C#mIt starts with One thing I don't know why

BIt doesn't even matter how hard you try

AKeep that in mind I designed this rhyme

BTo explain in due time

C#mAll I know Time is a valuable thing

BWatch it fly by as the pendulum swings

AWatch it count down to the end of the day

BThe clock ticks life away

C#mIt's so unreal Didn't look out below

BWatch the time go right out the window

ATrying to hold on but didn't even know

BWasted it all just to

C#mWatch you go I kept everything inside

BAnd even though I tried it all fell apart

AWhat it meant to me will eventually

BBe a memory of a time when

C#m E B AI tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

C#m E B AI had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

C#mOne thing I don't know why

BIt doesn't even matter how hard you try

AKeep that in mind I designed this rhyme

BTo remind myself how

C#mI tried so hard In spite of the way you were mocking me

BActing like I was part of your property

ARemembering all the times you've fought with me

B C#mI'm surprised it got so (far)

C#mThings aren't the way they were before

BYou wouldn't even recognize me anymore

ANot that you knew me back then

BBut it all comes back to me

C#m(In the end)

You kept everything inside

BAnd even though I tried it all fell apart

AWhat it meant to me will eventually

BBe a memory of a time when

C#m E B AI tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

C#m E B AI had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

C#m B A BI put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go

C#m B A BAnd for all this There's only one thing you should know

C#m B A BI put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go

C#m B A BAnd for all this There's only one thing you should know

C#m E B AI tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

C#m E B AI had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter
