Pain must be spoken
else you'll be broken
and you won't even notice
I can't speak out
it hurts too much

But I gotta overcome
The wound is there nevertheless
My screaming won't solve anything
but it will relieve this stress

The wound is there nevertheless
it just grows and grows and I look somewhere else
it's a good strategy, but you are still there
what's squeezing me so tight? I am out of breath!

Alice show me the way
the way to my own pain
so I can kick it out at once
You show me through my eyes
what I knew all the time

You make me sick! You make me feel all wrong!
I run away from pain, because pain is all I know
I oscillate between pure joy and hope
and sheer despair and ache in my heart

this eternal mismatch
i can't let myself be killed
but something's doing it
I don't care; I still moan in the in betweens

You never understood a thing! But Alice does!
Alice, have you thought of the damaged teens?
I did
