The day we first met by coincidence Maybe a warm memory had touched us The sound of my heartbeat That had stopped a long time ago Can be heard especially louder tonight
I hear my pounding heart Memories of you call out to me When I close my eyes, it gets even clearer I try to hold you when I call out to you But the tears flowing down my cheeks answer me instead
Gathering the crumbs of my thoughts Around my feet Are my nails long enough? I can’t pick any of them up Yellow balloons in the sky Telling me to turn on the light and sit During this unexpected journey Have I met a friend?
Not everyone can have their dreams come true Even though they get closer and closer I don’t even think I’m halfway there But I’m already standing in darkness Where did my dream of flying go?
Words I tell myself like a habit “Everything will be fine, it’s alright Some day, you’ll be able to smile” Awkwardly into the mirror It’ll all pass Soft tears I held back all night It’ll all pass Times when I wanted to quit, when my heart grew tired
