Time Will Tell Songtext
von FreddeGredde

Why does it feel like there′s always something amiss?
Life plays tricks, how did everything end up like this?
Why am I here if I don't belong?
Tell me what is this joy that you have?
Why can′t I know the same happiness others do?
But I'll keep trying to feel what you feel
Tell me what's this beauty you see?
I want to find out, will everything fall into place?
Time, will you tell?
There′s battle raging inside, though hidden from view
Must this burden be shared or should I hide what′s true?
Misery, you're no stranger to me
So just try to shake me, break me, make me, ruin me
This damnation has me shaken Hope and passion all forsaken
Self-assurance is eroding
My endurance quickly fading away
Trying to regain perspective now
I can′t fall into desperation
I have to wait, be patient
They must know that it's not transient
Sufficient time ′till separation
The flame goes out and memory is lost
Time is always on my side
The hours meld together
All these days are like each other
But wait not long till liberation


Flame goes out
Memory is lost
Time is always on my side
Running through the forest to kill time
There's no wrong or right direction
Only fog and misty vision
There′s no need for bold ambition
Having no feeling nor affection
Flame goes out
Memory is lost
Time is always on my side

Then it came to me and I thought
Life could be a charm
Love seemed so sweet and mesmerizing
Didn't believe it could harm
I'll take a chance with escapism
And time is always on my side

Emptied soul and still fatalistic
Would life still enchant?
I took my chance with escapism
And time is always on my side

Existing, not living
Then who cares if I am cavalier?
All the signs so telling
They are only pointing to what′s near
Now I am on the brink of liberation

Looking out the window
Now the leaves have fallen
What′s my fate?
Feel like I'm in limbo
Would this be my calling?
No escape
Now I am on the brink of liberation

Falling down in pieces, no way out
It′s the end, I'm leaving without doubt
Left them all my prized possessions
Bid them farewell, sealed confessions
Heart congesting, non-withstanding
But in the darkness, a ray of hope shining through

Tell me what′s this beauty I see?
Did I do it right?
Does life agree that maybe I could give?
And that's a reason good enough to live

I′ll keep questions open
But now you're far too young
The life's mysteries
The things you′ll be today
The strangest of the seems
Or must be made to stay
And undercover of a child′s grin
Oh
