Time / Use The Man |
| Father time, I’m running late |
| I’m winding down, I’m growing tired |
| Seconds drift into the night |
| The clock just ticks till my time expires |
| You were once my friend |
| Now I know I can’t tie your hands |
| The days I saved I couldn’t spend |
| They fell like sand through the hourglass |
| No time to lose, no time to choose |
| Time taking time, it’s taken mine |
| Scenes of my life seem so unkind |
| Time chasing time, creeps up behind |
| I can’t run forever, and time waits for no one |
| Not even me I heard somebody fixed today |
| There was no last goodbyes to say |
| His will to live ran out |
| I heard somebody turned to dust |
| Looking back at what he left |
| A list of plans and photographs |
| Songs that never will be sung |
| These are the thinge he won’t get done |
| I’ve seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use the man |
| I’ve seen them crawl from the cradle to the gutter on their hands |
| They fight a war but it’s fatal, it’s so hard to understand |
| I’ve seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use that man |
| Just one shot to say goodbye |
| One last taste to mourn and cry |
| Scores and shoots, the lights go dim |
| Just one shot to do him in He hangs his head and wonders why |
| Why the monkey only lies |
| But pay the pauper, he did choose |
| He hung his head inside the noose |
| I’ve seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use that man |
| I’ve seen them crawl from the cradle to the coffin on their hands |
| They fight a war but it’s fatal, it’s so hard to understand |
| I’ve seen the man use the needle, seen the needle in his hand |
| Cryptic writing on the wall, the beginning of the end |
| I’ve seen myself use the needle, seen the needle in my hand |
