All I ever used to want is time And now the hands have been taken off of clocks, And while I still hear the ticking- I have to guess if it’s only in my head Or 5 o’clock somewhere again
And I never wake up to the sun. I’m ghoulish white counting the bricks of my chamber Trying to figure out if I would die if I jumped from the window If I would die from being in a market Or hugging someone I loved
All I ever used to want is time. And now it just feels like we’re living fast forward in slow motion. Going nowhere. But advancing through our scenes.
