[English]

Oh, I can't leave, but I can't be in this place

This must all be an illusion, skipping frames

Years of living with a cold and empty space

And it haunts me every time I think I'm safe

Do you feel love?

I know I don't

With no one to hold

Do you feel love, love, love?

Do you feel love?

When you're alone

Do you feel at home?

Do you feel love, love, love?

Do you feel -?

...

Like a frenzy, like an ocean overflowed

This must all be just an accident at most

Oh, I'm changing, and I feel more like a ghost

Like a specter in your headlights on the road

Do you feel love?

I know I don't

With no one to hold

Do you feel love, love, love?

Do you feel love?

When you're alone

Do you feel at home?

Do you feel love, love, love?

Do you feel love?

...

Something you're missing made you who you were

'Cause I've kept my distance, it just made it worse

But I've learned to live with the way that it hurts

...

Something you're missing made you who you were

'Cause I've kept my distance, it just made it worse

But I've learned to live with the way that it hurts (hurts)

...

Do you feel love?

...

I know I don't

With no one to hold

Do you feel love, love, love?

Do you feel love?

I know I don't

With no one to hold

Do you feel love, love, love, love?

...
