matthias - starting over lyrics

[verse 1]
the first page of an empty notebook
like the first stage of my open playbook
makin’ out like i didn’t care, didn’t get me anywhere
took me nowhere, i’m broken and bare

i’m tired of doing the dirty work
working for that little life lesson
but i’m guessing no one ever taught me this lesson
take what you deserve and quit, quit asking for permission

the only question you’ll be asked at the top is
“where you been? what’d you take, a pit stop?”
forget it, i’mma do me from now on
stop tripping out about all this doubt, yeah, and where i belong

they say, “dream big, bigger than ever before”
but if i keep dreaming, time will keep flying through that door
they say, “pick something, something you can steer towards”
but it’s got to be something worth aiming for

so i shoot for the moon, hoping to land in the stars
but i’m constantly being blocked by venus and mars
so i just sit back, see if it’s in the cards
waiting to play my lonely queen of hearts

[chorus]
i think it’s time to start over
and set the record straight
this time when i start over
i won’t hesitate

[verse 2]
i thought this p-ssion was something that’s supposed to last ya
but if i don’t use it, i promise i’ll go stagnant
i’m tired of people asking why i’m missing in action
i was supposed to be this big main attraction

but kept making excuses like i was distracted
lacked enthusiasm or financial backing
but the truth is, procrastination is the lag time
between thought and action

i’m consumed with being better, better than i was yesterday
but that’s a tricky game, because yesterday’s a different day
and i don’t look to the past, ’cause when i do i’m suddenly aware
of all the time that’s lapsed, i’ve wasted all that time looking back

and now i’m two halves split between the future and the past
never present, just obsessing over every task
stuck in this endless looping soundtrack
there’s no reset b-tton on my back

[chorus]
i think it’s time to start over
and set the record straight
this time when i start over
i won’t hesitate

[bridge]
so let’s just drink a little tonight
enough to make this right
saying, “next time”
“next time”

so pour me just a little more
and i’ll forget what i should ignore
saying, “there’s no pretending anymore”

[chorus]
i think it’s time to start over
and set the record straight
this time when i start over
i won’t hesitate
