Waiting to be saved
By a prince or a farmer
Doesn't matter
Unless they are not late
Waiting to be saved
From all the thunders
All the pain
She waited and waited
But no one seemed to come
She was loosing hope
she thought all is done
She thought all is gone
´cause no one came to save her
Noone brought the sun
She was standing there
In the porin grain
Then she realized
She doesn't need to be saved!
She doesn't need princes or farmers
She doesn't need rescue
She doesn't need help
She is fine alone
And in the rain
And now even sometimes
It seems to her
Rain and thunders take turns
She knows
Thunders aren't for ever
And sun always returns
My biggest sin…
And I tried and I tried to be everything for you
but you left me there in the middle of the room
and I tried and I tried over again
but you didn´t know what you wanted
and now we´re here again
you told me you liked me
then lied to my face
you told me you don´t have anyone else
you said everything was fine
yet you went out with her
and ten others at that time
and I tried and I tried
to be everything for you
but you didn't want me to be there for you
and tried and I tried all over again
but you don't want to be saved
by me or anyone else
you like the way you you´re miserable and sad
cause you don't know how to be happy or
how not to be bad
but I tried to teach you
I tried to show you how
yet you pushed me away so far,
I didn't even see you at that time
and now I turned my back on you
and you´re mad at me you say
I left you too soon
that I didn't try
that I didn't try enough
but it's a lie and you know it
so leave me, I'm fine
I'm fine without you
I'm fine without your eyes
your beautiful brown eyes
that are autumn like
even that I love fall
and I love colorful leaves.
I love myself more.
So be quiet and leave
you had your chance,
and you blew it in the dark
I tried to be your light
but you didn't want me.
so, I guess that´s the final goodbye
I don't want you think I hate you somehow
I don't, you're forgiven
but that's not what it's about
I forgave you because of myself
not because of you
you can say I am selfish
but that's fine ´cause it's true
I am selfish, self-centered and mean
and you may think
why do I say such things about myself
but I guess it's easier to
know you're bad
then one day wake up
and let others tell you that
I rather be selfish and mean and unkind
than to be miserable and sad
with you by my side
cause that's all you are;
mean and rude
cause if you had a heart
at least you´d tell me the truth
my heart may moves on
but my mind stays for
some unknown reason
why did I deserve that?
what did I do?
it stays written on me
like scars on a skin.
I loved you, and I guess
that was the biggest sin…
