Masterpiece Songtext

von Simphiwe Dana

You were the centerfold
In my existence
I forgot myself
In you my darling
I wanted to be better for you
In any way possible
I could never be the same
Be the same
You know my heart
Is yours to have
You were the masterpiece
I am not what you need
So I sing this song for you
You are the centrifuge
For my emotions
I lost myself
So deeply in you baby baby
I forgot how to live for me
I forgot how to live for me
For my emotions
I've died many times
For a glimpse of sanity
Caught up in the memory
Memory
Of no love
No memory of no love
Memory of something bad
Happening to us
Caught up in the memory
I don't wanna hurt you anymore
And the centre wouldn't hold
I forgot how to live for me
I forgot how to live for me
Confronted with ghosts of our past
Centre couldn't hold
I am not what you need
Don't wanna hurt you
I hurt you more if I stay
And I can't stand hurting
Hurting you
I have to go
This is goodbye
Bye bye baby
Don't wanna hurt you anymore
