Adieu

Time moves slowly

When you don't want good things to end

The future's glowing

But uncertainty is 'round the bend

And I-I-I-I-I don't wanna leave

And I don't wanna be carried off by the breeze

And I-I-I-I-I just wanna sleep

But li-i-i-i-ife comes at a fee

I like that tune that you play

But I think I heard it the other day

I like the words you write

But that cliché's covered by copyright

That aftershave you wear smells good

But you have it on more than you should

That shaking smile looks almost real

So let's check the time

It's alright, it's only ten to two

And we don't know where we're heading to tonight

I can't make these words rhyme

I'm saying them as fast as I can

While reading them off the back of my hand

But they're blurring, haven't finished the line

Is the crowd even listening?

I've started so I'm finishing

Now I'm tired and my legs both ache

I'm snatching every breath I take

My voice is slowly faltering

I've entered, now I'm exiting
