Well, I can't move the weight in your eyes
And where's the switch to pull the tide?
Can a liar be your hero?

I just wanna be your friend
When the cat creeps out, out again
Knowing the chalk's out on the pillow

Cause you won't win til you begin
To see the days get older
With bottlecaps, less on their pages


You don't see, you don't see
You were never free

Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know

When it's your time to go
But I feel today
Is slipping away from me


When you're young, there is a garden
And there's a light that makes you grow

But can you see beyond the fireflies?
And see the diamonds in your hand
See the hourglass of sand

See where beautiful is in disguise
Sweet goodwill, where have you been?
Cause there's been a lot of talking

That there's a blanket on your pretty face

You don't see, you don't see

You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me

And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today

Is slipping away from me

You don't see, you don't see

You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me

And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today

You're slipping away

You don't see, you don't see

That you were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me

And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today

You're slipping away from me
