lyrics

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)
