[00:09.40]Sonic satisfaction
[00:11.02]Holds my ears in sweet embrace
[00:15.77]The endless chain reaction
[00:20.69]Of what we give and what we take
[00:24.19]Going through the motions
[00:28.68]And acting out this part
[00:33.80]Sifting through the pages
[00:38.61]Of the life that I can start
[00:42.47]Calloused fingers fumble
[00:53.45]On the boardwalk of my muse
[00:57.14]Feeling fit to crumble
[01:01.51]Some days I wake up with the blues
[01:06.12]Holding onto my time
[01:10.43]Or at least what I've got left
[01:14.61]I'll work with what I'm given
[01:21.54]And I'll dream up all the rest
[01:23.91]Throw away the watches
[02:09.09]Call off every bet
[02:12.46]The time ain't mine for saving
[02:16.38]But I'll take what I can get
[02:20.38]Holding onto wisdom
[02:24.25]Of the ones who came before
[02:28.81]Floating in the balance
[02:33.98]Of the calm before the storm
