"Time,
You're a  cruel enemy
That takes away friendships
Comfort,
and memories
That strips health away
And all of the innocence that the world ever  held

Time ,
Why do you like to move so fast ?
Why don't you stay for a while?
Your seconds minutes and hours
Seem to get more sour
Are you losing all of your power?
Or do you enjoy seeing dead flowers
And the seasons going faster and faster?

Time ,
You are taking my livelihood away
You say that we have to smile trougth pain
But it feels like an eternal circle that won't go away
When will you finally let us rest?
Is there ever going to be an end to this test?

Time ,
I wonder
Why do you give me so much?
If you take it away
Why do you promise the world?
If it's not going to be okay
You gave me everything I have
But you're taking away everything I am

Oh time ,
When will It go back to what it was?
When will you stop being the enemy of life?
When will you stop being everything I need and despise at the same time?

Oh time ,
When did you turn your back to life?
