Irene Manca - 30 Lyrics

The clock is ticking
I am quivering
What for?
I am not that sure
I'm standing still
No time to kill
Shake this paralysis off!
How could I watch it fly by from afar
And still cut through my skin?
How could I let it slip away
Not even trying to grab it?

I'm standing still
With my eyes filled with my self-pity
My legs heavy with the weight of what I've missed out

I've got the feeling
That I should be somewhere
Anywhere but here

I've gotta climb out from this hole
Before the walls start closing in
Already feel the oxygen run out
I'm gasping for air
Meanwhile outside
Life's running wild
So much my eyes are missing
Everyone's leaving me behind
While I'm still trying to get out

The train's about to close its doors
And I am nowhere near the binary
How can I break free from my own mind?

Great expectations and procrastination
The eternal damnation of wanting perfection
Lost too much time rewinding in search for my mistakes and for indications and now
I'm running out of time and energy to spend on here and now
Where the indications I'm looking for are

I've got the feeling
That I should be somewhere
Got no clue where
These walls around me
Are the ideas that I built
Of who I should be

Though is it failing
To be where I've worked
So much on myself to be?

For every thing missed
There's something I have achieved
There are no deadlines
Only time to shape myself
There is nothing
I have to be
Just 'cause I'm 30
