And break through the walls and the whispers
_____
I get home early, I swear
_____
I love you bit by bit and through wear and tear
_____
Lying to myself alone, no pretense
_____
But if only like before
_____
I love you just as much but not as often
_____
If we need to dance in front of people
_____
Your hands move up but I go down
_____
If loving is also holding back
_____
Smother me with love before the worst
_____
The TV turns off and everything goes quiet
_____
And I pity you, I please you
_____
And count the cracks if we had to
Below, everything spreads out
Already the end of the ball
_____
A malaise weighing in the trunks
_____
Since we only leave in appearance
_____
That memories make the suffering
_____
If loving is also holding back
_____
Smother me with love before the worst
_____
If loving is also holding back
_____
Smother me with love before the worst
