Lyrics

I find delight in empty days

I take pleasure in unoccupied days

I take my counsel with wine

I seek advice from wine

My own devices have robbed me of reckless leisure

My personal choices have deprived me of carefree leisure

My words will be proven in time

My statements will be validated over time


The evening follows me like a blanket

The night surrounds me like a cover

I am less convinced of anything

I am less certain about everything

I don't feel wise, but I have learned to love

I don't feel knowledgeable, but I have learned to love


Culture isn't cheap

Culture comes at a cost

If you bite the hands that bleed

If you harm those who support you

You'll end up with blood-stained teeth

You will suffer consequences

You are a lung full of water

You are emotionally overwhelmed

And me, I am an appetite

While I am a person with strong desires

Under the stress of whether you and I

Amidst the pressure of our relationship


From harbouring a hardship

By enduring difficulties

Your love lines will be wrinkled

Your expressions of affection will show signs of aging

Better the devils you know than don't, I suppose

It's safer to deal with familiar problems than unknown ones


Don't practice what you preach

Don't act differently from what you advise

A crowd of eyes have never listened to me

A group of onlookers has never paid attention to me

I am by no means a visionary, but I can see

I am not a visionary, but I can perceive


That culture isn't cheap

Culture has a price

If you bite the hands that bleed

If you harm those who support you

You'll end up with blood-stained teeth

You will face repercussions

You are a lung full of water

You are emotionally overwhelmed

And me, I am an appetite

While I am a person with strong desires

Under the stress of whether you and I

Amidst the pressure of our relationship


I find delight

I take pleasure

In empty days

In unoccupied days

I take my counsel with wine

I seek advice from wine
