Progress

lyrics

Now I have to clean this dirt off my hands to feel secure
I see your face in the spilled water on the floor
I feel something in me change, when these memories are fading
In this basement I grew cold, listening to the songs you've hated

I'm not something special, neither something wrong
I just want to be myself without biting my tongue
But I know of that I needed you to move on to the day I write these words
And I needed you to find back to myself

I know it's been a while since I had to be so open
But the things I want to tell, were going pretty well
And if I'm mistaken, make sure that I cut out the boring parts

This has gone too far
And please give me back
The hours that I wastend in your bed
Sitting by your window, hoping you would hear me
Everyone had left us, but you didn't seem to care

But now these days are old and black and white
I know that I'm let down but I'm alive
Head for the stars and leave tonight

I head for the progress and the years fade away
My friends helped me through this
The right place to be
