Baby - Lili Haydn

Live from day to the next day

Try to satisfy the cravings before they

Consume you

Colours are brighter

The world can excite you

When you’re under its spell

You can tell

All too well

That without it life would be hell

And time is passing you by

It marks no moment of your life

When you submit yourself to be numb

The fear disappears

And everything seems clear

When the emptiness is upon you

It fills you up like a balloon

And you float

High up over the real world

And think of when

You were a little girl again

Where would you go, baby?

What could you do?

Didn’t you hear, baby?

Nothing is sure but uncertainty

You can feel the hunger inside you

But the longing will no longer guide you onwards

Sinking into the floorboards

Where the rats eat at your will

And do it until

Your belly aches

And your soul will not be still

Wrench yourself from your demons

For far too long you’ve believed them

When they told you you were weak

Take a step in the tunnel

With the light 'round the bend

In the end

You can start to make amends

Who knows where you’ll go, baby

So much you could do!

Haven’t you heard, baby?

All will be well

If you want it to
