To Which I Owe the Pain

from Something to Die to by Paul Bäcklin

/

lyrics

Full of stripes, and of stars.
Can one night be this dark?
Feel the space between the bars.
Feel the pace of the heart.

I zoom in, I zoom out.
I feel pinned by the doubt.
I’m so small from the sky.
I am all, I can’t lie.

I really understand and buy the claim.
You stop the mind, you don’t need to complain.
It’s beautiful to notice all these things.
But also it’s so awkward and so lame.

It’s weird to be without using your brain.
Now every day just seems to be the same.
And I’m so fucking peaceful I’m insane.
It hurts, I’m scared and nothing is to blame.
It’s safe to say I never got the game
to which I owe the pain.
