Knock, knock in vain I just want to pretend That I can't hear you Knock, knock in vain At some point you'll have to go away With my eyes closed To fake that I'm asleep Is way too easy I'll be more safe If I don't see what's behind the door This self-induced sleep paralysis Keeps me locked up in here As when back in the day I was home sick It feels kinda warm If I ever decide to kill myself please take me somewhere peaceful I'd like to have some rest Sit with me on the peak of a mountain And sing me a lullaby A lullaby Who would have thought? Just lying on the bed Can be exhausting But there's no one left Here to spur me on to get a life They didn't need me when I was there I guess they won't start now Perhaps it's better for us that I've vanished Best of luck to you If I ever decide to kill myself please take me somewhere peaceful I'd like to have some rest Sit with me on the peak of a mountain And sing me a lullaby A lullaby How did I become like this? Avoiding all the calls? Hoping not to meet anyone On the elevator? Revolving thoughts emerge From the swamp of entertainment where I tried to drown them Locking windows, smoothing the edges It didn't help, it didn't help, it didn't help To keep you from knocking You would like me to take a step You'd like me to fly away So get out of my head and break down the door I don't wanna cross, I don't wanna cross Yes, I know out there I could feel the sun on my skin And run through the fields Steal some fruit and get caught, paint, blow some bubbles And swim in the sea Be the smile and the tears of the people that I meet In short truly live But you know I have already chosen I gave up to fear I'll stand still Knock, knock in vain
