Lyrics and translation
Original
Stay up late as I'm looking for some peace of mind.
I keep drinking, let my stomach settle. Just as it calms, a phone starts to ring, prompting me to unravel.
Dim blue lights just in case there's someone there outside.
How much longer 'til we reach the sunrise? The moment that I'm left alone, everything's terrifying.
As soon as you're gone,
I sit and I wait, and I sit and I wait until you come home.
It's like the feelings all faded. Running round and round. The same night. In repetition. Stay.
The nights sound like a stranger to me as I try to get some sleep.
Little bird got torn up by a stray. All red-tinted feathers and both broken wings.
Mercy came in the heel of my boot. Such terrible things that your kindness can do.
Dedicated time to licking at your wounds can't undo the hurt when they open anew.
Mercy hangs by the heel of a boot when being alone only darkens the view.
It only comes when you're away.
And when you're there, it makes me pray the clock would stay in detail.
Destroyed in just as quick repeal. The bird torn up.
Shallow breath in haste and the cat watching.
Coming back as I leave.
As soon as you're gone, I sit and I wait, and I sit and I wait until you come home.
Awake every day. Such a disheartening thing.
I sit and I wait, and I sit and I wait until you come home. It's always you. Little bird got torn up by a stray.
All red-tinted feathers and both broken wings. Mercy came in the heel of my boot.
Such terrible things that your kindness can do.
Dedicated time to licking at your wounds can't undo the hurt when they open anew.
Mercy hangs by the heel of a boot.
