How long must we
Deny ourselves?
How wrong, are we
To not let ourselves be
For it is always this…
So be strong, be brave
For you’ll survive
You’re the sun & rain
It keeps you alive
And it is always this…
and nobody will be wrong
in the end … nothing’s wrong
Live from the inside
honour what you’re trying to hide
How long must we
design ourselves to fit?
How wrong are we
to not let ourselves be at peace
How wrong are we
not let ourselves be at peace
For it is always this…
Why is it always this…?
For it is always this…
