This morning I got out of bed
With a void inside my head
I've never felt before
Something simply wasn't there
And I was terribly scared
I'm just no good no more
You cross my mind from time to time
When I try to find a rhyme
You get a decent use
I keep your memory on my shelf
And this is how I give myself
My fair share of abuse
A crazy rumour the I heard
Said you turned into a bird
Inside a golden cage
And in the lobby of a strange hotel
Where you were kept under a spell
The guests would tell your age
And I'm just a helpless little girl
Who got trapped inside your world
I still remember what it felt like
To share a cigarette with you that night
Though it meant nothing at all
And as you spread your wings and try to fly
Suddenly you found out your eyes won't cry
I don't know what i've been doing here all this time
I don't know what i've been doing here all this time
Sit down and stand up
Take my hand and walk with me
Eyes straight and head up
And don't you say a word to me
I was saving all my sins
To confess to you
I was lost inside a dream
That could not come true
I was lost in east Berlin
When I contacted you
You came to me in my sleep
And then the sky turned red and I went home
‘Cause all that I wanted was to be alone
