Why do I stare so aimlessly
Into the wall or to the sky?
Why doesn't happiness
Bring me any joy?
Did something in me die?

And when a good girl's courting me
Her compliments I must deny.
My stomach's loaded with
Something like a void.
Did something in me die?

There's no more thrill inside a heart that's been deflated
There's no more charm in anything that it feels
As if the entity of Eros has evaded
And what is left is a gap that never heals.

I close my eyes and count to three
But still the pain intensifies.
And when the sun shines I
Simply get annoyed.
Did something in me die?
Did something in me die?
