lyrics

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
