Tiny Room in Time

The ponies run, the girls are young
The boys are cute, but not for long
Oh what a pain to understand
That this will end
And your whole world, your universe
This mighty frame of life
Is just a tiny souvenir
In a tiny room in time

While time races like a train
With cruelty, speed, and force
You'd love to live a little longer
Behind those tiny doors
But behind those doors, behind those walls
Is nothing worth a dime
All that matters to you is trapped
In this tiny room in time

So all the things you fight for
Your values, hopes, and crimes
Are just the pictures on the wall
In a tiny room in time

You try to stuff things into your pockets
All the things you've owned and saved
Your humble success, your tiny fame
The love you got, the love you gave
But it won't matter where you go
When you finally leave behind
The things that matter at all
In this tiny room in time

So when it's time to die
From age or love or boredom
You try to cheer up your loved ones
With your toothless smile
There might be a silent tear
Coming with your last good bye
But even this sadness you'll leave behind
In that tiny room in time

So all the things you fight for
Your values, hopes, and crimes
Are just the pictures on the wall
In a tiny room in time

So all the things you fight for
Your values, hopes, and crimes
Are just the pictures on the wall
In a tiny room in time
