About the song[]
In press releases, Aurora said:
"This is a song about the invisible enemy. What brings you anger, what brings you worry and sadness. What makes you crawl into yourself instead of meeting the world fully. A song about searching for someone or something to blame, when you know perfectly well that the only solution lies within yourself."[3]
Lyrics[]
Who have I been?
Who have I been?
Who have I been fighting all this time?
All this time
Maybe I've spent too much time with myself
'Cause everything became enormous in my head
Maybe there was never a demon
Maybe it was just me dreaming
And now I can't escape this feeling
After all this time
I can't leave it to rest, leave it to rest
It's like nobody cares, nobody cares
'Cause I feel like I'm flooding, flooding over еverything
And everyone knows how this story goes
And I've been under pressure all my life
And I feel like I'm losing all my fights
I've been under pressure all my life
But who have I been fighting all this time?
I've stood here for so many years
Waiting for the morning sunbeams
To finally warm me
But it's happening so slowly (But it's happening so slowly, slowly)
It's impossible to notice (It's impossible to notice, notice)
How everything around me is changing
After all this time
I can't leave it to rest, leave it to rest
It's like nobody cares, nobody cares
'Cause I feel like I'm flooding, flooding over еverything
And everyone knows how this story goes
And I've been under pressure all my life
And I feel like I'm losing all my fights
I've been under pressure all my life
But who have I been fighting all this time?
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
(Who have I been fighting all this time?)
