How long until I fail again
Fail again to die

How long until I fail again
I feel the time is nigh 

Tinman goes along in life
With no heart in his chest

Few know he chopped his own heart out
To put the pain to rest

He hoped leading a heartless life
Would let him live life without pain

Yet he still feels each sling and arrow
Over and again

How long until I fail again
Fail again to die

How long until I fail again
I'll never fail to try

Time is all we have
Time we never know
Time to live and love
Then it's time for us to go

You slipped right through my fingers
While I was busy living mine
I thought that we could catch up
Though we were so very far behind

Time was all we had
But little did we know
That your time to live and love
Would end before our next hello

— The End —
