Lyrics:
Where is my angel
Draped over the end of the day?
Someone come and save me, please
Only the sighs of a tiring day
Everyone looks happy
Can you look at me? Cuz I am blue & grey
The meaning of the tears reflected in the mirror
The colors hidden in my smile, blue & grey
I don’t know where it went wrong
A blue question mark in my head since I was a child
Maybe that’s why I lived so fiercely
But once I look back, once I stand still here
That menacing shadow swallows me up
The question mark, still blue
Is it uneasiness, melancholy?
Perhaps we really are animals of regret
Or perhaps it’s that I was born out of loneliness
I still don’t know, that menacing blue
I hope I don’t get consumed by it, I will find the exit
I just wanna be happier
Melt me who is cold
My hand reached out innumerable times
A colourless echo
Oh this ground feels so heavier
I am singing by myself
I just wanna be happier
Is even this too much to ask for?
The beating of my quickening heart
That I felt when I walked the cold winter streets
Even now, I still feel it
Don’t say it’s okay
Because it’s not okay
Please don’t leave me alone, it hurts too much
The road that I always walk on, the light that always shines on me
But for some reason, today it’s an unfamiliar scene
Did I become too used to it or did it fall apart
But it’s heavy, this piece of metal
A grey rhinoceros coming towards me
I stand with unfocused eyes, all alone
This moment doesn’t seem like me
I’m just not scared
I don’t believe in the god that is certainty
Colorful words make me nervous
Wide gray areas put me at ease
Here there is the grey of a million faces
When it rains, it’s my world
I dance on top of this city
May the bright days have fog
May we be together always on wet days
And to all the dust here,
I raise a toast
I just wanna be happier
Feel the heat from my hands
I need you more because they are not warm
Oh this ground feels so heavier
I am singing by myself
Far in the future, if I smile
I’ll say, that’s how it used to be
As I secretly take back the words that are floating in the air
I fall asleep at dawn, good night
