Timelines |
Sifting through the broken glass |
The echoes of my ancient past |
Keep flooding into every pore |
Like scattered seeds of sycamore |
Suddenly I started wondering how I got here |
Was it a matter of time? |
Catholic school my private hell |
I stuttered 'til the age of twelve |
Discovered sex at seventeen |
And soon thereafter, self-esteem |
The days did not matter |
And years were a lifetime away |
Drowning in a heavy stock |
Of teenage girls and indie rock |
I flunked out of each college course |
And set my sails for no remorse |
The nights were for nowhere |
And that’s where I wanted to be |
Someone said |
«It's not a matter of time, it’s just a matter of timing» |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
It’s not a matter of time, it’s just a matter of timing |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
Branded, marked, and paper thin |
This angry saint went marching in |
To war with scores of ninety proof |
Found nothing but the ugly truth |
A decade of wastage |
An instant and everything’s changed |
Woke up feeling thirty-five |
Though grateful that I’m still alive |
Another chance at normalcy |
To chase the dream, but now it seems |
That days run away like wild horses over the hills |
Someone said |
«It's not a matter of time, it’s just a matter of timing» |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
(It's just a matter of time) |
It’s not a matter of time, it’s just a matter of timing |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
Take it in and hold on while you can |
All the destruction will one day end |
And you’ll finally know exactly who you are |
It’s just a matter of timing |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
(It's just a matter of time) |
It’s not a matter of time, it’s just a matter of timing |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
(It's just a matter of time) |
It’s not a matter of time, it’s just a matter of timing |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
Do you ever wonder how you got to here? |
