Late at night I was dying
But you rescued me with that call you made
All I needed was a place to stay
A glass of wine, and get rid of this pain
We talked for hours and I guess we cried
A huge catharsis wrapped into smoke
Where all the fake images turned into dust
Oh how well you got to know me
The darkest sides I never showed
And you still stood there so long
Oh how well you touched me
And made me believe that there’s a God
I quit from my sadness from the moment we got through
I hired this madness; no one thought I’d be able to
Why did you make me believe? Believe in destiny
Even though I was not the better man
And you still stayed right next to me
You were not ok; I knew it and I kept quiet
‘Cause I just loved the way you lie
Those parts of you that seemed to collide into mine
You were the sweetest, and you made me love cats
Oh how well I got to know you
The words that you told me no more
But with that look it was enough
Oh how well you loved me
And let my shame to be over
I quit from my sadness from the moment we got through
I hired this madness; no one thought I’d be able to
Why did you make me believe? Believe in destiny
Even though I was not the better man
And you still stayed right next to me
I used to think I knew it all, but I was wrong
‘Cause the greatest knowledge I claimed to own
Was hidden in your chest for so long
You got the power to win me over
And made me feel drunk even when I was sober
I quit from my sadness from the moment we got through
I hired this madness; no one thought I’d be able to
Why did you make me believe? Believe in destiny
Even though I was not the better man
And you still stayed right next to me
