Gm
Is it giving up or giving in?
D# Cm Gm
Living our lives left unattended is a cardinal sin,
We can trace it back thought the years,
D# F Gm
We could pin every hope on the future and conceal the tears,
F
But we are the ones to blame,
D#
Never again, we cry
Cm F Gm
Please open our eyes to the world we're setting alight,
F D#
Pray to God to put it to right
F
Time will wait for no one but itself, but itself,
Gm D#
Time after time (as the hands unwind)
Minutes and hours pass,
F Gm D#
We find ourselves, find ourselves committing the crime (Time will be the end of us all)
Gm A# F Cm
Is the life we treasure poured out in equal measures?
D# F
I guess we'll never know.
Gm
When they take the sun out from the sky
D#
will we complain that there's no light to shed
Cm Gm
on what we've done to ourselves?
I've got a reason to believe
F
Something can save us from our reprieve,
Cm Gm
But only if we learn
F Cm
from pages that we've turned,
A#
Get ready to sink or swim
Cm Gm A# D#
we're dancing on land-mines treading water again,
F
Time will wait for no one but itself, but itself,
Gm D#
Time after time (as the hands unwind)
Minutes and hours pass,
F Gm D#
We find ourselves, find ourselves committing the crime (Time will be the end of us all)
Gm A# F Cm
Is the life we treasure poured out in equal measures?
Cm
Equal measures?
Gm A# F Cm
(just drums)
Push it under the carpet,
And put it out from your sight,
Gm
Sweep it under the carpet,
Pray that everything is
A# F Gm D# Gm
Alri - i - ight,
A# Gm D# F
Alri - ight,
Gm
Alright,
D#
Time never ends it carries on
Cm F
ticking away inside this time bomb,
Gm D# F
Over and over again until we're go - one,
Gm Gm
Time will be on our side,
Time will be on our side.
