Seeking Souls

"What you seek is seeking you." — Rumi

VERSE 1
I wanna go home,
But the sun always rests at night
I keep asking myself if I'm cool by myself
Or just running like there’s no more light

Trying to be brave, to feel the pain
Feel the sand around my grave.
Being alone, that’s what makes you safe,
Or so they said.

PRE-CHORUS
I'm a hypocrite, I know.
Hiding behind all these metaphors,
While I don't even believe in yours,
not even caring about my words.

CHORUS
I never had a type
I'm just looking for your soul
In someone else's eyes
Until I fall apart.
I don't mind the shadows
I don't mind the lies
As long as I'm seen through your hazel eyes.

VERSE 2
You found the silence in my southern eyes, between the red cotton and the ink of my lies
I found beauty in your northern accent, a map of places where I never went.
And now, I’m unafraid of what has been,
Of every ghost and shadow I have seen.

I'm not very good at English
But I can make a sound
If you're interested in knowing
How it feels to finally be found.

I hear you in my sleep
Even when I'm not in bed
I try to stop this feeling,
But it's so strong that I fake instead.

BRIDGE
I think I already know you,
even before we meet.
Will I fall in love again?
Will I fall in love again?
Or am I just seeking souls
Inside these empty holes?

FINAL CHORUS
And if it's all in my head
I should fucking call you mine instead
Mine instead
I never had a type
I'm just looking for your hazel eyes
Your hazel eyes
It's all in my head
