Description
Sometimes silence sounds louder than music. Especially the kind that comes from exhaustion, when the body still remembers the pain and the soul does not want to return. Here, the morning smells of metal, and your pulse beats like a hammer in the air. Everything seems blurred: between escape and return, between anger and tenderness, between the desire to dissolve and the fear of disappearing completely.
There is a strange comfort in this darkness - as if someone were stroking your cheek while you burn in your own fever dream. The world does not become kinder, but it lets go. Just for a moment. So that you can return - a little different, with a new heartbeat, slightly less the same than yesterday.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Hold your hands out to me, touch a tender suffering
Hammering pulse fills an otherwise empty morning
I go running, running, world's a curse, get lost in
Roads are yawning, stretch across me now
I've been blacking out, but I will come back changed
You recall the soul, and I'll recall the body
Soft feet searching on, a kind anger is lurking
I've been blacking out, but I will come back changed
Oh, the long night
Is a bruise upon me, move upon me
I was already lost
It doesn't answer to me, nothing hear me
Oh, the long night
Is a bruise upon me, move upon me
I was already lost
It doesn't answer to me, nothing hear me
Warm, defiant, lonely, shields to hold me, hold me
Spoken perfectly, my ringing ears
Play my dreams for omens, replay, searching, hoping
Fevers oil me down then burn us out
I've been blacking out, but I will come back changed
You recall the soul, and I'll recall the body
Soft feet searching on, a kind anger is lurking
I've been blacking out, but I will come back changed
Oh, the long night
Is a bruise upon me, move upon me
I was already lost
It doesn't answer to me, nothing hear me
Oh, the long night
Is a bruise upon me, move upon me
I was already lost
It doesn't answer to me, nothing hear me
Oh, the long night
I was already lost
