It starts with one thing [I don’t know why It doesn’t even matter how hard you try keep that in mind I designed this rhyme To explain in due time] {All I know} [Time is a valuable thing Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock ticks life away] {It’s so unreal} [Didn’t look out below Watch the time go right out the window Trying to hold on, but didn’t even know Wasted it all just to watch you go] Wasted it all [I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when]
{I tried so hard} And got so far But in the end It doesn’t even matter I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn’t even matter
[One thing, I don’t know why It doesn’t even matter how hard you try keep that in mind I designed this rhyme, to remind myself how] {I tried so hard} [In spite of the way you were mocking me Acting like I was part of your property Remembering all the times you fought with me] I’m surprised it {got so far} [Things aren’t the way they were before You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore Not that you knew me back then But it all comes back to me] {in the end} [You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when]
I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn’t even matter I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn’t even matter
I’ve put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go And for all this There’s only one thing you should know (2x)
I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn’t even matter I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn’t even matter
