Time Waits - The Twang

You sit there praying for hope

But no one came

And sat like dust on a shelf

A thought sits in your brain

You carry on till you crack

Knowing you can’t take it back

And there’s a million tales and stories

You lose for a single glory

His head starts to spin

His body fills with self doubt

The room laughs at him

When he looks round

Although he wants her

She don’t want him in that state

Although he needs time

Time just won’t wait

Then he sees her

Standing there with someone else

It could have been him

If he weren’t so wrapped up in himself

Although he wants her

She don’t want him in that state

Although he needs time

Time just won’t wait

Time just won’t wait

Time just won’t wait

Time just won’t wait

Inside he still feels like a child

He’s 10 years on still running wild

And the clock on the wall keeps ticking

Even when nothings clicking

He used to hold his head so high

Now he looks down as they pass him by

And he once had this great idea

Everything crystal clear

His head starts to spin

His body fills with self doubt

The room laughs at him

When he looks round

Although he wants her

She don’t want him in that state

Although he needs time

Time just won’t wait

Then he sees her

Standing there with someone else

It could have been him

If he weren’t so wrapped up in himself

Although he wants her

She don’t want him in that state

Although he needs time

Time just won’t wait

Time just won’t wait

Time just won’t wait

Time just won’t wait

They call him second rate

Well that ain’t the case

And this one’s for you now

This one’s for you now

They call him second rate

Well they took the bait

And this one’s for you now

This one’s for you now

This one’s for you…
