Lyrics
Serious
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've given everything
With nothing in return
I'm filled with images
That play on every word
No-one to tell me
There's a cloud before my eyes
Not only broken,
I don't know the reason why
It's so serious
This endless sea of tears
The feeling that I'll drown
I'd try to catch them
But they're sure to touch the ground
My world of emptiness
A child without a toy
Forgiving anything
Restore me to my joy
It's so serious
