One day when I was four years old
My dad said come here my boy
I see how you look around
You're playing like everything was fun
I see how you move around
Like every moment was calm and warm
He took my hand behind my back
Then he took it and broke my hand
[Chorus]
I'm sorry as well boy but that
That's how it feels
That's how it feels
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
And the sun dances around the leaves
On powerful oak and leafy birch
One day in May takes it all back
To departed days from before
Cause' now when I have my own boy
That I'll bring up to become a man
He gave his sandwich to a dog
Come here my boy give me your hand
[Chorus]
I'm sorry as well boy but that
That's how it feels
That's how it feels
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
We said succeed in lying
We said succeed in frightening
We said succeed in messing up
We said succeed in burning
What all the others have in common
Is that no-one succeeds in feeling it
[Chorus]
That's how it feels
That's how it feels
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
That's how it feels
That's how it feels
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
That's how it feels (That's at least how it feels to exist)
