Lyrics

Time

[Verse 1]

Had visions of a rainy dance, somewhere in France

You wait 'til you see me phasing by in real-time

It's three in the morning

I'm sick of being so boring

Oh, where did it all go wrong?

[Chorus]

I'm trippin', skinned my knee

Where did the time go?

Where did the time go?

I'm slippin' on a leaf

(Where'd it all go wrong?)

Where did the time go?

Where did the time go?

It's left the building

Where did the time go?

(And is it set in stone?)

Where did thе time go?

(Where'd it all go wrong?)

Whеre did the time go?

Where did the time go?

It's left the building

[Verse 2]

A graceful skid into a ditch of empty space

I read me a line of another life that isn't mine

Now it's six in the morning

Immune to being so boring

Where did it all go wrong?

[Chorus]

I'm trippin', skinned my knee

Where did the time go?

Where did the time go?

I'm slippin' on a leaf

(Where'd it all go wrong?)

Where did the time go?

Where did the time go?

It's left the building

Where did the time go?

(And is it set in stone?)

Where did the time go?

(Where'd it all go wrong?)

Where did the time go?

Where did the time go?

It's left the building

[Bridge]

Please don't let me waste away

Into the mountainside

Rays of color stripped to grey

Fade with the depths of time

[Chorus, Outro]

I'm trippin', skinned my knee

Where did the time go?

Where did the time go?

I'm slippin' on a leaf

(Where'd it all go wrong?)

Where did the time go?

Where did the time go?

It's left the building

Where did the time go?

(And is it set in stone?)

Where did the time go?

(Where'd it all go wrong?)

Where did the time go?

I don't need to know

It's left the building
