Lyrics
Original
Translation
Bilingual
"Things could be worse"
But they could be a lot better, too
We dream in color
But not of me and you
And where I'm at now
I'd sooner slit my throat
Than try to force you to feel something
You don't
ย
We stare at shards of an
Ineffable reflection
Wondering which of us
Is too broken to deserve affection
ย
Nothing ends beautifully
Death is death
Pain derived from loss is "valid" if it leaves you bereft
I won't romanticize the blood on our sheets
Mourning the loss of someone who still breathes
I spend my nights
Fighting the urge to call you
Even if there's nothing new to say
Just to remind you I haven't changed
And in my absence
You're still okay
ย
There's no poetry to articulate true defeat
We stare at shards of an
Ineffable reflection
Wondering which of us
Is too broken to deserve affection
ย
(Deserve affection)
ย
I can't look anyone in the eye
And deny you were where my happiness fell dependent
Mortified to admit
That I'm nowhere near self-sufficient
