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