[English]

I was thinking 'bout space, and not the one between us

Where we can take a dozen worries and leave 'em there

Nothin' falls, nothin' fades, nothin' withers away

Mm, I was thinking 'bout space, and not the one between us

Maybe in another world

Where I own that I'm jealous and I did some damage to us

Maybe we will never know

'Cause the truth is on silent, but our egos are talking loud

You hit where it hurts, 'cause I gave you the bullets, mm

Maybe in another world

Swear there's a world you dealt with your things, I dealt with my things

Know there's a place when we're offbeat we're finally in sync

Where I feel okay and I feel no pain, and all my resentment got nothin' to say

Before everything changed

Maybe in another world

Where I own that I'm jealous and I did some damage to us

Maybe we will never know

'Cause the truth is on silent, but our egos are talking loud

You hit where it hurts, 'cause I gave you the bullets, mm

Maybe in another world

Mm

Maybe in another world

Where I own that I'm jealous and I did some damage to us

Maybe we will never know

'Cause the truth is on silent, but our egos are talking loud

You hit where it hurts, 'cause I gave you the bullets, oh

Maybe in another world

Maybe in another world

I was thinking 'bout space, and not the one between us
