The Time

Sitting in a corner

In my castle made of single-malt and smoke

With all my friends around me

And I love them "till I choke

And I watch you dance with someone

Someone not even there

And you're simple as in sacrilege

And you are pure as in player

Somewhere there's a point of no resistance

But we make sure there's no getting there

And we're beautiful when we're animals

But so easily scared

And I cannot even talk to you

Stricken down as a hunter to its prey

Sliding down, down this hill of glass again

And there's nothing I can say

I guess it's just the time

I guess it's just the time

I guess it's just the time

And I will see you when the time is over

And then the northern wind calls

And then curtains part

And then the castle wall falls

And there's an arrow in my heart

There's only one way out of prison

Which is to set your jailer free

But then, it's just another bunch of pretty words

That stand between the sailor and the sea

So forgive me, though I know you never will

Battered by your pride

And so I'm locked again within these castle walls

And you freeze alone outside

I guess it's just the time

I guess it's just the time

I guess it's just the time

And I will see you when the time is over
