Time


Time, I’m begging you please

Slow down for me

You’re going too fast

Like a child running mad

 

Yes, Like a child running mad

 

Time, please go real slow

 

So I can feel hope

Run in my veins

Run in my soul

Cause I need to go slow

 

Everything seems like its out of my reach

My skin and my faith are falling at the seams

I’m dreaming too big while the seconds tick by

And all I need is TIME

 

So time, i'll beg you once more

Please go real slow

Hold on to me

As I search for a home

As I try to reach home. 

 

Time, you're going too fast

Like a child running mad

I'm running out of air

Running out of laughs

 

Running out of laughs

 

Time, please listen to me

I'm bleeding these words

I'm bleeding more words

 

Cause' you're not going slow.
