Laureli Amadeus - All I Want

When they’re nearby
I’m crushed by so many secrets
I must be better off like this
I must be better off like this
Alone here, but how could I ask
If you wanna be alone here too
That’d just be too damn cruel
The disillusions never end
I don’t wanna be bitter, wanna be bitter
When I reach the gallows again
And this lump in my throat just won’t retire
And a cork has stuck into my eyes
I want to scream nothing matters at all
Curl up my limbs until night falls
Look away, ‘fore it catches me off guard
Oh, look away, in the churchyard there’s so many faces
Looking through me, wish I had the heart to run ahead
But I can’t go on any longer
They’ve spoken again
All I want, all I want, all I want, all I want
All I want, all I want, all I want, all I want
All I want, all I want, all I want, all I want
Can it even be said?
I’m better off, I’m better off, I’m better off without you
(They all sing)
You’re better off, you’re better off, you’re better off without us
(We must be)
I’m better off, I’m better off, I’m better off without you
Am I really so opaque? It’s a different kind of rain
When they’re nearby
(Alone here, but how could I ask?)
I’m crushed by so many secrets
(If you wanna be alone here too)
I must be better off like this
I must be better off like this
(Better off like this)
Look away, ‘fore it catches me off guard
Oh, look away, in the churchyard there’s so many faces
Looking through me, wish I had the heart to run ahead
But I can’t go on any longer
(Curl up my limbs until night falls)
They’ve spoken again
All I want, all I want, all I want, all I want
All I want, all I want, all I want, all I want
All I want, all I want, all I want, all I want
Can it even be said?
Can it even be said?
