The dreams I painted slip through my hands,

Do you resent your life?

I just want to hear

Your true voice.

A trembling key inside my bag,

A crow calling out to its friends.

I just want you,

Only you,

Just to see you.

Why do you live?

Who do you live for?

I just want you,

Only you,

Just to reach you.

Do you turn away from sorrow?

I don’t need what’s right,

I just want to know

The tears you hide.

Secrets, pain, the rain at night

Even if fear greets you every morning,

I just want you,

Only you,

Just to see you.

A lie you want to believe,

A prayer that doesn’t work,

A goodbye you can’t return from

Scream it,

Scream it,

Scream it

I don’t need what’s grand

Just to stay near you.

And someone else’s brilliance makes me hate my own shadow.

I just want to know

Sleepless nights press down on my chest,

A gentle voice hides a quiet storm behind it.

Like turning off a TV I watched out of habit,

My heart suddenly falls into darkness.

Still, I can’t let go of living.

Is life only made of pain?

Is success the answer?

I just want you,

Only you,

Nothing more

Just to reach you.

You don’t have to be perfect,

You can be selfish, flawed

The real you.

Only you,

A fading laugh in the distance,

A cloudy road I walk alone.

I just want you,

Only you,

Just to see you.

Days that don’t go as planned who’s to blame?

Sometimes I’m only watching the fire of dreams

From the bench, unable to join the fight.

Still, I cup the dying flame with both hands,

Unable to choose the end.

Is life a tragedy?

Is success a lonely place?

I just want you,

I just want to see you.
