Am I the sum of my habits Please tell me that’s not true There’s always some impulse In everything I do I’ll go for runs in the mornings Get my work done for noon And I’ll work on my humour So I can lighten up the mood But you always beat me to the punchline This time can I say the joke I just want you to think I’m a little funny Maybe you’d laugh if I choked If I keep seeing myself from the third-person, well Could you talk me out If I keep hating myself in a virtual hell Could you knock me out If I keep ruining my health, never leaving my shell Could you break me out If I don’t want any help and say I’m someone else Could you remind me Before I narrate my fairytale He’s falling asleep again He’s grinding his teeth again He’s counting up sheep again He forgot how to breathe again He forgot how to be a friend He forgot how to be again He just wants the year to end So he’s falling asleep again He’s afraid of the love he’ll spend He pretends not to need his friends He just wants real life to end So he’s falling asleep again

Do you like the cold I think I’m learning to be warmer I don’t shiver anymore So we just watch the air unfold I’d be standing in the corner The wind talking through the door Is it the weather Or is it me Maybe there’s somewhere We’re meant to be We’ll find a place in the arctic Somewhere there to call home Our own world to get lost in A million acres of snow And you’d hold me tight With the northern lights wrapped around our heads And our twinkling eyes as we go Somewhere there in the arctic Somewhere we’ve never known It has been so long Since I saw the icy sheets Gleam and glisten underneath the sun A crescent moon Peaks behind the arctic clouds As if to gently greet me and you Is it the weather Or is it me Maybe there’s somewhere We’re meant to be We’ll find a place in the arctic Somewhere there to call home Our own world to get lost in A million acres of snow And you’d hold me tight With the northern lights wrapped around our heads And our twinkling eyes as we go Somewhere there in the arctic Somewhere we’ve never known Un hiver sans le soleil Juste pour regarder le feu Peut-être on reviendra jamais Dis moi ce que tu veux Une saison ou une année Ou la neige pour toute la vie J’apprend à embrasser le vent Et les nuages qui me suivent Oui c’est drôle et c’est naïf Mais j'espère que tu me crois Nous pouvons être heureux Dans le nord, dans le froid Est-ce que tu me crois Est-ce que tu me crois

unimportant 03:27

There’s no trust in my cup I poured it out a while ago When you said it was fine to open up Bad news and tough luck There’s enough of it to go around Enough to shut me up So I swallowed my tongue Tried over and over And blew out my lungs Just to get by Waste time while we’re young That’s how you’d put it But you never believed in me, that's why You told me these dreams were so unimportant I ran tangled in sheets, my vision all distorted Been lying for weeks, well how am I not bored yet Is the truth on my pillow, or out of my reach So what’s unimportant So what’s unimportant, again Let’s get this all sorted What’s so unimportant, again Does it still bother you How I don't follow you Behind the words you make me swallow Is the hope that you would understand my heart How do you still depart from my honesty It’s fragile but I’m asking you so modestly You never gave me a chance to show you I'm beyond your prophecy You let me lay here and wake to my aimless dreams You told me these dreams were so unimportant I ran tangled in sheets, my vision all distorted Been lying for weeks, well how am I not bored yet Is the truth on my pillow, or out of my reach You told me those words were so unimportant I twisted and turned, right through the morning Was I supposed to learn something ‘bout warnings How I gotta get my mind right, that’s what’s important Is that what's important That's what's important
