Oh the light is slowly fading.
Tomorrow bleeds into today.
Rabbits playing in the road.
My muscles slowly tighten again.

If now’s the only time I have,
why do I run away and hide?
Waiting for the other shoe to drop,
but it still takes me by surprise.

A telephone is ringing,
somewhere inside my mind.
The TV news fires bullets at me,
and I fly away.

If now’s the only time I have,
why do I run away and hide?
Waiting for the other shoe to drop,
but it still takes me by surprise.

Is this the last day of the week?
I don’t know when to say goodbye.
Photos fading in an album,
well I don’t feel like they are mine.

If now’s the only time I have,
why do I run away and hide?
Waiting for the other shoe to drop,
but it still takes me by surprise.
