Sabrina Radhia Behrens
I don’t want to sing no more
I don’t want to dance
I don’t want to move on
I don’t want no second chance
I don’t want to see a tomorrow
I don’t want anyone to take away my sorrow
I don’t want to hope
I don’t want to cope
I don’t want to try no more
I don’t want to reach for the sky no more
I just want to sit and decay
Like you did
I want to watch shit everyday
So I can make it through the day
So the One who remembers you remains
I don’t want to sing no more
I don’t want to dance
I don’t want to joke nor jump nor laugh
I don’t want to be reasonable nor brav [1]
I dont want to sit on my pretty balcony
Watch the birds sing their beautiful melody
I don’t want to enjoy the sun on my skin
I don’t want to go for a swim
I just want to give in
I don’t want to learn no more
I am done
I don’t want to grow
Since you stopped doing so
I want to stare at the wall and feel sore
I want to cry and cry even more
I want to work too much until it pains
I want to stay alone and make everyone go away
I want to mourn your loss every day
Because that makes you somehow stay
With me
And lets you be reality
I want to freeze the moment before your hearts stopped their beat
I don’t want to talk to anyone
I don’t want to eat
I don’t want to dream no more
I don’t want to pray
I don’t want to listen nor see
Any joy or music or beauty
I don’t want to forget or move on
I don’t want to regain courage and be strong
I don’t want to sing no more
I don’t want to dance
I don’t want to see no bright future and I don’t care for any possible maybes
All I want to do is to cry forever for my babies
Because if I don’t…
nobody will!
Why should I be healthy and young and sing and dance around when they were ill
I just want to be with them and be like them: forever still
