Time

Prayin' for
the storm that never comes
Waitin' for those clouds to turn the darkest
blue
Sittin' in a house that you won't call a home
Cryin' for the rain to
come and swallow you

Mama won't you take me back to better days
Where my
mind was wrong but the words they came out right
Had I known that age would
take my breath away
I'm sure I would have put up a better fight

Baby I got
numbers all across my skin
Reminding me of all the times I let you go
Maybe
the rain will come around and drown my sins
But life's not kind I for one
would know

Now I'm wondering where I left myself
Back before and the spaces
in between
Dark in day you will never understand my pain
All the things I've
heard all the things I've
heard all the things I've seen

Time tells all but it don't tell me
Time is cruel but it helps me see
Time is all the things you want and hate
together
Time is all I need


With city lights making up for the missing
stars
Each night seems more redundant than the last
So if you want me will
you just let me know
Because your memory lingers and it just won't pass
