Time Inside - Stan Ridgway

Time is lifeless

Time is here

Time is frozen

And it seems like years

Time is rolling

Time is wrong

No one knowing

Why it takes so long

But then you gotta roll aside

Nobody will help you

To decide

What time will be made of

You will ride

Whatever you make of

Time inside

Time will kill you

Time will heal

Time will make you

Give away or steal

Time won’t ask and

Time won’t talk

Time will wash away

The sidewalk chalk

But then you gotta roll aside

Nobody will help you

To decide

What time will be made of

You will ride

Whatever you make of

Time…

Time…

Time won’t lay down

Won’t behave

Time will wear out

Like a road you pave

We are motion

We are mind

We are oceans

Winding round through time

But then you gotta roll aside

Nobody will help you

To decide

What time will be made of

You will ride

Whatever you make of

Time…

Time…
