[Verse 1]
So this is permanence, love's shattered pride
What once was innocence, turned on its side
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move
Deep in the memory, of what once was love

[Verse 2]
Oh how I realised how I wanted time
Put into perspective, tried so hard to find
Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way
Moving on the main path, I watched it slip away

[Verse 3]
Excessive flash points, beyond all reach
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find
A valueless collection of hopes and desires

[Verse 4]
I never realised how I needed time
But if you were at the center, of another time
Just for one moment, thought I heard my name
Looked beyond beneath you, I wasn't squared away

[Verse 5]
Well now that I've realised how it's all gone wrong
Gotta find some therapy, this treatment takes too long
Deep in the heart of sympathy held sway
Gotta find my destiny, before it gets too late
