lyrics

I still had the key
But I knocked anonymously
For years, I ran away 
From our abysses

I see through the window
I remember chaos
How did we end this way?
Despite the pieces we lost 
The torn photos of us
I think of you always

I just want to talk 
But I stay still       
Like a scared bird
Like a fragile kid     

I face my remorses, 
Sorrows and wrongs
Sadness invades me
I stood guard so long
It weakened my heart 
It broke my body

Oh, ask me 
If I want to stay
Ask me
I promise that I changed 
I know you see
The tears in my eyes
And I'll let you take care of me

New lines on your face
Like a measure of time
Traces of shivers and joy
Try to cover the pain

Wisdom in your bones 
It guided you down the road
You kept changing
Me in a watchtower
Waiting for hours 
I was so lonely

Oh, ask me 
If I want to stay
Ask me
I promise that I changed
I know you see
The tears in my eyes 
And I'll let you take care of me

Oh, look at me
I’m so tired now   
Forgive me
I want no more wars
I know you see  
That I dropped the gun 
And I'll let you take care of me
I'll let you take care of me
And I'll let you take care of me
