You never saw daylight
I kept you inside
safe
not for you

but for me
and the village and everything near me
and everything dear to me
and everything else

you never saw daylight
locked up in deep cellars
chained and held quiet
misunderstood

You never saw daylight
because if you would
you would fly over the world
spitting fire, wrecking everything

you'd be roaring and roaring
hurting and destroying
I don't trust your self-control
so I hide you inside

You're not a dragon
or a villain
you're much more dangerous
you're my own heart

I can't find a box big enough
Emotion
I'm not supposed to deal with
Words
that never form a line

I started running
the path
still visible
trackmarks of me
crawling
nowIi'm going the other way

forget Progress
forget Opening yourself up
forget
all
Hope

keep running
you didn't come far yet
it's easy
to reach me
the safe zone

here you don't need
to deny
anything
but you

I love you
I feel your pain, you're hurting
you're hurting
it hurts so much I might explode

I'm not with you
I can't break the distance between us
I can't inject happiness into your bloodstream
I can't even give you hope.

I'm with you
your tears are echoing on my face
We're both alone
and so so lonely

Please let me stay with you
so you can stay with me.

Dit is niet echt
je mag het vergeten
Wat niet hardop gezegd
nooit hardop gezegd
bestaat niet
een herinnering
naar iets wat je droomde
je mag het vergeten
jij bent de schrijver
dit is jouw leven
als het niet echt is
is het niet echt
gebeurd zonder gebeuren
je mag het ontkennen
maar dat hoeft net
want het is al niet echt
als jij het nooit
hardop
toegeeft
zal dit nooit
echt
zijn gebeurd

It's all coming
the world
responsibilities
it's full of it.

It's all coming
the pressure
your life
make something of it.

It's all coming
stress and worries
pain and fear
and it's okay.
You know you have to go through it.
You know there is no other way.
And it's worth it - you know that too.

It's all coming
but right now it's all still far away
right now you get to rest.
So hit the button
and snooze.

Strong girl,
you're not half as messed up
as you think

Strong girl,
you're a work in progress
but you're working
so that's fine

Strong girl
you'll figure out your problems at some point
but today
all you need
is to smile

Doe je zorgen weg
er is genoeg wind
blaas ze weg
en vergeet ze

Haal die last
van je schouders
en voel weer
*** licht het is

*** licht je bent
als je alleen jezelf
nog maar dragen moet
Vederlicht
