SORROW

I’m afraid to lay myself to sleep
with all the memories I keep

Eyes wide shut I see
how the true story told would be.

Feel like the smallest grain of sand
on the bottom of the sea,
but you still reach for my hand
while I’m falling so deep.

So full of sorrow,
that our souls broke up in flames.

I’m afraid to lose myself to be
like all the other ones you’ve seen

But I hope in vain
from the bottom of my heart
that one day we finally start.

So full of sorrow,
that our souls broke up in flames.
