The lyrics to “Crystal” by Lomepal

[Refrain]
Nothing to undo, nothing to redo
The world is spinning again, this time I'm letting go
The mind resists, but the heart has understood
The world is spinning again, this time I'm letting go

[Verse 1 (the only one)]
I still don't really know where I stand
10:30 a.m., I'm eating some Frosties with a prostitute
She's my best friend—we hang out either to crack jokes or to give each other advice; that's how we love each other
But this morning is different
She asks me if I'd mind throwing away the crystals she hid in a tin can
She says she's afraid she won't be able to control her addiction anymore
I don't dare tell him that's exactly the idea
She's unlikable when she's not taking it—hmm, I'd say it's the other way around, but whatever…
Since I don't take any, I don't understand
It's the joy of trust, and you never forget it—just like riding a bike
Or like a good melody, go ahead, reopen the cello'
Nope, not one more run—it's over
She can't take it anymore, she wants more
Except that talking about life is too hard—it really gets on your nerves.
So she holds off for 24 hours, giving herself time to keep telling herself the same thing

[Refrain]
Nothing to undo, nothing to redo
The world is spinning again, this time I'm letting go
The mind resists, but the heart has understood
The world is spinning again, this time I'm letting go

[Instrumental + Outro]

Ohh, this time I let go, this time I let go, this time I let go
Nothing to undo, nothing to redo
Ohh this time I'm letting go
Ohh, ohh, oh, oh, ohh
This time I let go, this time I let go, this time I let go

The lyrics were written by Lomepal, based on a composition by Louis-Gabriel Gonzalez and Antoine Valentinelli. The song describes an everyday scene: the “I” watches a friend who wants to unplug, but can’t quite manage it.

The Chorus «The world keeps turning; this time, I'm letting go.» summarizes this struggle between a mind that resists and a heart that has already understood. A simple tension, presented without artifice.
