Year Zero

from Too Bad by Jonathan Snee

lyrics

Someone's been keeping her secrets locked up tight.
Someone who's been keeping her secrets her whole life.
And she's only told one person those secrets.
And the biggest one was she wanted him to keep them.

But it's out now, and everyone knows what she's scared of.
The things in the dark and the future.
And missing any second of the life she always wanted, the life she always wanted.

Someone's been keeping his secrets from himself.
Someone who thinks he can still hold on to his youth.
And he's told himself that lie so many times he believes it.
But no matter how convincing he is, she sees right through him.

But it's out now, he'll never grow up and he hates it.
These 22 years have been wasted.
And what's he got to show for it, what's he got to show except, a scar or two that no one will ever see.

It's amazing, the things that have to happen, to pull two people together.
It's amazing, the life that stretches out for you, before you have a chance to feel afraid.
It's amazing, how strong you become, just by being on your own.
It's amazing, how easily it shatters, when someone makes you their home, and gets into your head and makes love in your bed, and all the things that you thought were secret,

Well they're out now, and life doesn't stop because you want it.
The only way for you to go is forward.
The clocks won't go back, so set them all to zero, and you can start again.
