Treadmill of Time
[Chorus 1]
I want to get off now
I'm trying to learn how
Why can't it just slow down?
Slow right down
Not sure of it all anymore
[Verse 1]
Tied to the treadmill of time
Climbing up an endless stair
Slide with no reason or rhyme
Headlong into who knows where?
There was once a time when everything was fine
And water towers seemed living entities
I believed in all kinds of absurdities
How strange
The thoughts of innocence
Times change
I've lost that hidden sensе
[Chorus 2]
I want to get off now
I'm trying to learn how
Why can't it just slow down?
Slow right down
Not sure of it all anymorе
[Verse 2]
Hands on the clock face turn 'round
Getting older, moving fast
Sands in the hourglass fall down
Letting go of times past
There was once a dream I had in which it seemed
A rose bush grew in the house where I used to live
I suppose I know those are days I can't relive
How true
The thoughts I've pushed aside
Wish I knew they could simply be denied
[Bridge]
I've been waiting for, I've been waiting for
The key to the door, the key to the door
And freedom galore, and freedom galore
I seem to want more, I seem to want more
I've been waiting for, I've been waiting for
The key to the door, the key to the door
And freedom galore, and freedom galore
I seem to want more, I seem to want more
[Chorus 3]
I want to get off now
I'm trying to learn how
Why can't it just slow down?
I want to get off now
I'm trying to learn how
Why can't it just slow down?
I want to get off now
I'm trying to learn how
Why can't it just slow down?
Slow right down
Not sure of it all anymore
Not sure of it all anymore
