My resistance is broken I can not even lift my head Left myself too wide open Now I pull back myself instead Is it true that although I'm numb it's burning? Is it true that outside the world keeps turning? And then it's you – you rouse in me the fire I need And it's true – you show me how to put me at ease And when you soothe you reach to pull me out from the deep What a fool – because you should be the one I relieve For when you rise and carry on and take me one step beyond You find the words that I'd never search for You try to make me strong and take me one step beyond You win the thoughts that I can not fight for My resistance gets weaker How to breathe when the air is gone? Can one lose what one lived for? How to end? – How to carry on? Soaking up the moonlight remorsefully – picking up the dirt devotedly How to keep on, to keep on? Exchanging a dime for misery – relinquishing hopes reluctantly How to keep on, to keep on?
