You lifted my heart up and straightened its creases Then you dropped it and it shattered into a million pieces My mind keeps telling me to give it all up But my heart says otherwise; it doesn't tell me to stop I'm tired of wishing, I'm tired of waiting But when I turn the radio on, a love song's playing When I open my eyes, all I see is you Why is giving up so hard to do?

L'appel du Vide.
You lifted my heart up and straightened its creases Then you dropped it and it shattered into a million pieces My mind keeps telling me to give it all up But my heart says otherwise; it doesn't tell me to stop I'm tired of wishing, I'm tired of waiting But when I turn the radio on, a love song's playing When I open my eyes, all I see is you Why is giving up so hard to do?
(L'appel du vide is an impulse to jump when standing on a high ledge)
