You're running out, your heavy heart, I hope it slows you down

That shifts and brings your head back to this place

Everybody does their time on the fault line
D F
For now let's keep our feet on the same side

Be the nine and I'll be the three

On a clock that lies over a map of this country

There's some things that time can't change, oh
