In jou gesig is 'n sterrestelsel
In your face there's a solar system
Ek is 'n kind wat na die sterre kyk
I am a child who looks at the stars
As jy jou hande deur my hare vryf
When you run hands through my hair
In die donker voel ek weerloos, voel ek weer klein
In the dark I feel vulnerable, I feel small again
As die storm weer begin sanik
When the storm starts to moan again
Die berg brand en die boom om waai
Burns the mountain and blows the tree over
En as die vlamme aan my gordyne lek
And when the flames lick my curtains
Dan skryf ek vir ons 'n nuwe plek
Then I'll write us a new place
Want as die weer weer kom, sal dit kom om te bly
Because when the weather comes again, it's here to stay
Ek ken die skaamte en die kwesbaarheid
I know the shame and the vulnerability
Ek onthou ons het hardop gebid
And I remember we prayed out loud
En ek onthou ons het in ons skoolklere gevry
And I remember we kissed in our school uniforms
So ek skryf maar vir my 'n wegkruipplek
So I'll just write us a shelter
Want ek weet die weer sal weer kom om te bly
Because I know the weather will come to stay
Maar komma, komma, komma, komma weer
But come again, come again, come again, come again
Hierdie keer is ek gereed
This time I'm ready
Ek sal 'n byl in my hand hê
I'll have an axe in my hand
Partykeer moet jy iets oopbreek
Sometimes you have to break something open
Ek ken van in die hoek geskop word en gil
I know about being kicked into the corner and yelling
Jou teen die ruit stamp en ons albei kraak
Pushing you against a windowpane and we both creak
Ek skryf maar vir my 'n wegkruipplek
I'll just write myself a shelter
Daars 'n berg hout piele wat brand in pleks van my verstand
There's a pile of wood burning in place of my mind
Maar komma, komma, komma, komma weer
But come again, come again, come again, come again
Hierdie keer is ek gereed
This time I'm ready
In jou gesig is 'n sterrestelsel
In your face there's a solar system
Ek is 'n kind wat na die sterre kyk
I am a child who looks at the stars
As jy jou hande deur my hare vryf
When you run hands through my hair
In die donker voel ek weerloos, voel ek weer klein
In the dark I feel vulnerable, I feel small again
