sin remedio vuelve al ruedo y ella me ha dejao en el suelo piensa que eso no es así pero yo la vi primero apuntando alto y dentro empezaste a rehuir cuando fuiste a nuestro encuentro no sabiamos que decir if I could see you I could understand how do you feel about it I try to find you in an empty house but I can’t stand the silence if I could see you I could understand how do you feel about it I try to find you in an empty house but I can’t stand the silence hace tiempo que la espero dando vueltas sin consuelo, quiero pero no puedo salir, no se quien perdió primero desde abajo mira al cielo en sus ojos arde el fuego eso no lo vio venir ya no hay nada que decir if I could see you I could understand how do you feel about it I try to find you in an empty house but I can’t stand the silence if I could see you I could understand how do you feel about it I try to find you in an empty house but I can’t stand the silence they got out of my house they seemed good they seemed fine she is crossing the line i can see through the window they got out of my house they seemed good they seemed fine she is crossing the line i can see through the window if I could see you I could understand how do you feel about it I try to find you in an empty house but I can’t stand the silence if I could see you I could understand how do you feel about it I try to find you in an empty house but I can’t stand the silence

if we could take all that hurts and put it away we could finally see what we are really made of everything you said could have flown away, could have flown away you took all i was and you put it on a grave, so you could finally show i was a disgrace waiting to collide, waiting on the side, waiting to collide if you loved me why you left me on the ground Ripped myself apart in pieces, threw them all i could never say the things you said out loud not a single time i’ve had that by my side i little bit sad but not a lot i little bit bad but not a lot i little bit sad but not a lot cos we are alive we are alive If we had never said the words we had made it worse And we had followed up with a silence curse We put it on the side, took it really far, took it really far if you loved me why you left me on the ground Ripped myself apart in pieces, threw them all i could never say all the things you said out loud none a single time i’ve had that by my side i little bit sad but not a lot i little bit bad but not a lot i little bit sad but not a lot

you found your rhythm, after all with no incentive but to stay at home Did what they expected to tell everyone sorry if I am sceptical i guess you did what you’ve always been told it’s not the vision that you’ve been sold even if you wanted back they would never understand how you could ever try to go always used to toe the line you refuse to realign do you ever feel resigned? you never tried cos it seemed way too far incarceration as your inner war sorry if no one told you before i guess you wanted to fall in love but your ambition never looked for more you woke up thinking it wasn’t enough, you were always waiting for nothing at all and now regretting you didn’t leave before (so funny somehow you decided to run away now you’ve realised you are trapped in your own cage) even if you wanted back the would never understand how you could ever try to go always used to toe the line you refuse to realign do you ever feel resigned? you never tried cos it seemed way too far incarceration as your inner war but you are falling apart cos it was meant to be but you’re trying so hard that get half between you are falling apart now you are falling apart now came back to hometown and understood why you were so down you are such a fool ready to marry after catholic school i guess it’s something conspicuous the way you try to conform to all but our mission will rescue us

What you think would happen if you woke up and all the things you’re running from just came back they had disappeared they had blacked out you were glad to forget front row to your fears well you better hold taking everything as it goes someone in the background tries to prove you wrong yeah you are wrong, but trying you are talking about it i don't hear a thing and you wanna know its hard to forget when you are being loved or you fall in love you are talking about it i don’t hear a thing and you want it you want it you are talking about i don't want to reveal what is left to know but sometimes you hit in a memory that has made you grow you are talking about it i don't hear a thing and you want it you want it would you want to feel your arms while falling let you weightless body dissolve, while floating did you run away from your ghost you are crawling, or is it everything you have lost (why you care?) are your expectations too high, your failing, bothering as someone in front smoking would you wanna let them down? they are frowning would you wanna let the down? they are growling all the pain we caused one to another pretending situations that were flawless all the pain we caused one to another, to another why am i always on the floor i deserve to let it go oh i've learnt to be on my own why do we always wait for more as if we never had enough empty handed choking up why does it feel it wasn’t me is it so hard to believe? i guess we deserve some empathy would you want to feel your arms while falling let you weightless body dissolve, while floating did you run away from your ghost? you are crawling, or is it everything you have lost (why you care?) are your expectations too high? your failing bothering as someone in front smoking would you wanna let the down? they are frowning would you wanna let the down? they are growling you are talking about but i dont hear a thing and you wanna know its hard to forget when you are being loved or you fall in love are your expectations too high your failing bothering as someone in fromt smoking would you wanna let the down? would you wanna let the down? you fall and you fall in love you fall and you fall in love you fall and you fall in love

prisoners 03:35
uuuh i’m changing would you evolve or rather fall? now I see what I’m choosing and I choose what I believe in don’t you see.. that what they installed into me is disappeared, you think i’m helpless cause uuuuh is heaven what you wait a life for? the wind is unfolding our bodies keep waving did we disagree? did you see the absence in the air like me you think i’m a helpless cause but no lord is leading me off leading me off leading me off uuuuh how can we recall that what they think is what we’re in for how can we live discussing if it glides or flotes? how would we know what we are supposed to believe or not? How would they know what they were prisoners for

universe 03:11
Shout get it off your chest If you are waiting for something holy, is this the universe? trying to tell me I shouldn’t worry I wish I could, but i just refuse to see it through the wall that I am facing I don’t understand what you are trying to tell me I don’t understand whatever you tell me Shout get it off your chest If you are waiting for something holy, is this the universe? trying to tell me I shouldn’t worry Shout get it off your chest If you are waiting for something holy, is this the universe? trying to tell me I shouldn’t worry I find it hard but i will get used to it stay behind the road that they are taking cause they follow and follow the mass, just assuming it wouldn’t be trash was that my fault? I know I didn’t meant to see them all as the ones you get used to as the ones you can lean on and trust, but the gut is not always right Shout get it off your chest if you are waiting for something holy, is this the universe? trying to tell me I shouldn’t worry Shout get it off your chest if you are waiting for something holy, is this the universe? trying to tell me I shouldn’t worry

I could only see them all As the ones that you recall Taking pictures of their own Does to feel less alone I could never do that I’ve tried to Wish you’ve never done that It’s what we fight for A suicide attempt to self isolate A battle for self love that is all in your head To show corrupted senses You could never do that You’ve tried to Wish you’ve never done that It’s what we fight for A suicide attempt to self isolate A battle for self love that is all in your head But it crumbles till the end You could never do that You’ve tried to Wish you’ve never done that It’s what we fight for
