Fifteen Minutes Lyrics

Everybody wants to see you broken down by law

And everybody wants to see you crippled and diseased

Everybody wants to see you broken up by light and day

And everybody wants to see you jobless on your knees

Maybe I don't wanna be that brutal branch of man

And maybe I don't wanna rip this flesh right from the bone

And maybe I will feel this burn for years after, years after

I pledge my patience in the memory of a stone, of a stone

Do you wanna walk by me, bodies moving at your feet

Seconds go so fast, could you make fifteen minutes last forever?

I remember seeing you dead quiet in your house

Choked up on dreams of burning money in the dark

This doesn't have to be so cold and angry, cold and angry

Self-cut rebellion, it's so cold for all our lives, for our lives

Do you wanna walk by me, bodies moving at your feet

Seconds go so fast, could you make fifteen minutes last forever?

I don't know what you've been told, lovers die but some grow old

With you by my side, could I be someone better, so much stronger?

Oh was I brave enough to be scared at all

Into this pale deliverance we are thrown

Try and try oh but you can't get lost

And I can't do, can't do this on my own

Do you wanna walk by me, bodies moving at your feet

Seconds go so fast, could you make fifteen minutes last forever?

I don't know what you've been told, lovers die but some grow old

With you by my side, could I be someone better, so much stronger?
