lyrics

I had a nightmare
That true love is neither true nor is love
That it’s a notion that we all just made up
A shiny, glorious, beautiful fake
I had a nightmare
That there’s nothing that lasts under the sun
That one and one always makes the same bloody one
That you and me are not the two parts of something whole

But just two separate selves
Simply holding hands
With overlapping worlds
And no need for words
Just like any of the rest
Seven billion lonely selves

If this is true
Then I’m not sure I want to accept it, I won’t
Be it illusion, I’ll cling to it until you prove me wrong
For it brings me joy, brings me light, the desire to live
All is fine: I’m by your side, I smile at you, happy as before
I do believe it was just a nightmare and nothing more
If you ever think I’m wrong, I won’t be holding you, I’ll let you go

If we’re two separate selves
Simply holding hands
With overlapping worlds
And no need for words
Just like any of the rest
Seven billion lonely selves

We’re not two separate selves
Simply holding hands
With overlapping worlds
And no need for words
I don’t care about the rest
You and me are not just two separate selves
