lyrics

Circumstances won’t let you circumvent
What a beautiful little mess you’re in
The stillest frames could still communicate
To a world that’s just too afraid to speak

Don’t be so hard on the ones you love
We wait so long before our time is up

Just keep working on your brilliant exposé
Eventually you might have something to say
Like a character from some nursery rhyme
In a future where you’re way past your prime

Don’t be so hard on the ones you love
We wait so long before our time is up

I’m going nowhere with no direction
Vanished in thin air, out of the question

Waiting for that special time of year
When you’re close and I just lose all fear
The hills and valleys are all safe and sound
Even though they’re all just hollowed out

Don’t be so hard on the ones you love
We wait so long before our time is up
