[English]
To those who ask, things keep the same
I water my flowers often
I leave at nine for the same place
I think about telling you
But I think there's no need
For you to know about my life
Constantly searching for a way out
From impulses I don’t want to have
So I don’t have to explain myself
And I lie when they ask
And I pretend everything's fine
For no one, after all
Not even I believe in myself
And I might even say yes
And I might even disguise myself
But I can't be like this
Not even I believe in myself
To those who see, the days always remain
Innocent superficialities
Ready-made phrases, superficial
Ideal loves
Someone asks about you
And I always reply the same thing
Invariably the same thing
That it’s over and it's better this way
So I don’t have to explain myself
And I lie when they ask
And I pretend everything's fine
For no one, after all
Not even I believe in myself
And I might even say yes
And I might even disguise myself
But I can't be like this
Not even I believe in myself
Not even I believe in myself
I lie when they ask
Not even I believe in myself
Not even I believe in myself
Not even I believe in myself
