Elpìs
Keep putting on this foolish show
I've done my best to play.
Many times I walked forward
and ignored all the details.
Lend me a little smile to
find myself today.
Show me my universe
falling into your embrace.
I'm used to walk a rainy way
so close and far away.
I often climbed and fell
and sometimes you're watching me.
Lend me a little smile cause
I can't change this place.
Emptiness tastes better than
those dreams which fade away.
Lend me a little smile to
find my way again.
Show me what life is like
under these autumn leaves.
For all my crimes I've been betrayed
so please don't take my heart in vain.
Feel the flow of falling tears
but don't give up to hate.
You’re everything I’ve always sought
and couldn’t make up for.
You found me at the bottom
underneath the pain you freed.
I can feel how many times
I tried, yet I'll succeed.
Lend me a little time to
heal the scars you earned.
Then show me what life is like
on bended knee.
For all my crimes I've been betrayed
so please don't take my heart in vain.
For all this time you’ve lain down there
but please I’m not the one to blame.
Then flee this prison now
you faint warm glow.
You'll decide the last words
which will take me away.
