The subway car is too full
And I don't know whether to wait for the next one
The doors close and you pass through
But I don't make it in time
And you leave me here alone like a fool, like a fool
Hands touch for a moment
But are separated by the glass

I have more than a few bottles to drain
Because I have more than a few mistakes to forget
Maybe I'm messed up
And I'm left alone apparently
I was hoping for an American movie ending
But a bittersweet ending would have been fine too
With the world collapsing and us two hand in hand
On a sky of soy sauce and dragon clouds

And I would tell you that you remain mine even though you belong to someone else
But it's just a lie
And the wind will carry away this distracted day
And the melancholy
And I would tell you that you remain mine even though you belong to someone else
But it's just a lie
And the wind will carry away this distracted day
And the melancholy

And everything has passed in a flash
People talk to me and I only hear white noise
Thoughts chase me, they hold sway
I quicken my pace to keep them away
I shaved my beard to seem like someone else
To seem changed, as you wanted
I confide in the bartender who pours another
But he's not listening like you used to
I drink clear liquor to become invisible
Something in your gaze has changed, something imperceptible
It's better to pretend nothing's wrong and remain impassive
And you're unreachable, it was predictable

I have more than a few bottles to drain
Because I have more than a few mistakes to forget
Maybe I'm messed up
And I'm left alone apparently
I was hoping for an American movie ending
But a bittersweet ending would have been fine too
With the world collapsing and us two hand in hand
On a sky of soy sauce and dragon clouds

And I would tell you that you remain mine even though you belong to someone else
But it's just a lie
And the wind will carry away this distracted day
And the melancholy
And I would tell you that you remain mine even though you belong to someone else
But it's just a lie
And the wind will carry away this distracted day
And the melancholy
