Time

I was believed in when I didn't believe in myself
My friends was like my family, and yeah I got a lot of help
Played the cards that got dealt, poker face when I fell
Layover in Paris, so I'm staring at the Eiffel

Time passed me over, world fair stood till it's over
Temporary, outlived the moment
Main attraction was the iron shoulders
Time ran away from me, visions of when I was only 17
Years later, all my memory, fade to black February 17

Overdose, all my plans got overwrote
Cold needle when I awoke
Razor blade, I abandoned hope
On the bleeding edge, on a tightrope
And I wonder, if Jesus came back would he ponder
Free will that we squander, black mirrors, corrosive thunder
Rain down on us

I think we poison the wells out of which we all drink
I'm wasting my time when I'm trying to sleep
The world is on fire so try not to blink
I try not to miss it
I try not to let it slip through my fingers
I try not to hate it
But I turn on the news and we murdering children
And women, and difference
Conservatism is religion
Making sense of this hieroglyphic
Every tragedy is spot the difference

Need a remedy for my disinterest
Neon lights and my eye fatigue
Rolling dice with my privacy
And I'm photosensitive in my dreams
Kicking rocks of amphetamines
Change the locks but forget the key
Splitting lanes on my bare feet
And recovery is learning how to breathe

Change paths, tracks
Dance, cold hands
Romance
