Na na na na na na

Verse 1

The same tears

On a different face

Verse 1

What a wreck

I've caused

Verse 1

Given too much again

Hid myself too long

I rode along with you

But I was on the back

Chorus 1

I keep falling into patterns

Don't know how to prevent it

Chorus 1

With my eyes open

I keep walking into my pitfalls

Chorus 1

I keep falling into patterns

I've locked myself in

Chorus 1

With you, with you

Verse 2

I see the signs

It holds me again

The familiar stories

And still surprised again

Verse 2

I stood on my own two feet

But shaky for you

Verse 2

Slowly disappeared into you

No longer true to myself

Verse 2

And that isn't on you

Because next time I'll fall again

Chorus 2

I keep falling into patterns

Don't know how to prevent it

Chorus 2

With my eyes open

I keep walking into my pitfalls

Chorus 2

I keep falling into patterns

I've locked myself in

Chorus 2

With you, with you

Bridge

Thought I knew myself by now

But I keep running in circles

Bridge

I let myself be tamed again

And keep drowning myself out

Bridge

Drive me into a corner, into a corner, into a corner

And that isn't on you, not on you, not on you

Because next time I'll fall again

Chorus 3

I keep falling into patterns

Don't know how to prevent it

Chorus 3

With my eyes open

I keep walking into my pitfalls

Chorus 3

I keep falling into patterns

I've locked myself in

Chorus 3

With you, with you

I keep falling into patterns

Don't know how to prevent it

Chorus 3

With my eyes open

I keep walking into my pitfalls

Chorus 3

I keep falling into patterns

I've locked myself in

Chorus 3

With you, with you

Chorus 3

Na na na na na na

SONG MEANING

Catchy synths, a carefree “na-na-na,” and then… a brutal dose of self-reflection! In “Patronen,” Dutch pop sensation MEROL turns a dance-floor groove into a confession booth. She sings about always hopping on the back seat of someone else’s life, pouring out too much love, and then watching the wreckage she has caused. Even with her eyes wide open, she keeps stepping into the same emotional potholes. The chorus repeats like a spinning record, mirroring the very cycles she is stuck in.

Behind the playful melody lies a story of self-awareness versus self-sabotage. MEROL knows the warning signs, yet she locks herself away in relationships that drown out her own voice. She admits it is not her partner’s fault – the next time, she will probably fall again. That honesty transforms “Patronen” into an anthem for anyone who has ever sworn “never again” while secretly fearing they will repeat the past. Put simply, it is a bouncy pop track that hands you a mirror and dares you to look. 🎡
