You always say we're going to places
You always say so many things
Finally it becomes nothing
but your bed

You always say you care
you always say I'm the one
but our conversations
are falling short so far

we are shallow, somewhat flat
we are drifting apart

You are afraid of transitions
but there's no reason why
although the question of kisses
always puzzles me too a lot
But I don't really mind
I want you much more than what my body does

Do you see the fear in me
and that drives you away?
What is in your mind that I cannot understand?

I don't feel any loved, we are not what we used to.
Lies and hiding, cannot be our path.
Everyone talks around.
It's obvious I'm being let down.
I don't care, but truth be told. Things have changed.

It's like a chain around my neck
keeping me still and i'm not free still
it's a yes and a no
all coming through your lips.

But...we are so different, we come from different paths.
You come from life, crowds, I come from air, fire.
I come from loneliness, not knowing who you are.
Finding truth in the strangest spot.
Struggling till death, death do us part.

But I have also witnessed the beauty
of the strange, bright night lights.
My world is psychotic, and so is (turns) my love.
Love is a threat, but it pays off.

Where do we go? Where you want to go.
I know we are not
simply names in each other's lives
to be put away

I fought monsters and myself in your name.
Have you ever done the same?
There's something deeply wrong with us
we cannot give it a name
There is something deeply true with us
we cannot give it a name
