|
There were moments of dreams |
|
I was offered to save. |
|
I lived less like a workhorse, |
|
more like a slave. |
|
I thought that one quick moment |
|
that was noble or brave |
|
would be worth the most of my life. |
|
So I pointed my fingers |
|
and shouted few quotes I knew, |
|
as if something that's written |
|
should be taken as true. |
|
But every path I had taken |
|
and conclusion I drew |
|
would put truth back under the knife. |
|
And now the only piece of advice that continues to help |
|
is anyone that's making anything new only breaks something else. |
|
When my time comes, |
|
Oh oh oh oh. |
|
When my time comes, |
|
Oh oh oh oh. |
|
So I took what I wanted |
|
and put it out of my reach. |
|
I wanted to pay for my successes |
|
with all my defeats. |
|
And if Heaven was all |
|
that was promised to me |
|
why don't I pray for death? |
|
Now it seems like the unravelling |
|
started too soon. |
|
Now I'm sleeping in hallways |
|
and I'm drinking perfume, |
|
and I'm speaking to mirrors, |
|
and I'm howling at moons, |
|
while the worse and the |
|
worse that it gets. |
|
Oh you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks. |
|
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back. |
|
When my time comes, |
|
Oh oh oh oh. |
|
When my time comes, |
|
Oh oh oh oh. |
|
Well you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks. |
|
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back. |
|
When my time comes, |
|
Oh oh oh oh. |
|
When my time comes, |
|
Oh oh oh oh. |
|
When my time comes, |
|
Oh oh oh oh. |
