Wonderful Lie

I've been away for months

And I can't really take it anymore

'Cause every time I go

I learn the hours better than before

I know there's twenty-four and they're moving slow

Because the minutes carry me away

Am I spending time, is it spending me

'Cause every second feels like it's a day

Where did it go

I never cared for tomorrow

Just a wonderful lie

The confident kid who would never die

The world was weighing down

And I just can't ignore it anymore

'Cause every time I leave

It kills me as I'm walking out the door

For I am well aware this is all I have

People in places that I've grown to need

And it's enough to make every second seem

Like it's the currency of feeling free

It's broken my heart, I'm seeing inside

With every breath I take I'm more aware of time

Yeah where can I find the peace of mind

That I had back then
