Too long

I waited for so long
Outside myself
You see I was pretenting
To be someone else
I was longing to see
Who i wanted to be
And I´ve been waiting on my own
I´ve been waiting for too long
Not strong enough to be with you
And I´ve been making up my world
I´ve been painting it with gold
Not strong enough to see you
I irrigate illusions
Then let them grow
How can I pacify myself?
And let go
And I run wild to see
Who I turned out to be
[...]
But it was too cold
In my world
Outside myself
You see I was pretenting
To be someone else
I was longing to see
Who i wanted to be
And I´ve been waiting on my own
I´ve been waiting for too long
Not strong enough to be with you
And I´ve been making up my world
I´ve been painting it with gold
Not strong enough to see you
I irrigate illusions
Then let them grow
How can I pacify myself?
And let go
And I run wild to see
Who I turned out to be
[...]
But it was too cold
In my world
