You can hurt my feelings
You can damage my pride
You can take all my earth things
Yeah and I wouldn't mind
You can steal all my money
Leave me deaf, dumb and blind
But would you be so kind
As to not waste my time?
With every second that you spent
Simply remembering the stupid things
You said you could have a built a rocket ship
I know you're riddled with bitterness
And your pain is legitimate
Doesn't change that it's ignorant
To be chained and imprisoned
You say it's just one minute here, a millisecond there
Fast-forward five years and it's all
Who-knows-where
Spent on who-knows-what for
Who-knows-why you gave your time
To someone who's not there
You can hurt my feelings
You can damage my pride
You can take all my earth things
Yeah and I wouldn't mind
You can steal all my money
Leave me deaf, dumb and blind
But would you be so kind
As to not waste my time?
Feel a bit mischievous
You could take it all away
Although that's devious
Go ahead and make my day
It ain't the easiest
To live my life this way
There ain't an ounce of trust
All the games we play
Another day, another plan, another text
Another half-baked excuse
To push this weekend to the next
She left me hanging so long
I still have sores on my neck
Next to her a gallow's looking
Like a pretty safe bet
So like our plans, I plan on
Slipping through the cracks
I won't be telling her why
No, I won't be messaging back
No, because an explanation shows
An ounce of dedication no
Communication yeah
It's hypocritical she hates this
Ain't it?
But if I choose to throw a fit then
I'm no better 'cause getting angry
Wastes even more of my time and effort
Tossed my weekends in the gutter
And that's on her but whether or not
I choose to be free's on me
And she could choose to apologize
If she doesn't then she's just another waste of time
I want to believe that her heart was kind
But you'll never catch me harboring a parasite
You can hurt my feelings
You can damage my pride
You can take all my earth things
Yeah and I wouldn't mind
You can steal all my money
Leave me deaf, dumb and blind
But would you be so kind
As to not waste my time?
Tick tock, tick tock
Seconds, minutes, hours
They never stop
And as the clock ticks by
You wonder why
Your life drip drips
Down the drain like a drop
Tick tock, tick tock
Seconds, minutes, hours
They never stop
And as the clock ticks by
You wonder why
Your life drip drips
Down the drain like a drop
Tick tock, tick tock
Seconds, minutes, hours
They never stop
And as the clock ticks by
You wonder why
Your life drip drips
Down the drain like a drop
Tick tock, tick tock
Seconds, minutes, hours
They never stop
And as the clock ticks by
You wonder why
Your life drip drips
Down the drain like a drop
Tick tock, tick tock
