Because only with myself can I be different
Showing joy isn't so easy for me
Can you forgive me
When I stand before you again and am silent?
I can't articulate myself very well
Hands tremble, cold sweat on my forehead
I'd so love to lose myself in conversations
But I'm guided by the fear of embarrassing myself
I press myself against the wall
Nothing again, you speak to me
Every gaze hits until I can't see anything anymore
Because I run, 'cause I need my time to heal
I thaw out when I'm alone with myself
Because it robs me of strength, when it gets loud, I get weak
Your voice constricts me
Because only with myself can I be different
Showing joy isn't so easy for me
Can you forgive me
When I stand before you again and am silent?
When I stand before you again and am silent
Why do you understand me
Like no other, when my heart breaks again?
Why are you there for me
When I'm lost in thought again and I don't sleep?
I hear your voice in an empty room
You hold me forever and I want out of here
And if I have a question, then I ask myself
And I run, 'cause I need my time to heal
I thaw out when I'm alone with myself
Because it robs me of strength, when it gets loud, I get weak
Your voice constricts me
Because only with myself can I be different
Showing joy isn't so easy for me
Can you forgive me
When I stand before you again and am silent?
When I stand before you again and am silent
