When was the first time

The first time

We met

Since when do I wake up

I wake up

In sweat

Too many things left unsaid

I keep getting misled

So when was the first time

The first time

We met

Stress!

Is grabbing me with both hands

(Let go!)

Stress!

I’m only facing dead ends

(Let go!)

My blood’s pumping too fast

Through my temples

And chest

My hands trembling too hard

They can’t hold

This mess

A bag of chips late-night

Swallow them with no bite

So how did I get here

We got here

We met, we met

Stress!

Is grabbing me with both hands

(Let go!)

Stress!

I’m only facing dead ends

(Let go!)

(2x)

I’m longing for the times when I was calm

When I could still decide, but they are gone

I’m longing for the times before the storm

I’m longing for the times, when I was longing for the times before

Stress!

Is grabbing me with both hands

(Let go!)

Stress

I’m only facing dead ends

(Let go!)

(2x)

Counterpart melody:

When did I wake up

How did I get here

We got here, we met

We met the first time

When I woke up

In a cold sweat

We met
