish you would understand
Someone else, someone else
Someone else, someone else
Someone else, someone else
Someone else, someone else
Thin is the line
Between both realities
I think I’d rather die
You’re so full of mysteries
It’s so painful
Not to be able to know
The truth is, I feel
Like everyone has used me
Like everyone was pleased
I wish you
I wish you
I wish you
I wish you
I need you
I ditch you
I need you
I ditch you
I need you
Why did you
I ditch you
I ditch you
Shut your feelings down
Shut your mind
Slowly killing myself inside
To get back to where I
To get back to where I belong
Better be dead inside
Than living with a dream
Filled with possibilities
That you didn’t wanna hear about
Hear about
Hear about
Hear about

She was asleep
05:58
|

|
My eyes are swelling
Can’t find their way to rest
Am I pretending
To find peace on this endless road of stress
Just a small window of it
To maybe find a way to get through it
And finally enter this elusive world
Where everything is whirled
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled (is whirled)
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled
Why is it so small
So impossible to reach
Why is it so close to me
But still can’t feel the breeze
Why is it standing in the hall
It’s such a tease
I can’t see you
You’re not matter
I can’t see you
You’re not matter
But I can feel you
Getting closer
I can’t see you
You’re not matter (you’re not matter)
I can’t see you
You’re not matter (you’re not matter)
But I can feel you
Getting closer
Breathe in, Breathe out, Breathe in
I’m still awake
Breathe in, Breathe out, Breathe in
I’m still aware
Breathe in, Breathe out, Breathe in
Is it my damn mistake
Breathe in, Breathe out, Breathe in
I’m still awake
Breathe in, Breathe out, Breathe in
I’m still aware
Breathe in, Breathe out, Breathe in
Is it my damn mistake
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled
Aaaaahhhh
Everything is whirled
I’m still looking for it
It’s so difficult to find something you knew
That isn’t physically there
That you’re so desperate to repair
It’s so unfair
It’s so unfair
To feel the peace that was once shared
Disappear in the air
With everything I’ve cared for
With everything I’ve cared for
What have I become…what have I become
What have I become…what have I become
What have I become…what have I become
(She was asleep)
What have I become…what have I become
What have I become…what have I become
What have I become…what have I become
(She was asleep)

I lost my doubts and pain in your smiling eyes
In which I still find shelter for my mind
As it eases all the torments, in the skies
In the burning water, I became so blind
I became blind
I became blind
I became blind
As it eases all the, torments in the skies
As it eases all the, things that are unlined
I lost myself in your magical eyes
In which I still put my trust fully blinded
As you captured all the stars, from the skies
You’ve created that ceiling, to ease my mind
As I was blind
I became fine
I found my mind
I was blind
I became fine
I found my mind
