When I look at the night sky, at the moon,
inside my chest I feel a heartache.
I feel my scars burning, I feel the sky turning crimson,
perhaps it's the shade of the sun setting in, or
perhaps it's my eyes turning red, my nose sniffles.
Our love was like a kaleidoscope,
Ever changing, a rollercoaster full of emotions.
Full of highs and lows, scars and burns,
and in that afternoon,
everything turned into stardust.
Everything, by fate, was set into motion.
And to cope with the pain of that day,
I found comfort in coffee.
I let this nicotine numb me up,
but I don't think you ever felt sorry?
For the chaos that you left in my life,
For the carnage that now my life is.
Once lovers, now strangers,
I tattoo on my heart this heartbreak.
So that I never forget the
metamorphosis of my immaturity
so that I can seek shade in the eucalyptus.
Not in a stranger's home, but in my own.
I planted that tree in case you let go.
You broke all my faith and belief.
oh, how wrong I was!
I actually thought that we'd be the same
even if lightyears leaped.
But we're clearly too hurt and in pain.
Since when did it begin?
I think it all started on that afternoon.
The kaleidoscopic change, since your birthday...
