lyrics

IT'S GONNA TAKE SOME TIME

Now do you need a reason to be selfish and insane
When what they wanna make you is juvenile and vain
It never was a problem until my waking day
I feel ashamed and broken
And that's why I've been away

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It didn't make a lot of sense
But you have to see I used to live and act in false pretense
And it's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time
Before I'm ready to decide if I should be in my bed or on my feet
But I keep trying
'Cos if I open up the door
It's been so long that I'm not sure what will be flying

You feel so very central
And you think you have control
You follow the instructions
That show you how to
Try to be, try to see,
Try to feed, try to need,
Try to cry, try to lie,
Try to try to try to try

When you're lost among the disasters in the wreckage of your heart
Your face becomes a masterpiece of expressionistic art
And it's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time
Before I'm ready to decide if I should be in my bed or on my feet
But I keep trying
'Cos if I open up the door
It's been so long that I'm not sure what will be flying

I'm sorry that I hurt you
I don't have much in my defense
But I thought I was directing and only watching through a lens
And it's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time
Before I'm ready to decide
It's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time here
It's gonna take some time
Before I'm ready to decide
It's gonna take some time
Before I'm ready to decide
It's gonna take some time
You know, it's gonna take some time

about

Kemopetrol Helsinki, Finland

Kemopetrol is a band from Helsinki, Finland. We've been around forever and we're excellent. What you have here is a dive into the vault of our DEMOS. So keep in mind not all the performances or mixes are gold - there's clipping, mispronounced words, etc. The songs themselves are good, I'm curating this shit myself. We're putting everything out here, little by little. Love, Kalle (the songwriter) ... more
