You are too afraid to risk it all,
holding on to what is dear to you...
You envy darkness
for the fear of going blind....
You love the little cringes life gives to you
afraid of the stillness that bores
and you thought it all comes
at no cost....
it gives you an illusion of pleasure,
making you buy the pain.....

My eyes are heavy
and my head is numb,
I see everything,
everything that is going around me...
They think I am dead,
they tell me I am dead....
But this is not death,
this is life....
The life beyond the breathing,
The life beyond the sounds,
The life of silence.....
You are coming,
coming to get me,
come quietly for your footsteps are bothering me....
This is not your place,
this place is mine....
I am dressed in darkness,
will you recognise me, my dear life?

I saw them lying,
I saw them cheating,
I saw them screwing one another,
then I saw them teaching us the meaning of love...

I saw them fighting,
I saw them screaming,
I saw them doing shitty things,
then I saw them building their delicate castles...

I saw them chasing,
I saw them running away,
I saw them hiding themselves,
then I saw them dying from the regrets...

I saw what they did,
I saw it all,
and I kept quiet,
for I was fucking one of them...
