evening

dissolve

Each time I act so cold to you
I had no time to think it through
Your words couldn’t reach my head
So they took my tongue instead 

I know it won’t be long
Cause I’ve never been strong
But when I look in your eyes
My doubts hide and your time flies

I’ve tried to understand
Now I don’t know if I can
You took me by surprise
And I’ve lost the will to fight

I can’t convince you to stay
Despite alternative ways
But I know in the end
We’ll know to love ourselves

I know it won’t be long
Cause you know I’ve never been strong
But when I look in your eyes
My doubts hide and your time flies

I’ve tried to understand
Now I don’t know if I can
You took me by surprise
And I’ve lost the will to fight

I’ve tried to understand
Now I don’t know if I can
You took me by surprise
And I’ve lost the will to fight

Will

I feel more lone by the day
Ever since you been away
Don't wanna be by myself
But I still don't want anyone else

Although I have told you it's over
You know it still breaks my heart
Cause right now I just want to be close to you
And that feeling brings be back to the start

I can't stop thinking about you but I know now
I have to live without you and get over
I can't stop thinking about you but I know now
I have to live without you and get over you

I remember all of the times
You made me laugh til' I'd cry
But each time we'd disagree
You brought up all the worst sides of me

Although I have told you it's over
You know it still breaks my heart
Cause right now I just want to be close to you
And that feeling brings be back to the start

I can't stop thinking about you but I know now
I have to live without you and get over
I can't stop thinking about you but I know now
I have to live without you and get over

I can't stop thinking about you but I know now
I have to live without you and get over
I can't stop thinking about you but I know now
I have to live without you and get over you

Solitude

Thinking About You (feat. Sofia Popek)

I forgot what you said last night
When we turned off the lights
But I know what you meant today
When you walked away

I've only seen you from afar
But now I'm sick of acting strong
I've been doing this for so long
And now I see how I've been wrong

In my glass your face escapes
And leaves me nothing left
Leaves my dark and somber cape
Burning and possessed

But I see you inside my eyes
And you always shine
(so bright)

I've only seen you from afar
But now I'm sick of acting strong
I've been doing this for so long
And now I see how I've been wrong

(I've only seen you from afar)
(But now I'm sick of acting strong)
(I've been doing this for so long)
(And now I see how I've been wrong)

(I've only seen you from afar)
(But now I'm sick of acting strong)
(I've been doing this for so long)
(And now I see how I've been wrong)

Wrong

What am I to say 
When there is no way
You wouldn’t change either way 
Cause I’ve got debts to pay 

I have you in my head 
You have me in someone’s stead 
So ask me over again 

I hate the ways that I pretend 
I hate the ways in which I fall in love with you again

My words are left on read 
but you don’t seem to understand
I want to take you back 
But you don’t seem to think I can

When you’re reading me so easily
Are you reading something good? 
I want to know cause 
Maybe you could take me 
Farther than I ever thought I could 

You could take me farther than I
You could take me farther than I
You could take me farther than I

I can’t breathe no more knowing
I’m afraid to show you and 
It took me a while to see 
You’re afraid of it too 

I have you in my head 
You have me in someone’s stead 
So ask me over again

I hate the ways that I pretend 
I hate the ways in which I fall in love with you again 

My words are left on read 
But you don’t seem to understand
I want to take you back 
But you don’t seem to think I can

When you’re reading me so easily
Are you reading something good? 
I want to know cause 
Maybe you could take me 
Farther than I ever thought I could

You could take me farther than I
You could take me farther than I
You could take me farther than I
Maybe you don’t think you can but 
You could take me farther than I

You Could Take Me

In solitude
There’s no use
To find the care
In what we do

It‘s broken us
From one to two
And left a void
To think it through
In solitudes 

I see her eyes see through mine 
Catch her words to get by 
I'm stuck with thoughts on my mind
Of all the things we never tried

I contemplate what could have been
Abiding to an unreal dream
I keep on writing all these songs
Cause sometimes it feels good to be wrong

A piece of mind
Is what I need
To lose the hope
That she needs me

As time goes by
I might pursue
Another life
With somebody new
That's what I'll do

I see her eyes see through mine 
Catch her words to get by 
I'm stuck with thoughts on my mind
Of all the things we never tried

I contemplate what could have been
Abiding to an unreal dream
I keep on writing all these songs
Cause sometimes it feels good to be wrong

I see her eyes see through mine
Catch her words to get by 
I'm stuck with thoughts on my mind
Of all the things we never tried

I contemplate what could have been
Abiding to an unreal dream
I keep on writing all these songs
Cause sometimes it feels good to be wrong
