Within a year now
Everythin will change
This life will open up new doors
Everything will rearrange
I still get asked
"Why aren't you so afraid?"
I'll give you this answer
"The stars will never fade"
Then she looks at me
As if I was the one who is crazy
I want to lock her up so she cannot betray me
This cold stare-down between the fire and the window
You know I could blow up
You know I won't shut up
Kill me softly as I break the glass
It's not the fall that will kill me
It is just this heart attack
I will not scream loudly, I will not scream at all
Standing there so far below, it's you who sees me fall
Then she looks at me
As if I was the one who is crazy
I want to lock her up so she cannot betray me
This cold stare-down between the fire and the window
You know I could blow up
You know I won't shut up
The police were called at a quater until 8
Although that's your favorite number, you know they will be late
Too late to catch me as I set fire to the ground
No one can catch me because no one is around
Just you
And you know this wasn't your fault
But you will lay there wishing it was you
The guilt is the only thing left to live
And your one last breath is the only one to give
Give it to me
Then she looks at me
As if I was the one who is crazy
I want to lock her up so she cannot betray me
This cold stare-down between the fire and the window
You know I could blow up
You know I won't shut up
You know I will blow up
You know I can't shut up(Silence me today)
Kiss me softly as I fade away (Kiss me, dismiss me)
Run away now, never to return (Keep running, it is your turn)
Light up the night with this new fire burning (Don't put it out, make it stay forever)
Then she looks at me
As if I was the one who is crazy
I want to lock her up so she cannot betray me
This cold stare-down between the fire and the window
You know I could blow up
You know I won't shut up
You knew I'd blow up
And now I blew up, shut up!
