A Matter of Time

Lyrics

And after rearranging the furniture you slept alone You awoke to find the war was finally done You rubbed your eyes and squinted at the sun Which was brighter and hotter and better and lit up The earth like a birthday cake You were amazed you were still living To celebrate this new beginning Where the grass is a little greener And the Earth is a little bigger And the trees are a little taller Due to air that's a little cleaner And suddenly Voices rang out from the clouds Bursting out in song Speakers pumping loud Keep on crying just to stop the water rising To your brain composed of dirt You keep on pissing to keep on drinking You keep on eating to keep on shitting Time will wear you down You clapped your hands and sighed You were amazed that you survived And the air that you were breathing Gave you a supernatural feeling And the sound of your heart beating in time With the rhythm of your breathing Mixed with the speed of the Earth spinning Was precisely the same speed as earthquakes Building beneath your feet Awaking strangers that you meet To see the collision of a hurricane And a suicidal plane, oh God It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time Until, suddenly A voice will ring out from the clouds Bursting out in song Speakers pumping loud Keep on crying just to stop the water rising To your brain composed of dirt And keep on pissing to keep on drinking You keep on eating to keep on shitting Time will wear you down Keep on crying just to stop the water rising (Keep on pissing to keep on drinking) To your brain composed of dirt (To keep on eating to keep on shitting) Keep on pissing to keep on drinking (Keep on crying) To keep on eating to keep on shitting (Just to stop the water rising) Time will wear you down It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time
