Daylight Saving

Five pm on a Saturday
What's not weighed down will fly away
Life's a dance, maybe a ballet
Choreographed disarray

Give me just one more hour
Go on and fight time, soldier

Backdrops of Burgundy
That spin and float and pixelate
Red wine shines through the windowpane
Our descent accelerates

Give me just one more hour
Go on and fight time, soldier

Let me just stay right here
As we're falling into what comes next
Let's stop right here, a time delay
A battle that we will lose
It's a worthless rescue mission
There's not much more daylight to save

The damsel's crying louder
I hear her shout from her clock tower
Who, oh, who will take the call?
With every minute fleeting
Each attempt is more defeating
Time is up and we fall

Five pm on a dark Monday
Headlights shine on the freeway
It's too soon to lose that light
Trade our daytimes in for nights

Let me just stay right here
As we're falling into what comes next
Let's stop right here, a time delay
A battle that we will lose
It's a worthless rescue mission
There's not much more daylight to save
We ran out of daylight to save
