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 |
