so many streets from home
my feet hurt and I don’t
seem to mind the strain
it must be true: no pain, no gain
don’t mind me waiting here alone
a distorted, blurry sight
accompains me in these nights
while wandering near and far
I’m pondering how you are
do you mind me waiting here alone?
it’s never easy to say “no”
it’s mostly awkward doing so
but in the end it’s for the best
I guess…
ordinary, but different
interesting and not
a day to day scene
I seem to be lost in between
cars stopping, moving on
people walking home
nothing special, nothing new
it’s just another window view
and I, I’m thinking of you
well, I am thinking
I, I am just thinking
I’m thinking of you
spicy flavors in my cheek
same hot fix like every week
but nothing else feels new
beside the strangest window view
she’s got a smile
shining ten feet wide
even when it’s pitch-black
she’s got the plans
it’s all in her hands
even though they’re years ahead
I’m down on my kees
’cause I think that she’s
the girl with a gun, and
she’s on the run, yeah
soon a thousand miles away
so I pray
I’ll pray
against all odds we have tried
to make our issues subside
when others moved to say
“it doesn’t fit” but hey
we knew this from the start
is that a reason to keep apart?
I think not
although most of our days
have been full of fun and sane
words about this life
as we know it, how we fought
the struggle growing up
hurting memories of love
please, wake up
set it down, you will not hurt
anyone around but you and me
in the end, don’t dare to stray
don’t trust in what they say
how they genuinely feel
words can never tell
cast it away, you will not succeed
with good faith alone in this cold
cold world we call our own
and they’ll always do what they want
actions are plain truth
take a seat and fill this out
make your social environment proud
even though nothing’s gonna change
paying all those bills for
a bunch of gross deceivers and
getting nothing in return
I said countless times “don’t give in”
I’m sick of more explaining it
to all the idiots in this town
her hair is waving gracefully
and I get hooked up instantly
by her gaze in the summer light
she’s settling in, I’m moving out
sorry, but I can’t live with doubt
if I could, for you I would
been through it all
baby, it’s not easy
don’t slip away completely
clutching at your stakes
but then you go
although never leaving
you’re losing sense of feeling
chasing the fresh breeze
