[English]

I missed you and I cried, but I said that I was alright

And I know it's been awhile since I needed a distraction

Because I want to do everything that you want me to

To tell you the truth

I need to stay alive, so sad that I could die

It's leading me on, every time we touch

Leading me on, every time it hurts

Feeling so lonely because it's not enough

Missing you only ever since we fell in love

...

And I watched you do a line that you spread out on the table

I don't need to see you wired, I just want to see you upside down

Because I want to do everything that you want me to

To tell you the truth

I listened to you cry all night through the telephone...

It's leading me on, every time we touch

Leading me on, every time it hurts

Feeling so lonely because it's not enough

Missing you only ever since we fell in love

...

Couldn't say you didn't want me then when we were

Lying in my bed that night

You were acting like a different person as if suddenly

You wanted to just be friends

I was hurt and so I took a shower so you couldn't hear

Me, knowing I had to cry

Sad to know that while my heart was breaking you were

Sleeping or just faking...

It's leading me on, every time we touch

Leading me on, every time it hurts

Feeling so lonely because it's not enough

Missing you only ever since we fell in love

...
