Overwhelmed by my own emotions
Memories, bulky waste of the past
All those! Regrets! Like burdens!
Shattered dreams, too old at last?
Yesteryear keeps on draining my progress
Would it help just to dump all the doubts?
Walled in! Chained up! In clutter!
Is this what my life is about?
Time has come for clean sweep
To clear up psychic souvenirs
Heirlooms out! Just anchors
Conquering them my sticky fears
Memento of a breakdown
Won't let it spoil my future plans
A tidal wave of changes
Will wash away my obvious trance
No sentimental sad frown
'Cause I ain't dead, long lost or gone
Momento of a breakdown
A faithful heart has already won
Finally I feel motivation
Long enough been a slave of myself
Regain! Control! Stop whining!
Getting back my mental health
Venturing many new tomorrows
Mustn't wait till life passes by
Chin up! Chest out! Keep moving!
Good old days, fuck you and good bye!
Time has come for clean sweep
To clear up psychic souvenirs
Heirlooms out! Just anchors
Conquering them my sticky fears
Memento of a breakdown
Won't let it spoil my future plans
A tidal wave of changes
Will wash away my obvious trance
No sentimental sad frown
'Cause I ain't dead, long lost or gone
Momento of a breakdown
A faithful heart has already won
Memento of a breakdown
Won't let it spoil my future plans
I'll wipe away my trance
No sentimental sad frown
'Cause I ain't dead, long lost or gone
I have already won
Memento of a breakdown
Won't let it spoil my future plans
A tidal wave of changes
Will wash away my obvious trance
No sentimental sad frown
'Cause I ain't dead, long lost or gone
Momento of a breakdown
A faithful heart has already won
Has already won, has already won
