lyrics

I've seen a white sheet
It was pointing at me
Start. How to tear myself apart.
Ok, it's a different path but neither a word,
better a sword, just not the end of the world.
Back. Thought about a mistake, I needed a brake, so fake.
Hush. Comfortable way to crush. Better reduce me to ash.
Now. Trying to go on somehow, nothing can bring me down.
A new pair of glasses, maybe some practice, that's
It. I'll take a new pic. I smile, goodbye from a million miles,
Don't worry, I'm sorry if I'm not so kind.
Cry out in the back of your soul
You won’t know what is waiting for you
Anything that won’t ever grow up
In the sand, everything to lose
Cry out in the back of your soul
You won’t know what is waiting for you
Anything that won’t ever grow up
In the sand, know you're just chalk on a blackboard
The dawns are fading
My breath is leaving
Crack. It was not my broken heart. It was so better so far.
Go. Better to know before. No other chance, no more.
Black. All the colors in my head. Who could ever misread?
Who asked for silence? Maybe a license to escape.
I don't know how a sheet is made, I'm looking for a way
To forget, to forgive, just another day.
Maybe not, I will run, I will stop this rage,
I'll be free, I won't be a small rat in a cage.
Better walk alone for a ghost
I'll be waiting for a ghost
Cry out in the back of your soul
You won’t know what is waiting for you
Anything that won’t ever grow up
In the sand, everything to lose
Cry out in the back of your soul
You won’t know what is waiting for you
Anything that won’t ever grow up
In the sand, know you're just chalk on a blackboard
