[Verse 1]
I've seen you eat away
Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine
I've seen you chisel away
Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine
[Chorus]
And you wonder why I leave so soon
How I get so high, sink to the bottom of your room
[Verse 2]
I've seen you fritter away
Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine
I've seen you whittle away
Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the spine
[Chorus]
And you wonder why I leave so soon
How I get so high, sink to the bottom of your room
[Verse 3]
I wonder why I stay
Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine
I've seen you eaten away
Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine
I wonder what to do
Slow as a glacier takes to move on through the world
[Chorus]
And you wonder why I leave so soon
How I get so high, sink to the bottom of your room
[Instrumental Verse]
[Chorus]
And you wonder why I leave so soon
How I get so high, sink to the bottom of your room
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
I've seen you chisel away
Hammer in place always in time
I've seen you chisel away
Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine
[Chorus]
And you wonder why I leave so soon
How I get so high, sink to the bottom of your room
[Outro]
