[English]
I’m not quite what you wanted
And there are days
That I don't really know how to reach you
They're not poems
They're my own things
Or are you your head in Mars?
And I no longer know
If what I do to you makes you feel good
I don’t even know anymore
If what I do for you makes you feel good
I've already tried
To change everything for you
But I don't even know anymore
How to make you happy
Does love still exist here?
Do you still see yourself in me?
Was it me who let us fall apart?
I'm not quite what you wanted
And there are days
That I don't really know how to reach you
Poems aren't enough
They're my own things
Or are you your head in Mars?
And I no longer know
If what I do to you makes you feel good
I don't even know anymore
If what I do for you makes you feel good
I’ve thought about not answering when you call
I even thought that way you'd change
Does love still live in you?
Do you still want me?
Was it me who let us fall apart?
I'm not quite what you wanted
And there are days
That I don’t know how to reach you
Poems aren’t enough
They’re my own things
Or are you your head in Mars?
And I no longer know
If what I do for you still makes us feel good
And I don’t even know
If what I do for you makes you feel good
I know love no longer exists here
That you no longer see yourself in me
I know it was me who let us fall apart
