When My Time Comes
There were moments of dreams I was offered to save
I lived less like a workhorse, more like a slave
I thought that one quick moment that was noble or brave
Would be worth the most of my life
So I pointed my fingers and shouted few quotes I knew
As if something that's written should be taken as true
But every path I had taken and conclusion I drew
Would put truth back under the knife
And now the only piece of advice that continues to help
Is anyone that's making anything new only breaks something else
When my time comes
When my time comes
So I took what I wanted and put it out of my reach
I wanted to pay for my successes with all my defeats
And if Heaven was all that was promised to me
Why don't I pray for death?
Now, it seems like the unravelling started too soon
Now I'm sleeping in hallways and I'm drinking perfume
And I'm speaking to mirrors and I'm howling at moons
While the worse and the worse that it gets
Oh, you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back
When my time comes
When my time comes
Well, you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back
When my time comes
When my time comes
When my time comes
I lived less like a workhorse, more like a slave
I thought that one quick moment that was noble or brave
Would be worth the most of my life
So I pointed my fingers and shouted few quotes I knew
As if something that's written should be taken as true
But every path I had taken and conclusion I drew
Would put truth back under the knife
And now the only piece of advice that continues to help
Is anyone that's making anything new only breaks something else
When my time comes
When my time comes
So I took what I wanted and put it out of my reach
I wanted to pay for my successes with all my defeats
And if Heaven was all that was promised to me
Why don't I pray for death?
Now, it seems like the unravelling started too soon
Now I'm sleeping in hallways and I'm drinking perfume
And I'm speaking to mirrors and I'm howling at moons
While the worse and the worse that it gets
Oh, you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back
When my time comes
When my time comes
Well, you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back
When my time comes
When my time comes
When my time comes
