A Solas

Alone I pretend not to fear time
Alone I suffer, alone I feel
Alone I paint my armor in colors
So you don't get scared
So you see flowers and not cold metal
Sometimes, alone, I'm afraid, that you won't come back
Or that you'll come back too soon
And don't let me be alone the time I need
To know how to be like this, alone
I must learn not to wait for you
To be more me and less us
And I have no more truths to tell
My tongue got stuck trying to explain
That time has more beautiful things to sing
That if it leaves, don't wait for it or go looking for it
Let the book fly with its story
And you don't fly, stay
Don't keep it in your memory
And let it go, always
Today I met someone
I'm dying of curiosity
I found her in the mirror
And we started talking
She says she's been waiting for this reaction for a long time
That I've ignored her from afar
That I finally pay attention
I've always been your reflection
-She said without blinking-
I've noticed your contempt
Your rejection, and the rest
Now that you finally love yourself
-With my head, denial-
If you love yourself, don't lie
We both stayed silent
And I have no more truths to tell
My tongue got stuck trying to explain
That time has more beautiful things to sing
That if it leaves, don't wait for it or go looking for it
Let the book fly with its story
And you don't fly, stay
Don't keep it in your memory
And let it go
And I have no more truths to tell
My tongue got stuck trying to explain
That time has more beautiful things to sing
That if it leaves, don't wait for it or go looking for it
Let the book fly with its story
And you don't fly, stay
Don't keep it in your memory
And let it go always
And let it go always
