Description
Sometimes it feels so empty inside that even an echo doesn't respond. Everything seems to shatter into sharp pieces - thoughts, doubts, other people's glances, which only make it harder. But it is from this crack that a voice bursts forth, not hiding, but shouting straight into the darkness: about fatigue, about pain, and about the fact that it is finally time to bring it out.
Each line sounds like an attempt to break through concrete - loud, fierce, but with a stubborn desire for light. The rhythm is not one of despair, but of strength: the desire to cleanse oneself of everything superfluous, to burn the emptiness to the ground and find at least a small but real island in its place.
And somewhere between the scream and the melody, a feeling is born: yes, there is a way out. It is not ready-made, not suggested, but your own, hard-won. Maybe that's where that very place begins - “where you belong.”
Lyrics and translation
Original
When this began
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find
That I'm not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
But all that they can see the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I've felt so long
(Erase all the pain 'til it's gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
And I've got nothing to say
I can't believe I didn't fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That it's not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
(So what am I?)
What do I have but negativity
'Cause I can't justify the way, everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I've felt so long
(Erase all the pain 'til it's gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I will never know myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else, until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything 'til I break away from me
I will break away, I'll find myself today
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I've felt so long
(Erase all the pain 'til it's gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
(I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm)
Somewhere I belong
(I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm)
Somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong
