TAIDADA

Before I could cut ties, I stayed quiet
Before I got hurt, I laughed
Before I nodded, I stomped my feet
Before I got swept away, I quit
Like a good luck charm
Just a tiny bit of common ground
I’m holding on tight to that little piece

The dinner I had today
And the gestures that cover my lunch break
I’m hanging on to the desire to know
I was searching within the idol
A feeling I’ve never had before
It’s hitting me hard

We’re human, right? We should be free
But acting all smart, it just doesn’t taste right
No worries, my heart’s racing
Rules are meant to signal the end, right?

Go all out, is that all you got?
Just being clumsy and kind won’t cut it
Aren’t you just putting on a show?
Get it together, what’s your pain?
I want to work through this emotional battle with you

I’m feeling drained all around, suddenly so tired
I only have a mindset just for you
Let’s just go for it
I want to believe, I want to lie in wait
Welcome back, I’ll pray and exorcise
Let’s have a chat about taking care of ourselves, Lambada
Feeling lazy, countdown

Breaking down is so sudden
Gradually, your responses are getting cold
Running towards the setting sun
It’s cold realizing what I’ve lost
Like a good luck charm
Just a tiny bit of common ground
Where did I forget that little piece?

An unstable structure, endless
If I get it, I treat it carelessly
Sometimes I try disappearing on purpose
I think playing hide and seek is important too
My protective energy
Just keeps getting stronger

We’re human, right? We should be free
But acting all smart, it just doesn’t taste right
No worries, my heart’s racing
Rules are meant to signal the end, right?

Go all out, is that all you got?
Just being clumsy and kind won’t cut it
Aren’t you just putting on a show?
Get it together, what’s your pain?
I want to work through this sensitivity with you

Don’t be afraid of the things you can’t unravel
Can you read it? Find it
Spouting nonsense
The closer I get, the more of an enemy you become
Even if we pass by, I’m a tough loser
Misunderstandings are just innocent answers
Not having bad intentions is the sneakiest thing
I want to be in a dramatic misunderstanding
Even if I run away, I’m bored, so let’s fight

Go all out, is that all you got?
Just being clumsy and kind won’t cut it
Aren’t you just putting on a show?
Get it together, what’s your pain?
When there’s no emotion, that’s when I question it

(I’m feeling drained all around, suddenly so tired)
Even though I’m not doing anything
Don’t just keep making excuses (Oh-oh)
(I want to believe, I want to lie in wait)
Welcome back, I’ll pray and
I want to sleep, exhausted
But it’s a situation I can’t ignore, let’s talk about it.
