Can I speak to you privately for a moment?
I just want to explain
Explain the circumstances
I find myself in
What and who I really am
I'm a prisoner
To live for eternity
I was thinking, "What is this place?"
I thought it would be perfect
I thought
"I want it to be perfect"
Please
Let it be perfect
Am I living in another world?
Another world I created
For what?
If it's beauty
Do you see beauty?
If there's beauty
Say it's enough
I think I'm gonna die in this house
I think I'm gonna die in this house …
In every room, I hear silence.
