Dawid Podsiadło: Nieznajomy

Hello stranger, I don't even know your name.
I look at you and I wonder: Is this me in a couple of years?

The grayness enters my dreams from outside,
And you're still quiet, not talking to me.
In wilderness lives death,
Or is it just a part of my dream?
Tell me.

Walls collapse, windows crack all at once.
I'm falling down through all my past mistakes,
I see faces full of disappointment,
In their eyes pain and anger of forgotten events.

I lied more than I would ever like to admit.
In my veins flowed blood colder than steel,
That's why I'm all alone today.
Stranger, can you see what I see?

How is it possible that anyone ever trusted me?
Sincere on the surface but never like today.
The same place, the same tired fear.
Among the crowd of people I bounce off the bottom.
