[Verse 1]
I've heard that the sun shines for you again
I've heard that you seem liberated and you carry a smile again
I've heard that I'm over and done for you
And that this was the best step of your life
I've seen that your heart now beats for someone else
Pretty fast for you said you needed time
In the photos that I find, you two beam with grin
You look so disgustingly happy
[Chorus]
And I, I cannot fall asleep without taking something
And you have set both feet into a new life a while ago
Looking ahead as if it were the easiest thing in the world
(The easiest thing in the world)
[Verse 2]
From all that I've heard, you live in a picture book now
You're looking for a house by the lake and children's names, wasn't that our plan?
And I'm hanging here half-mast, can't get my head out the sand
I'm kilometers away from keeping my distance
[Chorus]
And I, I cannot even fall asleep without taking something
And you have set both feet into a new life a while ago
Looking ahead as if it were the easiest thing in the world
[Bridge]
But what breaks me the most
Is seeing how happy you are now
And the bitter realization
That I'm right at the start and that there is nothing
And that every day and every year
Was in vain, was useless, was so pointless
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'll someday fall asleep again without taking something
And maybe somewhere out there, there's a new life for me
But imagining that right now is the hardest thing in the world
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
And I, I cannot fall asleep, oh, without taking something
And you have set both feet into a new life a while ago
Looking ahead as if it were the easiest thing in the world
(The easiest thing in the world)
