Lyrics
Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He's waiting in the wings
He speaks of senseless things
His script is you and me boys
He flexes like a whore
Falls wanking to the floor
His trick is you and me, boy
In Quaaludes and red wine
Demanding Billy Dolls
And other friends of mine
Take your time
The sniper in the brain, regurgitating drain
Incestuous and vain,
and many other last names
I look at my watch it say 9:25 and I think
Oh God I'm still alive
We should be on by now
You are not a victim
You just scream with boredom
You are not evicting time
Chimes - Goddamn, you're looking old
You'll freeze and catch a cold
'Cause you've left your coat behind
Take your time
Breaking up is hard, but keeping dark is hateful
I had so many dreams,
I had so many breakthroughs
But you, my love, were kind, but love has left you
dreamless
The door to dreams was closed.
Your park was real dreamless
Perhaps you're smiling now,
smiling through this darkness
But all I had to give was the guilt for dreaming
We should be on by now
