Letra
I belong to the wind when it blows,
But it carries me away without keeping me.
I belong to the sun when it shines,
But it touches me softly without loving me.
I walk alone between two worlds,
Without roots, without shelter,
Unable to be who I should be,
Or even know who I am.
Chorus:
And tell me why I exist,
Why I breathe without believing,
I am here, without being here,
I am the shadow of my story.
And tell me how to keep holding on
When everything within me crumbles,
If to love is to lose yourself,
Then tell me… why me?
And in this silence that eats away at me,
I disappear without a cry,
Like a scream within a sigh,
Like a life that is forgotten.
I reach my hands into the void,
Towards an echo that never comes,
I whisper your name into the night,
But the world does not answer.
I cling to moments that have died,
To silences too heavy to bear,
Like a heart that beats too hard,
Like a love that is never returned.
Chorus:
And tell me why I exist,
Why I breathe without believing,
I am here, without being here,
I am the shadow of my story.
And tell me how to keep holding on
When everything within me crumbles,
If to love is to lose yourself,
Then tell me… why me?
And so I die without violence,
Just slowly, almost gently,
Like a flower that withers
Before it has even seen the light.
But it carries me away without keeping me.
I belong to the sun when it shines,
But it touches me softly without loving me.
I walk alone between two worlds,
Without roots, without shelter,
Unable to be who I should be,
Or even know who I am.
Chorus:
And tell me why I exist,
Why I breathe without believing,
I am here, without being here,
I am the shadow of my story.
And tell me how to keep holding on
When everything within me crumbles,
If to love is to lose yourself,
Then tell me… why me?
And in this silence that eats away at me,
I disappear without a cry,
Like a scream within a sigh,
Like a life that is forgotten.
I reach my hands into the void,
Towards an echo that never comes,
I whisper your name into the night,
But the world does not answer.
I cling to moments that have died,
To silences too heavy to bear,
Like a heart that beats too hard,
Like a love that is never returned.
Chorus:
And tell me why I exist,
Why I breathe without believing,
I am here, without being here,
I am the shadow of my story.
And tell me how to keep holding on
When everything within me crumbles,
If to love is to lose yourself,
Then tell me… why me?
And so I die without violence,
Just slowly, almost gently,
Like a flower that withers
Before it has even seen the light.
