Slide

There's this black knot inside of me

It can't be cried away

It will stay forever part of me

I accepted it one day

It can't be beaten out

I'm not it's master, not it's friend

Sometimes I think that it has gone

Later when I'm on my own - I don't

Don't you try to ease my pain

I need to brood, I need to cry

Let me rest, let me be

Let me suffer passionately

I'm on a psychologic slide

I'm on a melancholic ride

Walking on a flimsy rope

I need „nothing" to fall

With these forces I can't cope

I'm interior and small

At their first opportunity they attack me from the back

Again I turn off the phone

Feel a sudden sense of calm

Don't you try to ease my pain

I need to brood, I need to cry

Let me rest, let me be

Let me suffer passionately

I'm on a psychologic slide

I'm on a melancholic ride

Leave me now, and I will rise

When the darkness turns to light

I'll tackle my day, climb the mountain

Stay awhile, enjoy the sight

Until I slide again
