Time and Ash

[Intro]

I’m caught in my head
I’m caught feeling dead
Sought out a better way but here’s another day stuck in my bed
I’m caught in my head
I’m caught feeling dead
Sought out a better way but here’s another day stuck in my bed

[Verse 1]

You ain’t really got it bad, no
We’re all fighting our same plans, yeah
Every month is rolling around (woah)
More quickly than I remember (woah)
And Christmas dinner's barely (woah) cooled, but
Now we’re back at December (woah)

[Bridge]

Time gets what it wants
It takes what it needs
It takes it on greed and then
Well, after it leaves...
We all want
And we all ask
Please slow down
You move too goddamned fast

[Verse 2]

I can ignore it for most of the year
Till another one starts and somewhere in the mirror
I see the lines in my face
And I watch ‘em grow deeper each day
And worse than the thought of the age on the surface
Is behind my eyes where I start feeling worthless
The calendar moves so much faster than me
The turning of pages is laughter at me
And no matter what I do, there’s no price that I can pay
I can’t make the clocks break, I can’t cancel a day
I can’t say I’m insane and just ask for a break
And for all that I give it’s double that you take

[Outro]

It feels like a race with weights on my feet
And it sounds like the world’s saddest heartbeat...
