作曲 : Adrian Borland I tried to stretch the world to fit The cut of my demands No fear in my convictions No sword slipped in my hands Then the road got steeper I couldn't see beyond the bend All that wasted promise It becomes years in the end Now every flash of fiery youth It burns me with its savage truth Somehow Slowly time slips away Slowly time slips away It slips away somehow What I don't remember I can not regret So if this is my confession Then the worst I will admit All the way from wisdom To the floor of some dark bar I have gone the distance And it‘s really not that far I drank the gift of my brand new friends But it all felt like some grand pretend Somehow Moment gets poured away Somehow I had all I could wish for Lied down in front of me Like a fool I wanted more I was blind to the beauty Now I should be further down the line Instead of going off the rails Laying in some lowly arms Instead of on these nails Now my name it seems to be scrawled across Every hour of sleep I lost Somehow It's crazy what we throw away It's crazy what we throw away But we lose our way somehow
