lyrics

A thousand miles we went
A thousand scenes have passed us by
I feel like yesterday, you laid next to me;
held my hand

A thousand years are gone
A thousand words were spoken
since the last time you came ‘round;
us together, being proud

I feel alone now
You just took it from me
A warm part of myself
I need help somehow
Please stop by and see
All that’s left; an empty shelf

This is the real life
why is it so harsh to me?
It’s gone, my lullaby
I want to hear it now,
you know that I’m still here
I just need an alibi

It’s easier to hate than love so please, so please, so please
Just let me go, let me go, let me go, oh, on and on and on
It’s easier to hang on to the past than let it go, oh!
Let it go - oh, let it go - oh, let it go - oh, go - oh, go - oh, go!

Don’t suck me in, don’t drain me out
Just let me be, just be without, without me!

A thousand hours spent
A thousand failed attempts to
Find something that substitutes this emptiness through amplitudes

A thousand thoughts I had
A thousand skies I painted with
Gods and virgins on my lap that show me love and therefore help

I feel alone now
I know there’s nothing for me
That will hold me but myself
Forget the help right now
I will make it, you will see
I’ll gain some ground; fill up the shelf

This is the real life
There is no escaping from it
Although it seems to be so wrong
I need to feel it now
I need to smell this shit
Only hard knocks make me strong
