I was there when everyone was dancing
They wet their finger, they thought they were eternal
I was in the bathroom holding the door with my back
While I kissed their tongue
I was there in the offices of Universal
Swallowing sermons about my great potential
I was there hugging the toilet bowl
I was unable to let go of it and they couldn't look at me

I was there in the emergency room caressing the limit
I needed something infallible
I was on my knees asking your God for forgiveness
For not knowing how to say no

I
Still there, not knowing how to get out
I
Still there, not knowing how to get out
And I can't escape

I was there changing the names of my lovers
In the contact list
I was there leaving my used panties in the closet
Messing up a stranger's life
I was in the other room, listening to his breathing
Hoping he wouldn't come in
I was between the sheets waiting for the summer
Ceasing to be who I had dreamed of

I
Still there, not knowing how to get out
And I can't get myself out of there

I was there with the keys in my hand
Quickening my pace, pretending to talk to my brother
I was there letting it happen
Just to get it over with once and for all
I was there confessing for having touched myself
Believing that was the damn sin
I was there sticking my fingers down my throat
Wanting to vomit the sorrows, the life, the hate

I
Still there and not knowing how to get out
I
Still there, not knowing how to get out
And I can't, I don't know how to get myself out of there
