Lyrics: Oliver Viert
Music: Oliver Viert/Timo Bonner
What if the truth is a curse?
What if I’m making it worse?
But if I don’t face what I feel,
I’ll never know what is real
What if the truth is a curse?
Delay just deepens the question
If I don’t act today,
I’ll only freeze the lesson
I’ve been holding on to versions
Of myself that never fit
Small decisions turned to patterns,
And I kept living inside it
Every thought I tried to quiet
Still returns to be addressed
I can’t keep running from the answer
Just because it’s incomplete
I’ve measured meaning by avoidance,
Hoping distance makes it fade
But every moment I postpone
Still keeps me where I am
Where I ****ing am
What if the truth is a curse?
What if I’m making it worse?
But if I don’t face what I feel,
I’ll never know what is real
What if the truth is a curse?
Delay just deepens the question
If I don’t act today,
I’ll only freeze
I’ll only freeze the lesson
I’ve been pacing through the reasons
Why I never chose to change.
Every comfort has a limit,
And I’ve been stretching mine too thin
Way too thin
Way too thin
If truth demands a step,
I won’t retreat
I’m stepping out
Of everything I used to be
