Time

Everyday I wish that time ticks slowly So I could find a way to balance and hold me Down to the ground keep on floating away As I drown out the sound when I'm dozing awake But it seems that I'll never wake up Stay in dreams of a Saturday's fun Such a breeze when your heaven ain't much But a seven day, un-delayed month Passing through days in fast steady pace, out of touch Its chapter per page, writing rushed Will I last through this haze while I'm blinded from change Or will I come back with a grudge? Listen, Tick tick where'd the time go Need a minute to be mindful I'm a cynic with my eyes closed And I'm feeling schizophrenic Someone's stealing from my time zone But what do I know Time feels short and too much has passed To recharge and restore, can't afford to relax Cause I'm poor from the taxes Unfortunate rations I gorge then resort to a fast Starving for more time It's getting harder and harder to find Is it impossible to halt the flow? Playing catch up inside of my mind Everyday I wish that time ticks slowly So I could find a way to balance and hold me Down to the ground keep on floating away As I drown out the sound when I'm dozing awake Keep sleeping at home, not playing for keeps I dream of bare faces replacing family Relations turn dull with no time to reach I'll settle for seconds then leave 'em Dreaming of places to be Finding the faults in complacent beliefs Without regard left the taste of the sea Knowing the change is to start when I see it Starving for more time It's getting harder and harder to find Is it impossible to halt the flow? Playing catch up inside of my mind Everyday I wish that time ticks slowly So I could find a way to balance and hold me Down to the ground keep on floating away As I drown out the sound when I'm dozing awake Everyday I wish that time ticks slowly So I could find a way to balance and hold me Down to the ground keep on floating away As I drown out the sound when I'm dozing awake
