Love me

The city grew cold, like espresso forgotten in the kitchen,
In this movie, I've long been out of interest.
In the mirror, a guy with a tired look and stubble,
Looking for reasons not to merge with this gray web.
My demons are smoking on the sidelines, nervously flicking ashes,
I built castles, but they blew away, and I didn't even notice.
Memory is like an old film tape, getting stuck on the dramas,
I hide my heart in a hood and in deep pockets.
I'm no hero from a novel, no prince on a white Porsche,
My path is winding, and with every year it seems to get more bitter.
But when you are near, all this noise dies down,
And the ice inside, accumulated over years, slowly melts.

Припев
Love me like this — with my cracks,
Where every scar under the skin is things we don't
Understand, but they are important. I am your anchor at the bottom.
Love me, even when I am burning in the fire.
Love me without makeup, without fake bravado,
Because we will build our paradise, even if it's hell around.
Just love me.


People change masks faster than slides in a movie,
I drink this life to the bottom, though it tastes bitter, like wine.
How many times did I fall? Lost count somewhere around a hundred,
But every time I got up, gasping for air in the alleyway.
And you know, I don't need ovations, nor pedestals,
If only you wouldn't get tired of looking into my eyes.
I can be unbearable, prickly like barbed wire,
But for you, I'll tear anyone apart, from the earth to the clouds.
You and I are two shards that folded into a stained glass window,
This world is an illusion, a cheap mirage.
But what is between us — beats like a pulse in the temples,
I will save the two of us, holding us in my tight grip.

Припев
Love me like this — with my cracks,
Where every scar under the skin is things we don't
Understand, but they are important. I am your anchor at the bottom.
Love me, even when I am burning in the fire.
Love me without makeup, without fake bravado,
Because we will build our paradise, even if it's hell around.
Just love me.


And let the hands of the clock mercilessly cut the years!
I will be right beside you, you hear? Everywhere and always!
Even when the whole world turns away, says: "He is empty,"
I will read your name by the line of your lips!
I am no saint, my halo rusted in the dust long ago,
But you and I still found this light in the darkness.

Припев
So love me like this — with my cracks,
Where every scar under the skin is things we don't
Understand, but they are important. I am your anchor at the bottom.
Love me, even when I am burning in the fire.
Love me without makeup, without fake bravado,
Because we will build our paradise, even if it's hell around.
Just love me.


Yeah... Just love.
The best you can.
And I'll answer with the same.
