Battle
Sébastien Schuller Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

you're in a strange way hold on
oh let me help you hold on
when you get in trouble
life test you hold on
oh tell me if you suddenly get in trouble

you're under stress hold on
not by yourself hold on
let it float
life test you hold on
you come with self restrain too
it's a better choice

all this time you're waiting
to come closer you're wanting
with all your soul
but it starts to drive you insane
when the days are closing in
you lose control

you never felt so odd since you're out of time
your will will never stop you waste time
you cannot take your fate when it's coming along
I bet you if you stay you will just feel it's too long

if the sky fills with dark clouds i will always be with you
if the houses and building are trembling i will always be here
if you start to feel insecure i will always be with you
if the sky seems to fall on you i will always be here

through the bonfire the rain falls we will find our way




through the bonfire the rain falls we will find our way
and disappear
