I told her time floats by in the blink of an eye
You take one step back and there goes five
Hiding from the bombs back home, would you give me a chance?
Because I've lost too much, I don't know where to stand

I told her time floats by in the blink of an eye
You take one step back and there goes five
Do you believe what you say when you say that you care?
Do you believe what you say?
'Liеve, 'lieve what you say?

Okay, I droppеd it out of my palm
Let's shoot some fuckin' heroin
And tell them we're in love
And every time that I'm out of time
I put all that weight on you
You can't help me now but I'm too far down
What else was I to do?

Don't look down, I'm tryin', no fightin'
Not right now, but I've been thinkin' 'bout how
Life goes on, she says from the high rise
I don't wanna fight for the wrong side

Time floats by in the blink of an eye
You take one step back and there goes five
Hiding from the bombs back home, would you give me a chance?
Because I've lost too much, I don't know where to stand
I told her time floats by in the blink of an eye
You take one step back and there goes five
Do you believe what you say when you say that you care?
Do you believe what you say?
'Lieve, 'lieve what you say?

She asked: Why'd you lie? A thousand times
It's so short and soon life'll pass me by
She fills a purse with cigs and all her petty crimes
You know it's all just fine, I'm tryna shut my eyes

Life goes on, she says from the highrise
I won't bet my life on the wrong side
Tears fall down and light up the night sky
I can't see you cry from the front lines

Time floats by in the blink of an eye
You take one step back and there goes five
And from the bottles back home, would you give me a chance?
Because I've lost too much, I don't know where to stand
I told her time floats by in the blink of an eye
You take one step back and there goes five
Do you believe what you say when you say that you care?
Do you believe what you say?
'Lieve, 'lieve what you say?
