Just The Past

Tell me how do I get to know you?
You untie me as if i were a shoelace
You let out all I could hold between my buttons
But from you I get nothing

Even if I gave you a mountain on a bad day
You don鈥檛 think you鈥檙e worth the top of
And how can I change that
When it鈥檚 in your fundament
You can鈥檛 take a compliment

Take a rest with me
After a long day
Foot is on the table
Don鈥檛 take them down, down, down
Don鈥檛 take them down

Is it your parents?
Or just the past?
Is it your parents?
Or just the past?

If you should reach what you aim for
Don鈥檛 give yourself the blame for what鈥檚 obviously not your fault
And don鈥檛 laugh this away
You won鈥檛 get to hear what I really have to say
What I see is not what you think I see
And what I think is not what you think I think
I know me but you don鈥檛 know me
As I don鈥檛 know you but..

Take a rest with me
After a long day
Foot is on the table
Don鈥檛 take them down, down, down
Don鈥檛 take them down

Is it your parents?
Or just the past?
Is it your parents?
Or just the past?
