You begin to condescend
But I ask you to what end
'Cos I'm foolish but I'm fine
I've seen you in the afternoon
Blowing smoke across the room
With words that undermine
The strangest thing about your voice
It blurs together in white noise
And I stare frozen
Still she cried out
But still the world pursued
And I need to speak my mind
The way I wanted to
So hurry up it's time,
Hurry up it's time
But my time has slid by
You were once the nightingale
Rich among the glitter of your jewels
They followed 'till they felt the sting
You lead them on a sultry string
And wrapped it round their minds
But stranger things have happened since
The path of broken promises
I've left behind
Still she cried out
But still the world pursued
And I need to speak my mind
The way I wanted to
So hurry up it's time,
Hurry up it's time
But my time has slid by
Well I guess you don't need a reason
Well I guess you know I'm over feeling
Oh That's why I'm leaving
Still she cried out
But still the world pursued
And I need to speak my mind
The way I wanted to
So hurry up it's time,
Hurry up it's time
Still she cried out
But still the world pursued
And I need to speak my mind
The way I wanted to
So hurry up it's time,
Hurry up it's time
But my time has slid by
My time has slid by
