Nowadays

(álbum: Nowadays - 2017)

I loved how I slept
When I was younger and content
With all the simple things
I had so much more then
I had peace, I had you to tell me
That it would all turn out just fine

So now I ask you
Did we all turn out just fine?

Was it in me not to see you
Not to close my eyes and turn?
Not to hear your voice
When you're screaming out my name
How could I miss it now?
Screaming out my name

I loved how we spoke
Without eyes closed and our hands
Raised to the ceiling high
And our faith like fire burning inside
Now we're empty and we don't know why (why)

That's why I ask you
Did we all turn out just fine?

I want to love something more than I love myself
I want to kill this need to be somebody else
I want to see my friends doing okay
Not feeling sad and strange
But nowadays, why is it so hard?

Cut my chest wide open
To see that I'm still longing
I can't find what is missing
My peace is gone and it won't come back
Maybe that's why I'm always looking to the past

I want to love something more than I love myself
I want to kill this need to be somebody else
I want to see my friends doing okay
Not feeling sad and strange
But nowadays, why is it so hard?
(To see you, to feel you here)
Nowadays, why is it so hard?
