edmund e lucy

I'm still in the closet, quiet
Breathing softly and I feel like laughing
You're in the room making stupid jokes
To deceive me and win at hide and seek
And another year goes by
And everything is just like before
Excluded by others, included by you
I apologize if it's late
But then, between siblings there are colder moments
And it's the fault of both
Luckily we hold on tight
In the ice cubes
We call traumas

It's too long to start over
Too long to understand
Too long to handle
Too little time to disappear
Too long without realizing
Too little time with a father
Too much crap to swallow
Too many people to forgive
Too much pain to love
Few words to say

So don't leave me alone
Because I'm still a little scared
Of not waking you up before going to school
And going down the stairs silently with a lump in my throat

Edmund and Lucy locked in the closet
We run away from the wolves
In the woods of the Mediterranean
They want to be like you and me
Simply human, simply real
But it's not easy to be honest
And grow so close
I've torn out all the roots
Left one and tied a double knot
It's you I call when I hate myself
And you love me in a different way
The kindness of a good giant
Now hug me and then take me away

If it's too long to start over
Too long to understand
Too long to handle
Too little time to disappear
Too long without realizing
Too little time with a father
Too much crap to swallow
Too many people to forgive
Few words to say

So don't leave me alone
Because I'm still a little scared
Of not waking you up before going to school
And going down the stairs silently with a lump in my throat
And don't leave me alone
I'm still a little scared
Of not waking you up before going to school
And going down the stairs silently with a lump in my throat

Let's play hide and seek
Close your eyes if you're scared
While you take care
Your arms a belt

And don't leave me alone
I'm still a little scared
Of not waking you up before going to school
And going down the stairs silently with a lump in my throat

And not waking you up before going to school
