Crying For Time

you told me to wait 

so i'll wait for you 

you told me the light 

would keep shining through 

you said it was easy 

and that life could never change 

but look, we're right back here at the start 

you taught me to talk 

like a tv show 

you taught me to walk 

through the christmas snow 
 [bad word] with a fever 

that can black out most of my mind 

but look, the chestnut's jumped from the fire 

don't waste your time on me 

cos i'm not worth anything 

the taste of lies as we preach 

leaves me sick and reeling 

all i want is my life back again 

you turn like a fool 

i can hear you now 

you're rolling the ride 

you're a crazy cow 

there's nothing but history 

and you keep on crying for time 

but watch, as i tick tock out of your life
