Uitgedoofd

I gave all I could
The best of myself
Even if that wasn't enough
Maybe it was too much

It was over before it started
And even though I'm dazed
I got what I asked for
Nothing proves otherwise

But friendship and love have disappeared
The world around me has burned out
The illusions turned out not to be what they once seemed
Even though I wished so badly...

I laughed and cried
Lived through beautiful days
They're still etched
In my memory

Every word I meant
What’s left are the questions
That I inherited from the past
As the very last thing

But friendship and love have disappeared
The world around me has burned out
The illusions turned out not to be what they once seemed
Even though I wished so badly...
I wished so badly to believe in them

What am I waiting for, why am I still here
Endless nights with way too much beer
Hollow empty words from the bartender and his girl
Who patiently listen to me when I start talking about you

But friendship and love have disappeared
The world around me has burned out
The illusions turned out not to be what they once seemed
Even though I wished so badly...
I wished so badly to believe in them

I believe in you
I believe in you
I believe in you
I believe in you
I believe in you
I’m burned out
