[English]

And I'm leaving acid behind

And I'm stepping into a kind of waltz

And I'm leaving acid behind

And I'm stepping into a kind of waltz

And I'm dancing with my virginity

I wake up early, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up early, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up, and the sun is no longer there

It’s no longer there

I wake up early, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up early, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up, and the sun is no longer there

It’s no longer there

I wake up early, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up early, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up early, and the sun is no longer there

I wake up, and the sun is no longer there
