lyrics

Time Time Time

I used to walk in the park
Every Sunday afternoon
Somedays you would join me hand in hand
Our own summer honeymoon

But the weather started getting cold
And everything we did was old
I couldn't give you enough stuff
Commitment, love and sure enough I'm

Fresh out of promises and I
Lack lust for anything and I've
Bled you of any further purpose
Positive or otherwise
Delusion kept me semi-sane
You tolerate my fragile state
I've got to wake up now
Because I fear it's all a waste of time

Time
Oh Time
Time

I used to paint
Pretty pictures and write stories in my room
Dedicating colors
And certain sentimental lines to you.

But my pages would begin to fold
My paintings never really sold
I couldn't give you enough stuff
Adventure, luck and sure enough I'm

Fresh out of promises and I
Lack lust for anything and I've
Bled you of any further purpose
Positive or otherwise
Delusion kept me semi-sane
You tolerate my fragile state
I've got to wake up now
Because I fear it's all a waste of time

So the days go by each time
And I just stand there tearing pages
From the calendar I bought here last September
Do you remember we had great big plans to put our lives together
To put our lives together
To put our lives...

Fresh out of promises and I
Lack lust for anything and I've
Bled you of any further purpose
Positive or otherwise
Delusion kept me semi-sane
You tolerate my fragile state
I've got to wake up now
Because I fear it's all a waste of...

Fresh out of promises and I
Lack lust for anything and I've
Bled you of any further purpose
Positive or otherwise
Delusion kept me semi-sane
You tolerate my fragile state
I've got to wake up now
Because I fear it's all a waste of time
