And when I look up at the night sky,
lit up by a billion lights,
I see how empty it is.
I turn around, three, four times,
only to see
how lifeless it is.
It all makes sense although it doesn't.
You write your name on every tile under my feet,
put your scent on all the single stars up there.
The bittersweet breeze tastes just like you, oh girl why can't I just love you.
When the cold wind kisses my skin,
I wonder where you are again.
I see your face with closed eyes only.
You make reality hurt.
You make me feel loved,
Always with you,
Always lonely.
You're my oxygen when I hate to breath.
And I need you just to live
Live without you, by the way
Ice cold stone and you took my heart
A hundred miles away,
You still feel my kiss goodnight
Adore you, golden as you are
Lights up my life, my whole existence
Loves me every day,
Makes me leave,
To be so lonely
I pretend to feel your presence,
Whenever you're not here.
You're never here.
Warm up my cold with a nonexistent blanket.
Scream out your soul on nonexistent songs.
Baby, you're just an illusion.
