Do you ever glance at your watch?
Like never?

... Yeah it shows
Explains your bad timing
Your selfish ways
Your nonchalance
Your all nighting
Your need to play
Your childish taunts

Explains why you are here and there
In and out
Everywhere
Except at the house

Explains why you can't explain
"I am busy" are the only words that you can say

When dinner is preparing
The chicken is turning
Pasta is churning
Bread is burning

It's you who I'm learning
I fix my plate 30 minutes early
Knowing that you gonna be late
8 turns into 8
Night turns into morning

And you out by noon because of something suddenly alarming

But whenever my call pop up you steadily ignoring

In a relationship where one person live by eastern timing and the other is 3 hours behind

How do they ever spend time?

When one person speaks English and the other speaks German

How do they ever rhyme?

When one person is alone and the other is accompanied

How do they ever bind?

And if I'm never on your mind
Why don't I nevermind?

And stop letting time roll by

Every minute
Your'e never in it

Every second
I always come second

And every time the long hand reaches 12
I'm always by myself

I might buy you a digital watch to see if that helps
