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

Alright,
C#
Time never ends it carries on
A#m Eb
ticking away inside this time bomb,
Fm C# Eb
Over and over again until we're go - one,
Fm Fm
Time will be on our side,
Time will be on our side.
