Mother see, that all my life
I planted flowers to survive,
and as they faded I stopped to speak.
I painted flowers and nobody knows why...
No awakening, no lullaby,
I only felt the need to try,
to have the guts or the stupidity
to grab for stars, that I can't reach at all.
Father see, that I have tried
to find that angel deep inside
that you once promised I would meet,
and once again I ended in defeat.
Even here I could feel your eyes,
heard your whispers and felt your eyes.
Brother said "come back to life";
I asked some friends and nobody knew why...
Nobody had ever seen my flood of tears,
I can't believe you found me here.
Nobody had ever seen my flood of tears,
I can't believe you found me here.
It took some time to find these words,
I wrote them down in hope that they might help.
Watch me walk barefoot on glass,
insecure as only a newborn child can be.
Others came to laugh at me,
they pointed fingers as I could see,
believe me saying it's not the skin,
it's the stranger living deep inside.
Mother see, that all my life
I painted flowers to survive,
and as they faded I stopped to paint.
I fell asleep and nobody knows why.
Father see, that I have tried
to build a world with only me inside.
Millions of flowers surround my bed,
now I still grab for stars and I can reach them all...
Nobody had ever seen my flood of tears,
I can't believe you found me here.
