Seventeen Seconds

Time slips away, and the [?] is the day
And everything is quiet now
Feeling is gone, and the picture disappears
And everything is cold now
The dream always ends, the wish never comes true
And the girl, I wish she’d start to sing

Seventeen seconds, a measure of nothing
Seventeen seconds

See you
Enter years go
And the memories still hold me

You used to press
You used to stop
And then she falls

Just think it
It used to taste
It used to be so good
And then he kills her with just one push

She went two ways
To stay in her arms forever
Wish wish wish wish wish
To live in a story
