Father time, I'm running late

I'm winding down, I'm growing tired

Seconds drift into the night

The clock just ticks till my time expires

You were once my friend

Now I know I can't tie your hands



The days I saved I couldn't spend

They fell like sand through the hourglass

No time to lose, no time to choose



Time taking time, it's taken mine

Scenes of my life seem so unkind

Time chasing time, creeps up behind

I can't run forever, and time waits for no one

Not for me



An enemy I can't defend

My final days. A deadly end.

Life's just a speck in space

Dreams of an eternal resting place



I can't get any younger

Time has brutal hunger



Time taking time, it's taken mine

Scenes of my life seem so unkind

Time chasing time, creeps up behind

I can't run forever, and time waits for no one

Not for me
