when it's all about love

then it can't be enough

when you is what defines me

then I'm being my own ruber

vanished and gone

have I ever been here

how I learned to disappear

how I learned to not be here

silence is violence

so words seem to be the cure

but they are just little crutches

they don't get us halfway through

because what I feel for you

is to be verbally left out

no words mean no perception

that is how I

learned to disappear

how I learned to not be here

and when laughter is kept within

and tears are all I got

to express sorrow and beauty

then this is not enough

wash me away

turn into a shade of grey

that is how I

that is how I learned to disappear

how I learned to not be here

and what I wish for me

is the strength to wait and see

and what I wish for us

is the guts to run and pass

all the stupid things that scare us

all the stupid things that make

all the stupid things that scare us

all the stupid things that make us

disappear
