Every time you talk to me it feels like
_____
Hopes are laid out to the wind
_____
That a full glass is half empty
_____
Every time you look at me I remember that
_____
While the picture is elsewhere, you know it
_____
If we travel without direction
Even if you want to, you won't meet me
_____
But if I wait for you on the edge without making noise
_____
To erase the distances that keep us apart
And meanwhile I'll survive
_____
I put a bit of your breath in my pocket
_____
Every time you hug me
_____
You have a dress for every occasion
_____
Don't make me promises out loud
Otherwise you won't listen to yourself
_____
But if I wait for you on the edge without making noise
_____
To erase the distances that keep us apart
_____
And meanwhile I'll survive
_____
I put a bit of your breath in my pocket
_____
We are the beauty, we are the bad weather
_____
We are the worst behind every flaw
_____
We've always been take it or leave it
_____
We who can laugh at every mistake
_____
There's no blame, no excuse that holds now
_____
There's no measure for this suffering
_____
Of which we're the party at fault
_____
Of which we're the injured party
_____
But if I wait for you on the edge without making noise
_____
You can erase the distances that kill us a little
And meanwhile I'll survive
_____
I put a bit of your breath in my pocket
