A minute of silence is what I'm asking for
A minute of your time wouldn't hurt
So you find out today
That my soul is no longer dying
You were completely wrong
Don't even try to come back
I'd rather live a thousand years without you
Than an eternity like this
You were the love of my life
And speaking frankly, I won't lie to you
And I don't care what I might feel
This is a storm and it will continue
It's like sinking in the sea
It would be a bit absurd, a fatal end
Why keep causing harm?
Living like this by your side is not normal
I seek peace and you are a tempest
I'd rather give up and end it
I don't want to be your rival anymore
Verse 2
Many years have passed and I've been resisting
Until I erased the taste of happiness
You turned me into your enemy
Being the guilty one
And I got lost in your maze
From which I want to escape today
I'd rather live a thousand years without you
Than an eternity like this
You were the love of my life
Speaking frankly, I won't lie to you
And I don't care what I might feel
This is a storm and it will continue
It's like sinking in the sea
It would be a bit absurd, a fatal end
Why keep causing harm?
Living like this by your side is not normal
I seek peace and you are a tempest
I'd rather give up and end it
I don't want to be your rival anymore
I don't want to be your rival anymore
I don't want to be your rival anymore
This is a storm and it will continue
It's like sinking in the sea
It would be a bit absurd, a fatal end
Why keep causing harm?
Living like this by your side is not normal
I seek peace and you are a tempest
I'd rather give up and end it
I don't want to be your rival anymore
I don't want to be your rival anymore
I don't want to be your rival anymore
