[English]

You found the best of me inside your feelings

The worst of me was waiting for that evening (Evening)

It's just me these days, I can't say I'm great

I can't stop seein' your face on all these ceilings (Ceilings)

You saved me for the last time, I'm alright (I'm alright, I'm alright)

I'll find somebody else to watch me die (Watch me die, watch me die)

Somebody I can push away and reel back in

Like the bait that I am, I am

So let me know, let me know when we gonna find the time (The time)

(The time) So let me know, let me know when I get a little bit wise

If you hear me count to four

Sedate me til I'm normal

...

Won't you be a darling, feel my rage

...

Let me feel fantastic, broke my cage

Hold my breath, until you call my name, again

I can't say what's on your mind but I know we think the same (The same)

So let me know, let me know when we gonna find the time

So let me know, let me know when I get a little bit wise

If you hear me count to four

Sedate me til I'm normal

...
