Time Is Short Lyrics

Everyone knows your name, girl
They swarm around you when you take a step outside
But I know what you're hiding
Beneath the teeth of that sarcastic smile

And if you fall too far you'll break
And you're bound to make a mistake

Sitting here in the dark
Talking to a computer screen
I'd love to make my way outside
But everyone out there is just so mean

And if you fall too far you'll break
And you're bound to make a mistake

So glad
Time is short
So sad you're gonna start a war

Too bad
It's out of my hands
I left all of my money by the voting stand

Everybody is dying
To break out of their cage
But me, I'm content to just lie here
And stay well into my old age

Cuz if I fall too far I'll break
And I'm bound to make a mistake
