30 Minutes Lyrics
Mama, Papa forgive me
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of time to decide
Do we run? Should I hide
For the rest of my life
Can we fly? Do we stay?
We could lose we could fail
And the more minutes take
To make planer, or mistakes
30 minutes, the blink of the night
30 minutes to alter our lifes
30 minutes to make up my mind
30 minutes to finally decide
30 minutes to whisper your name
30 minutes to shelter the blame
30 minutes of bliss, 30 lies
30 minutes to finally decide
Carousels in the sky
That we shape with our eyes
Under shade silhouettes casting
shapes crying rain
Can we fly do I stay
We could lose, we could fail
Either way, options change
chances fail, Trains derail.
30 minutes, the blink of the night
30 minutes to all of our lifes
30 minutes to make up my mind
30 minutes to finally decide
30 minutes to whisper your name
30 minutes to show her the blame
30 minutes of bliss, 30 lies
30 minutes to finally decide
To decide, to decide to decide to decide
(repeat until fade)
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of time to decide
Do we run? Should I hide
For the rest of my life
Can we fly? Do we stay?
We could lose we could fail
And the more minutes take
To make planer, or mistakes
30 minutes, the blink of the night
30 minutes to alter our lifes
30 minutes to make up my mind
30 minutes to finally decide
30 minutes to whisper your name
30 minutes to shelter the blame
30 minutes of bliss, 30 lies
30 minutes to finally decide
Carousels in the sky
That we shape with our eyes
Under shade silhouettes casting
shapes crying rain
Can we fly do I stay
We could lose, we could fail
Either way, options change
chances fail, Trains derail.
30 minutes, the blink of the night
30 minutes to all of our lifes
30 minutes to make up my mind
30 minutes to finally decide
30 minutes to whisper your name
30 minutes to show her the blame
30 minutes of bliss, 30 lies
30 minutes to finally decide
To decide, to decide to decide to decide
(repeat until fade)

The video has a lot to do with the lyrics. Lena cheating on Yulya REPRESENTS how things can change so quickly. 30 minutes is the time that is set on the bomb. This all represents how the cheating happened so quickly, then 30 minutes is what Lena has to stop cheating, and what Yulya has to decide whether to kill the person she loves.
Oooh asphyxiating, this one is tough to crack. At least for me!
I'll try.
Okay I almost got it.
I feel this song is talking about how so much of your life can change in a short time based on your decisions. Like all it takes is 30 minutes for you to take a chance that will change your life forever.
This line seems pivotal in this song:
"In the moment it takes To make plans, or mistakes" (BTW I think the lyrics here might be a little off)
It's saying
It compares how long it takes for anything life changing to happen. 30 minutes is a blink of the night (it's so quick). 30 minutes to all of our lives (In 30 minutes you'll never live the same).
So its two of them deciding whether they should stay or run away together. And what makes that decision so hard is how it will dramatically change them for the rest of their lives. But it is ironic because the decision is only 30 minutes.
umm shoot!! 4got the meaning thing.. this song is basically saying if your gay friend is cheating on you...blow them up to pieces.. prefereably on a carnival.... ( I must comment on her creativity instinct..I mean honestly ... Yulya is very creative..wrapping dynamite like that is one of the prettiest thing a gal can ever do...and she was very nimble...) anyway the best part is when Lena and her fag got blown up... I almost replayed the scene for an entire 3hours... ahhh the meaning is very deep indeed.... and very positive to the teens of this generation ..thumbs up tatoo...
I'm going to put a very different spin on it. 30 minutes is how long it takes for an intercontinental nuclear missile to get from Russia to the United States, and vice-versa. 30 minutes to contemplate the rest of your life, and how it, and the world, is about to end. "Should I run, should I hide, for the rest of my life?" There's no running or hiding from that. It's a cry to the powers that be to put away such things before we're all left with only 30 minutes...
i cant believe no one has posted to this song i think it is the greatest song on there album how can no one post? but one problem im confused about the meaning can someone please tell me about it?
I've seen the music video done for this and, in the video, one of them cheats on the other (I can't remember which). So she puts a bomb in the other girl's purse, giving her thirty minutes to make things right.
But I agree with chino69 on how life can change.
It's about Lena cheating on Yulya. Yulya makes a bomb and kills Lena and her boyfriend. The timer on the bomb is set at 30 minutes.
I don't think the video has anything to do with the lyrics. I agree with the above, the song is about how time can change in just a sorten amout of time, adding on...the lyrics are incorrect. It's "30 minutes of a blink of an EYE" not a night
*correction, 30 minutes, a blink of an eye
I love the video, I never see it anymore
