lyrics

All my time just wants to desert me
Bullied by the boredom
Without a minute spare
Dear diary, you don't deserve me
Of course I don't hate your guts
If I did I wouldn't care
You'd better know me a little better
People don't really realise
When they're not all there
We're way too young to be tired
Why would things be easy
Why would things be fair

I'll tell you all of my dreams
And you can laugh if you like
Or tell me all of your dreams
And shake them out of the pipe
You play the music by day
And work the cinema nights
To keep a roof on your head
To keep control of your life
Making a meal of the things that you find
To find a way to feel and a reason to write a line
That time to watch from the side
That place to make up your mind
I can't remember what I forget to do

Suddenly time is eager to meet me
Shows up every evening
With nothing but a big blank face
And nothing to teach me
Follows me round the town
Till it turns into a chase
O cruel oasis you tease me!
So difficult and yet too easy
You only smile to deceive me
And I'm watching you

Welcome to Paradise
Well no, the grass isn't real
But it looks nice
It has a similar feel
Push your face into the flowers
Talk about them for hours and hours
Until all your desires and your wildest fantasies
All gather round you now
You don't understand the scene
Why are you struggling to breathe?
Why are you anxious to leave?
What's missing now?
What could you possibly still need?
Time?
Have you lost your mind?
Look over your shoulder
That's right
Hours to your heart's complete delight
At last
Now stop walking so fast

About the time that you get the things you want
Your appetite for the things you want thins out
