Time is Ticking So Slow
Sitting in a place where there's always something to do
while two shorties with their glasses on wanna get on top o' the roof
Some guys talking about the road to paradise and arguing about the ways to get there
While I'm just sitting here looking for something to do
But I don't really have a clue
I feel the walls are closing in, put myself in stories I'm not a part in
I can't play and I can't sing. I wish I'd soon get back to the place where I been
'Cause time is ticking so slow. Time is ticking so slow. Time is ticking so slow"¦time
It's been happening too often these days...there's still nothing to do in spite of so many ways
Everyone around me having the same feeling...
even the atmosphere isn't there for anything to take me away to where my heart stays
I feel the walls are closing in, put myself in stories I'm not a part in
I can't play and I can't sing. I wish I'd soon get back to the place where I been
'Cause time is ticking so slow. Time is ticking so slow. Time is ticking so slow"¦time
It's like the ice is so slowly melting when there's nothing else to drink
Like the fire so dimly flamed when there's no other way to be warm
The sky is so clear and I'm just waiting here for the storm
"¦waiting here for the storm
I feel the walls are closing in, put myself in stories I'm not a part in
I can't play and I can't sing. I wish I'd soon get back to the place where I been
'Cause time is ticking so slow. Time is ticking so slow. Time is ticking so slow"¦
Time is ticking away so, so, so slow
Time is ticking so slow
