Night falls slowly in my room I stay awake, don't know how to rest So many things locked in my chest They never learned how to leave my head The world keeps walking straight ahead I walk crooked, out of line I carry absence in my thoughts Like shadows that won't stay behind And when hope is calling my name My voice don't wanna reply There's a silence deep in my soul Teaching me how to cry Sadness is loving carefully And still getting lost It's waiting with your eyes closed For something that never comes Sadness is living in the dark Looking for a sign It's a tired heart pretending That everything's fine The hours pass without a sound Time learned how to wear a disguise Some promises turn into memories Before they even break inside I see laughter slipping from days Like it's running from its own song I keep collecting broken pieces Of what once felt so strong If life asks so much breathing in Why it takes the ground away? Why does pain arrive so early When we still believe and pray? Sadness is loving carefully And still getting lost It's waiting with your eyes closed For something that never comes Sadness is living in the dark Looking for a sign It's a tired heart pretending That everything's fine If joy ever comes back around Let it find me as I am With the scars that time has left And the little love in my hands It wasn't lack of hope inside It was feeling way too deep Those who dive into the ocean Always learn how hard it is to sink Sadness is this old love That refuses to say goodbye Even when the whole wide world Is tired of asking why Sadness is my only song When I don't know how to speak It's what's left inside my chest When my heart is too weak
