[Em] [B] [Em]
[F]
[C]
[Am] [Em] Time, he's waiting in the wings
He speaks of [C#m] [F] senseless things
His script [B] is [C] you and me, [Am] boy
[E] Time, he flexes like [Em] a whore
Falls wanking to [F] the floor
His trick is [C] you and me, boy
[Am] [C#m] Time, [Gm] boots and [Dm] red wine
[C] [E] Demanding Philly [F] dolls
The other [D] friends of mine
Take your time
[C]
The [B] sniper in [Am] the brain
[C] Regurgitating [F]
drain
[D] [G] Incestuous and vain
And then you are the [C]
last mate
[B] All [Am]
along the wall, just [G] as [C] 925
And [F] I think they'll [D] catch you, they [G] lie
Should be on [C]
by, [B]
[Am] [C] on [F] by, by, [D]

You are not a victim
You just [A] scream with [F] boredom
You [Dm] are not evicting [C] time
[Em]
[E] [Em]
[F] [A#]
[C] [Am]
[C#m] [A] Childs, have your [Dm] looking on
[C] Your [E] reason's [F] catacomb
Cause you left your code [D] behind
Take your [C] time
[G] Breaking up [Am] is hard
[C] But keeping dark [F] is hateful
[F#m] I had so [G] many dreams
I had so many [C] breakthroughs
But you, [B] my love, [Am] were kind
[C] But love has left [F] you dreamless
[F#m] You thought your dreams [G] was closed
Your path was [C] real and dreamless
Perhaps [Em] you're [Am] smiling now
[C] Smiling through [F] this darkness
[F#] But all I have [G] to give
Is gifts for [C] dreaming
[G] We
[Am] [C] should be
[F] [D]
[G] [C] on by now
[G]
[Am] We should be on [F] by now
