Story behind the song
what i thought when i was writing my will
Lyrics
time ticks away
fading from my youth
lines find their way
to keep me from the truth
crumbs fall astray
but find their way around
time ticks away
but the clock was never wound
its time to drink that beer
i begin to get in gear
lift my glass as if to cheer
then they said happy new year
now i steer what the fuck did i hear
am i paranoias peer looking in the mirror
nobodys here.. is that what i still fear?
i cant lie
i cant stand
so i guess ill just sit
thinking as i type one hundred words a minute
doing that doing this as if im infinite
no need for words as if im infinite
no need for words im always giving it
no need for words im always giving it
fade from my youth (oh)
hey now whats the deal
i cant let go tripping on the peel
what does it take to get a little feel (feel)
here we kneel on achilles heel
lie cheat and steal no time to heal
double edged sword and its made of steel
this isnt fair to my reflection i stare
cant ask for my share im never givin it
this is a nightmare im always livin it
im always livin it
time ticks away
fading from my youth
lines find their way
to keep me from the truth
now i steer what the fuck did i hear
am i paranoias peer looking in the mirror
nobodys here.. is that what i still fear?
is that ...
is the end really near?
living my life away in the shade
i know thats not how im portrayed
im afraid
no need for words i am always givin it
this is a nightmare and im livin it
