[English]

I run from the liars, the fuel on the fire

I know I created myself

I know I can't fight the sad days and bad nights

But I never asked for your help

You got hurt

No, we don't belong together

So you took the love from my arms

Into the arms of yours

But I don't need a cure for me

I don't need it

No, I don't need a cure for me

I don't need it

No, I don't need a cure for me

I don't like the tension, the misapprehensions

About our nature in love

The glorious teachers are no use for creatures

Who knows how to play with the gods

You got nerves

But they never show unless they hurt

So you blamed it all on my love

The moving heart I got

But I don't need a cure for me

I don't need it

No, I don't need a cure for me

I don't need it

No, I don't need a cure for me

But I don't need it

No, I don't need it

...

Hm, please, no cure for me

(Mm-mm, mm-mm)

Please, no cure for me, cure for me

(Mm-mm, mm-mm)

Cure for me, please

No cure for me, cure for me

Cure for me, please (cure for me)

No cure for me, cure for me, cure for me

(And you need to know I don't need it) I don't need it

(And you should know) no, I don't need a cure for me

(And you need to know I don't need it) but I don't need it

(And you should know) no, I don't need a cure for me

(And you need to know I don't need it) I don't need it

(And you should know) no, I don't need a cure for me

(And you need to know I don't need it) but I don't need it

(And you should know) no, I don't need a cure for me
