Shorter Shorter

I was counting the days
And I was counting the reasons
I was satisfied
Everything is fine
But you should never count

Shorter, shorter
No time to spare
The irony's clear
But I can never be sure
Shorter, shorter
It's easy here
You can blame it all on her
But you can never be sure

I was waiting in line
And I was waiting for something
That was years ago
I was pretending I knew
But you should never wait

Shorter, shorter
No time to spare
It'll soon disappear
But you can never be sure
Shorter, shorter
So hard to tell
If it's cut or ended (?)
I can never be sure

Don't say it's easy to tell
When I find it so hard to look
Don't say it's easy to be you
