Ether and second wind

[Verse 1] [Slow] [Atmospheric] From the outside, I watch with a sigh How it all was and how it went by How I gave you my soul and my grace And how I killed our song, leaving no trace In the night, when I woke by your side Like a fool, watching you with such pride Tracing scars with a smile on my face Oh, how perfect it was in that space [Chorus] [Powerful] [Emotional] Falling to atoms, to ashes and smoke This world is a stranger, a cruel kind of joke Between "I love you" and "goodbye" — just a void Where all of our life has been burnt and destroyed I’m not seeking answers from heavens above My heart has no summer, no light and no love Everything’s washed by the rain in the night My heart, please be quiet, don't scream in your fright [Verse 2] [Trip-Hop Beat] Like a broken doll, moving so slow Erased from inside, with no spark and no glow Time is plenty, but I’m in a rush Autopilot is on in this deafening hush Car sirens don't scare me at all anymore They help me to find what I’m looking for It was once a fairy tale, dreams in our head Now it’s only autumn. And I feel so dead [Verse 3] You are not here, and it’s all that I fear Spring cannot help when the hell is so near Only yesterday, we were so high in the sky How did I get such a dark card to play by? Wherever I look, there is nothing but gloom How to live without you? I’m facing my doom I am fading away in this world, thin and clear I can only exist in the ETHER, my dear [Verse 4] [Dark Pop] [Intense] There are no traffic lights, no debts to be paid No dry evidence and no lies to be made There I am the light that knows no control Where no heavy losses can torture my soul I will turn off the sound, press "cancel" and go Let the cold foam in veins start to freeze and to flow Step over the threshold where screams fade away In my very last moment, my final dark day [Verse 5] [Sudden Change] [Fast Tempo] Ether’s cancelled, HE called me just now Stopped me right at the edge, and I don't know how Said he’s ready to pardon the pain and the strife Said without me he can’t even imagine his life! He was shouting and asking: "How could you, my girl?" And I, FOOL, almost left this bright world He keeps scolding me now, but with love in his tone I just smile and I listen, I’m not all alone He asks: "Honey, why are you silent and still?" I’m just speechless and giggling, lost my own will [Chorus 2] [Upbeat] [Energetic] To hell with the ether and to hell with the grief I don't regret follies, I feel such relief My heart’s beating fast like a tap-dancing shoe Life’s rewinding the tape, and it’s all brand new The staircase I climb is my Olympus today A halo is glowing above me, I’d say A fool? I agree! But I’m only your own! The Earth is back home on its heavenly throne [Verse 6] Not a word can I say, I just stand there and wait I will fly to him now, I won't hesitate Leaping over the steps, maybe five at a time I might break my own neck, but I’m feeling sublime I don't care if I’m clumsy or acting too wild I’ve got second wind like a jubilant child I will run to him now and I’ll start a big scene Asking: "Why took you so long? Where have you been?" "Why you didn't call? Why you weren't so fast?" "I almost was gone, I was breathing my last!" [Verse 7] I burst into our yard, so cozy and dear In my head, our talk is already so clear I realize now… I was out of my mind To leave everything beautiful here behind I’ve arrived. He is standing right there by the door I belong to him now, and I’m shaking once more Like a lady, I walked to him, quiet and shy "FORGIVE ME." No other words came to reply [Verse 8] [Mellow] [Deep Bass] Standing silent, the city breathes into our face Fate has closed its gold ring in this very same place In my pocket the phone is a witness so still Of how I almost broke my own life and my will He is smoking and sighing with look of a blame But my heart’s like a motor, a powerful flame If he’s scolding — it means that I’m living again And to hell with the words that are empty and vain [Outro] [Fade Out] Forgive me... Just forgive... I won't do it again, I swear... The ether was too tight for me to bear... Shall we go home?
