They said that I'd get over you
And life would go on
But I never did
And it never did
You were the only one who knew me
And now you have gone
I keep it all hid
Keep it all hid
Like a book that goes unread
In a library stack
In a bibliotek
No-one takes me out
And no-one takes me back
To my bibliotek
Bibliotek
They say it's normal
That nothing at all
Is lasting so long
Lasting so long
There was a silence in heaven
About the space of half an hour
I'll just have to be strong
Have to be strong
And no-one takes me out
And no-one takes me back
To my library stack
Reflections on damaged life
Minima Moralia
Bibliotek
Bibliotek
Bibliotek
Like a book on a shelf
That's never been read
I am wasted
Untasted
You were the only one who knew
All the things that I hid
They said I'd get over you
But I never did
