Don’t ask me; I know as much as you do.
I rush the day and I don’t dream about anything.
I already know myself, I know the word "fear" so well.
I know that I want to let myself get fooled.
A searing pain drills through my every thought.
I will be sane… Oh, sure, but not today.
A shrunk world, not bigger than this fist,
Has sat on my chest and I’m out of breath.
I lock my fear up with an invisible key
And also my face is already invisible.
When I walk into the crowd, a trap bares its fangs
And no cry flies from mouth to mouth.
A deadly wall effectively divides us.
I have my brain, you also have your sense.
Don’t ask me; I know as much as you do.
I rush the day and I don’t dream about anything.
Let’s stay this way, with me over here and you over there
As long as this silent cinema lasts.
Don’t ask us to play for you to dance.
It’s time, it’s time to brush your teeth and go to sleep.
