I tried to be somebody else
the person you wanted me to be
but I missed something in between.

Sick love
Beginnings never last forever
End this before we start.
If it’s true…
It’s over
Although I look out the window every day,
I’ll pretend I cannot see you.
I don’t want you to get hurt, honey.
Just leave.
It’s stronger than me,
but I must stop it.
Believe me…
That’ll be better.
It will end,
before it starts for good.
It must be so and don’t try to change it.
I’ll just leave.
I know it’s stronger than you,
but you must stop it.
Believe me…
That’ll be better.

A boy from nowhere
He wants to go back home,
but there’s no one at home.
There’s no place
for him in this world.

I wanted to disappear so badly that I became invisible.
Wake me up
The sun is rising
and I only see a glow
breaking through the sleepless night.
Everything ends
when everything starts.
Please, don’t wake me
I’m not ready yet.
The sun is setting
and I only see a faint glimmer
breaking through my closed eyes.
Everything starts
when everything ends.
Wake up until it’s too late.

I remember everything…
You weren’t there
You weren’t there
but you were with me
in my mind.
You weren’t there
but I dreamed about you
last night.
You weren’t there
but you were with me
in my heart.
You weren’t there
but i thought about you
that day.
You weren’t there
but I knew
you were with me
you thought about me
you dreamed about me.

Cannot
You keep telling me
but I can only hear a rustle.
What does it actually mean?
It’s too fast
to love you yet.
Somehow I cannot feel it.
