Eyes are blinded by tears of pain
Hopes and dreams are shattered into fragments time and time again
Life's a prison and death's the key
Time take my life (x's 9)
It's gotta bring me down. Down down down 'til I'm free.

Where's the reason and where's the rhyme
Life's a single second in the eternity of time
Life's a gift that time takes away
Time take my life (x's 9)
It's gotta bring me down. Down down down everyday, everyday.

repeat 1st verse and chorus
Until your last breath, until your last breath slips away
(that's what time is babe, that's what life's all about babe
you can't rule it babe, it's gotcha babe)
