I'm writing this song through the distance
that we did not create.
Always alone, this sadistic
emptiness fills my guts,
life of a masoquist in love,
for a love that cannot grow old;
fears that grow deep in our thoughts.
And we cry
all alone, with our fears,
they are already here.
And we die
cause you know we are
together apart.
I'm crying these notes from the distance
that I cannot forget.
Heartbeats don't stop, I'm realistic,
living like this is like
dying by a sunrise at dawn,
watching how my smile trembles and falls.
I'm just one of those
dreamers that believe in hope...
And we cry
all alone, with our fears,
they are already here.
And we die
cause you know we are
together apart.
