Something Beautiful is Dying

Last breath.

I want to say this very softly
I apologize to you
For all the pain I didn't see
When you really needed me
I was trying my best
But I couldn't
I couldn't fight your devils

When I think it's the same moon
Which shines for you and for me
You now walk on the streets
Of some foreign city
You don't know where you go
You're a prisoner of yourself
Your life is a long night

How many people have you betrayed?
How many lies have you told me?
How many others behind my back
Even your eyes don't tell the truth
Now you go on your lonely life
You don't believe there is an ending
But something beautiful is dying
