[English]

This f***ing world

In this f***ing world, I’m the only stupid

I lost my way, I lost my aim

Dumbest person alive

Let’s just forget all of this, let’s just laugh through all of this

Because this comfort is meaningless

On my way back home I get choked up

Keep feeling like crying, wuh uh uh

I just wanna find myself before I disappear completely

When I was young and watched cartoons I wondered why I couldn’t be

The main character like I would see, my heart’s all too blackened

Isn’t there anyone who could trade their heart with mine just for a day?

In this f***ing world, I’m the only stupid

I lost my way, I lost my aim

Dumbest person alive

From now on I’ll fight for my life

For my own good, fight for my life

We’re so used to feeling numb in this life

Now I just wanna find myself

I’m getting so tired dreaming by myself

I’m so sick of it all now, just wanna give up

Don’t wanna be an embarrassment tomorrow for the me I knew yesterday

Because this commitment is meaningless

I look so dumb it’s almost ridiculous

Keep feeling like crying, wuh uh uh

I’m getting so numb to this life that it feels like I’m shrinking away

I got a secret I can’t tell and it’s turning to tears again

I can’t tell a soul, I’m too ashamed for that

Isn’t there anyone who could trade their heart with mine just for a day?

In this f***ing world, I’m the only stupid

I lost my way, I lost my aim

Dumbest person alive

From now on I’ll fight for my life

For my own good, fight for my life

We’re so used to feeling numb in this life

Now I just wanna find myself

We’re so used to feeling numb in this life

Now I just wanna find myself
