[intro] [verse] There were days, there were nights, when I treated myself unkind, Dancing into night’s embrace, crucifying myself on domes. Sprinkling ashes on my soul, I returned to fleeting joys, Threw my soul into the furnace, into hell, for gods to rend apart. Those were days, those were nights, when I focused all my might, To grasp freedom, rebellion, pride, and knowledge—tasting struggle’s bitter turns. I branded myself with curses, rolled Satan’s dice in vain, Touched success, then crushed by fate’s henchmen. Drank and dreamed, eyes dulled to light, No reflection in the mirrors, yet I walked, still held belief— Forgiveness lives in human hearts. [chorus] Just be, I’ll stay beside you—your love, my sole reward. Wake with me, my gaze adoring, I seek no flaw in you. Just be, I’ll stay beside you!
