One more day
Stuck in my head
We just never reach the same
I wonder how good it would
Be if you love me better
Drifting sidelines, lose my touch
I never thought I could yearn so much
Go back to driving old cars, vroom vroom vroom
They're calling out my heart
Your voice like the good old days the'll never gonna last
Eu sei que um dia eu vou te perdoar mas ate la e pedir demais (I KNOW SOMEDAY I'LL FORGIVE YOU BUT TIL THEN IT'S TOO MUCH TO ASK)
We are always grouped together you and I
Finding shelter on the crook of a line, higher notes take a place into a new plan
Play that guitar, sing to me again
Let's make a new song
One more day...
She's always been asking too much, always lazy I know
He wonders why, uh, I wonder why too
Mama took care of us alike, the whole world fits in my hand so nice
Always dream for a place where time stops, hunger doesn't matter cause
We both so fly, we look so good together
Life around us seems so peaceful
We don't care for one who breach trust first
Fuck those who left us in pain
Fuck those who play that game
He nos deixou, nao importa, a gente nao liga
Drift sidelines
I'll never play a victim around you
Don't try to be a victim around you
And I'm so tired
And I'm so tired and I know that you're up now and I know that you can hear my voice
Let's make one thing clear, you just don't understand me
Let's make one thing clear, you don't understand

I wrote this song about family wounds. Siblings who grew up together and turned out to develop a lot of issues among each other due to parental misguiding and lack of understanding of each other's souls. I honestly feel as if I am karmic linked to my siblings , yet at times we can't seem to see eye to eye, or maybe we just love one another so much that we can't bear to watch the other suffer.
I hear many voices in this track. Not just my personal one, describing how my brother and I would drift sidelines, and sing to music together. I hear my sister's voice and I hear my brother's voice in certain sentences and thoughts. Maybe it's projection.
I'm the happiest when I'm loving my family and I'm the saddest when we all hurt and feel misunderstood.
