30 Seconds

30 SECONDS  (meja-mats valentin)

 

Took a little less than 30 seconds

To realize I’ve been here before

I saw the sign, I learned my lesson well

Wrapped up in a blanket of bad excuses

I know you try but mess it up again

Another lie with good intentions

Tells me to let go

 

Chorus

I’m releasing this patter

Shaking of what I don’t really need

Keep the good things that matter

Throw the old lucky charm to the sea

For now

 

Trying to make sense of the contradiction

That what I give is never what I get

A bittersweet recognition

If you won’t change I can’t make you

I read the book, it’s a waste of time

I’m done singing lullabies

so I walk away
