Down my way
Ain't nothing but rain
The sooner I'll face it
The sooner I'll be fine
I think I'm leaving, my dear
To find the key for this coffer
Aren't you tired of suffer?
There must be something out there
Something I'm missing
Something is worth to live for
Something I couldn't find alone
If I'll ever return
please, dear, don't open the door
I'm sure that you'll see me
Giving up very soon
And for every tear that I shed
Maybe I will take a step back to you
And one day you'll show me
Things I didn't know at all
All that I'm missing
All that is worth to live for
All that I couldn't find alone
Oh, am I going crazy?

I've found a way to do it but barely brings
a feeble, glaring platitude.
I've checked again and everything
is where it used to be.

Didn't say I'll miss you, ladybird
I was drowning yet down in the swamp
Of course I won't be sad, I mean,
there is no need
To walk backwards in the storm
Now that I know
That nothing really matters
Nothing really matters
Found you awake early in the morning
I wish I said that I was really sorry
Cause nothing has changed since the war has started
and I'm getting tired
because nothing really matters
Nothing really matters
Didn't say I'll miss you, ladybird,
I was too weak to get close enough.

So how should I proceed?
A blessing, or a cage?
Or I drown you down in rage
or soon it'll fade
What if you were alone?
No credits and no faults
And no voice to read them through
Would you still destroy it all?
And the faces around me that state
I've surely failed
And the voices inside me that sing
my song of defeat
Some sort of plant will grow
From scorched earth of yours
But now I'm not sure I care
Or I ever did
And the faces around me that state
I've surely failed
And the voices inside me that sing
my song of defeat

To dig inside the cold stone
Of unfair gradients
To row against the current
The background of all things
I'll swallow every simulacrum of you
Each light they shed
enlightens shadows behind me
It has to be the knife I peeled you with
It has to be the skin I used to breath
I've done just as you told me
I've turned an empty page
Your name, small print, on top of it
Couldn't you write a little more?
Can't stand this stubborn silence
Is worth like words back then
Raixera in my empty room
Baby, I came to hate it hard
It has to be the knife I peeled you with
It has to be the skin I used to breath

I'm happy
I fucking swear it
Now take a look with your very eyes
I can't lie, I cannot lie
I'm happy
You made me happy
Now put these coins upon my eyes
I am fine, I am so fine
Missed call
Trellis on a fresco
At eight I have a free fall
Let it go to rest
(I've been chewed to a bunch of bones)
But I'm happy
(I've been chewed to a bunch of bones)
Oh, I'm happy
(I've been chewed to a bunch of bones)
Seems like I have missed your call
(I've been chewed to a bunch of bones)
Pointless having any hope.
