Time Lies (Ludus)

[Verse 1]

Nothing exists outside of right now

The apocalypse unfolds and the sky comes down

You and I laughing at an inside joke

Never mind what the future holds

Held hostage by gravity

All that heaviness can wait, let's get back on our feet

You and I, neither one of us can dance

That's alright, here, just take my hand

[Chorus]

Time lies, forever is on our side

Tonight, we get to decide

What forever feels like

Forever looks like you and I

[Verse 2]

Let's forget about all the countdowns

A city made of cards, looming storm clouds

You and I, let's play another game

Shuffle again 'til our luck is changed

Change is simply a matter of mind

The forecast says rain but there will be clear skies

For you and I (You and I, you and I)

Cross my heart and hope

[Chorus]

Time lies, forever is on our side

Tonight, we get to decide

What forever feels like

Time lies, forever is on our side

Tonight, we get to decide

What forever feels like

Forever looks like you and I

[Outro]

Maybe I'm being over-naïve

The law of physics tend to lean toward adversity

You and I, laughing at another joke

Get to decide what our future holds
