Time Is a Thief
I don't wanna believe that I'm dying
Yet I can't help but notice that I'm barely hangin' on
I wanna believe that I'm trying
But every time I open my eyes, the world's on fire
See, the same thing that drives your passion
The same thing that makes us cold
Like every modern fashion
What once was new will soon be old
Time is a thief
Yeah, in this life, there's no guarantee
Time's gonna teach you
That you can't cheat time, ain't no lie
Time is a thief
Just tickin' along, no matter where you're goin'
What are you willin' to do with your time?
With your time
I know it's hard to believe it gets better
But take it from me, when you just change your gaze
You change your ways
If they don't wanna believe, forget 'em
'Cause you can lead a horse to water
But they'll never drink 'til they wanna
See, the same thing that drives your passion
The same thing that makes us cold
Like every modern fashion
What once was new will soon be old
Time is a thief
In this life, there's no guarantee
Time's gonna teach you
That you can't cheat time, ain't no lie
Time is a thief
Just tickin' along, no matter where you're goin'
What are you willin' to do with your time?
With your time, ooh
See, the same thing that drives your passion (same thing that drives)
The same thing that makes us cold (your passion)
Like every modern fashion (like every modern fashion)
What once was new will soon be old
Time is a thief
In this life, there's no guarantee
Time's gonna teach you
That you can't cheat time, ain't no lie
Time is a thief
Just tickin' along, no matter where you're goin'
What are you willin' to do with your time?
Time is a thief
In this life, there's no guarantee
Time's gonna teach you
That you can't cheat time
Time is a thief
Just tickin' along, no matter where you're goin'
What are you willin' to do with your time?
With your time, ooh
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh
Yet I can't help but notice that I'm barely hangin' on
I wanna believe that I'm trying

Like every modern fashion
What once was new will soon be old
Time is a thief
Yeah, in this life, there's no guarantee
Time's gonna teach you
That you can't cheat time, ain't no lie
Time is a thief
Just tickin' along, no matter where you're goin'
What are you willin' to do with your time?

See, the same thing that drives your passion
The same thing that makes us cold
Like every modern fashion
