Where Does the Time Go

I spend my nights realizing that the future
Is a puzzle I can't crack
And I was never good at taking mistakes back
And so I choose to run away
Or withdraw to my own place
And make these problems ones I don't have to face

And it's been five years
But I keep thinking
Where does the time go?
Where does the time go?
No one can swim against that undertow
You made sure I couldn't win
But I don't choose my dreams
Now I only search for you
In everything

I spend my days accepting that our past
Is a lock without a key
But breaking things never appealed to me
You knew that we'd need time
And maybe that was your design
To run so fast that I'd never decide

Like a shadow when I shine the light
It's gone
The elusiveness is the force that drives me on
Drives me on
Drives me on

And it's been five years
But I keep thinking
Where does the time go?
No one can swim against that undertow
You made sure I couldn't win
But I don't choose my dreams
Now I only search for you
In everything

(Five years but I keep thinking)
(Five years but I keep thinking)
(No one can swim against that undertow) In everything
(You made sure I couldn't win)
(But I don't choose my dreams)
Now I only search for you
In everything
