Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
He told me sweet lies of sweet loves
Heavy with the burden of the truth
And he spoke of his dreams, broken by the burden
Broken by the burden of his youth
ย
"14 years", he said
"I couldn't look into the sun"
She saw him laying at the end of my gun
Hungry for life
And thirsty for the distant river
ย
I remember his hands
And the way the mountains looked
The light shot diamonds from his eyes
Hungry for life
And thirsty for the distant river
ย
Like the scar of age
Written all over my face
The war is still raging inside of me
I still feel the chill
As I reveal my shame to you
I wear it like a tattoo
I wear it like a tattoo
I wear it like a tattoo
