Time's Tragedy Lyrics

What a tragedy

That there has to be

And end to some of the most beautiful things

What a miracle

And how cynical

That time marches on and we can't make it stop like the oracles

Mmhm

Oh

Years feel like decades and decades like minutes

Everything is so long but gone in an instant

Blink once and it's today but twice and it's next month

I'm not meant for time cause the clock will strike one

And I'll be left stranded at 9 in the morning

While you go ahead say goodnight to your darling

I'll be crying trying to escape the glass box

I can see everything and everyone move on

And I'm shocked

What a happy thing

That my memories

Fade with the moments that gave them their innocent life

My treacherous tears

Leave with all the years

You gave me hope and life and love and loads of unwanted fears

Oh

Years feel like decades and decades like minutes

Everything is so long but gone in an instant

Blink once and it's today but twice and it's next month

I'm not meant for time cause the clock will strike one

And I'll be left stranded at 9 in the morning

While you go ahead say goodnight to your darling

I'll be crying trying to escape the glass box

I can see everything and everyone move on

And I'm shocked

Oh thank goodness that

We never got a map

To show us where this whole entire thing would collapse

Cause if we did

I would've thrown a fit

And lit it on fire

Before we could even begin
