poesie – tu dir nicht gut lyrics (English Translation)

---

[Verse 1]
I have a habit of running
The moment I start to feel something.
I start picking you apart, looking for the cracks,
Just to find a reason to leave.
And I’m running now.

[Verse 2]
The more your messages fill my screen,
The quieter I become.
The more you confess you’re falling for me,
The harder it is to form the words.
The tighter you hold on,
The more I need to break free.
I need you to let me go.

[Bridge]
And then it hits me—this sudden, brutal certainty.
I convince myself we’re all wrong.
That we don’t fit.
That “forever” was never in the cards for us.
I become sure you’d only bring me sorrow.
Sure you’re not the one.
Sure I need to run.

[Outro]
No matter where, just away from you.
I know I should run.
Even though my heart tells a different story.
Even though I actually like you.
