For all this time I loved you
Pathetic I know
But it was something so beautiful
When I would sit by the station
Lost in the ocean of your thoughts
with the newborn memories of that week
I fidgeted here and there
So much that the time forgot to be itself
and suddenly I was home
For all this time I loved you
Pathetic I know
But it was something new
expanding frontiers, new feelings
Or maybe a revival of older ones
A reignition of cinders
Just listening to you in the crowd
Or watch your skin in different shades of daylight
Or feel your name in my mouth
A music, a hymn or maybe poetry
For all this time I loved you
Pathetic I know
How can I be addicted to something so cruel?
I always watched your hands tracing the banisters
As you moved up, further and further away
And a only a thin vision of yours remained
Thin as a smoky trail, rising from a burnt wick
tired of chasing you, I'll cry, begging you to stop
Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic
For all this time I loved you
Pathetic I know
How can I be such a fool?
I confessed my love with silence
but it didn't work so I wailed it out
And it flew over you
Until the silence came back to fill in the vacuum
Pushing me away from you
So far away, but closer than ever before
For all this time I loved you
Pathetic I know
Because there was no point to this
How do you do it though?
Making me believe that it was all my fault
For always being there for you
For telling you how I feel
For burdening you because you don't care
For making you say ''get lost and go''
So I'll go
Pathetic I know
