lyrics

[Verse 1: Evita Koné]
Tell me that it's so absurd that all that we have in this world
Is just a kind word. Tell me that it makes no sense that
When I used up all my strength it’s all I have left
Tell me that it's so absurd that all that we have in this world
Is just a kind word. Tell me that it makes no sense that
When I used up all my strength its all
I have left and, I have bled, I have said all that needs to be said
Been left for dead, heart heavy as lead
But in the end I still hold up my head. Hold up my head

[Verse 2: Dr Koul]
Childish dreams, run like streams
Teens, destined to be kings and queens
Partners in crime
I falsely thought that we’d end up as partners in life
Castle walls, painted us gray
Colorful memories, fading away
Dissolved, like sand monuments
Or angel wings drawn on front lawns
Frost, that we’re numb to
Damn – the last time I saw you
The passion and fire was gone from your eyes
Your beauty a far-off reminder of love’s passage in time
Nothing destroyed, it only transforms
At least that’s my hope for your newborn
Unfairly shoehorned into this world

[Verse 3: Imagine]
Oh your kingdom is stolen!
Wondering why did they take it away
Or did you just lose it yourself?
Unfaithful, untruthful you fell
Now it was so easy taking you down
But who’s gonna be picking you up?
The luck’s gonna be missing you much
When patience is waiting around
Now the soul that is hidden calls back
To get in the whole that you're digging.
You can’t hold back the feeling
You sold out your spirit, you thought it was finished.
The closer you get from things that you lost the harder it is to let go
And time can’t fill in all the tears that you dropped, hot enough to melt gold

[Trumpet solo by Evita Koné & Zacharie Ksyk]
