"When you're far away, I want you to be close. (...) But what about when we are together? We fight, we argue about stupid things, we want to change each other, we want the other to see the world in the same way as we do. You expect things from me that make no sense, and I do the same to you. Sometimes we secretly say to ourselves: "but it would be nice if I were free and not committed". (...) And that's when I feel lost.

When you're far away, I want you to be close. (...) But what about when we are together? We fight, we argue about stupid things, we want to change each other, we want the other to see the world in the same way as we do. You expect things from me that make no sense, and I do the same to you. Sometimes we secretly say to ourselves: "but it would be nice if I were free and not committed". (...) And that's when I feel lost.
""Amikor távol vagy, szeretném, ha közel lennél. (...) De mi van akkor, amikor együtt vagyunk? Veszekszünk, hülyeségeken vitatkozunk, meg akarjuk változtatni egymást, azt akarjuk, hogy a másik is ugyanúgy lássa a világot, mint mi. Olyan dolgokat vársz el tőlem, amiknek semmi értelme, és én ugyanezt teszem veled. Néha titokban azt mondjuk magunkban: "de jó lenne, ha szabad lennék, és nem lennék elkötelezve". (...) És ilyenkor elveszettnek érzem magam."
