The End Of Time

If time would run away,
our thoughts would leave this day,
and all the things you tried to hide,
would be all the things you'd say

I've run right of hope this time,
to find the rest I need-
In this dark, infected world...
There's no more to believe.
In this urgent, retching, pull of mine,
there's something I will find-
It'll take me past this atmosphere, to the heights I fear to climb.

My mind has gone astray-
To thoughtful debts enslaved:
"There's not much more to work for now,
if all the memories fade."

The race has gone depraved...
To mindless thoughts enslaved-
There's much more care for, "It's due now",
than thinking minds can take.

When everything's my way,
I'll never need to fake,
the smiles that mask those special times,
to cover up my pain-
There'll be no more tomorrows;
No more incessant ache-
And no more singing, "Time is out!"
'cause there'll be no more need to break

You see time will run away...
You see time will run away-
"Time will run away?"
"Yes, time will run away"...

Leaving for the day-
All our things have gone away,
In dreams, we cannot stay!
But I'm believing all the way,
that all the things that break this pain,
are all the things you say-

You see, all I want is bleeding...
No matter what I try-
All I want is the other life,
and nothing I can hide-
An atmosphere that suits my needs;
One that I don't despise-

Oh, where is my world?!
I'm out of head!
You know all the things I used to be,
are all the things you've read-
They're drawn right out of this spoil,
to come alive in bed...

"To come alive in bed?"
"To come alive in bed."

And now, time has run away...

"Time has run away?"
"Time has run away!"

Time has run away.
