lyrics

so many years in my life have passed
six years gone that I thought would last
amazing how an evening can change everything

the dreams of yesterday will fade
the future that we thought we'd made
the plans that were consistently laid upon broken ground

and tomorrow is a day away
and I can't seem to speak
all the words I wish would come out

they sleep so deep beneath
all the broken dreams
and the promises that I could never keep
just a guarantee
that the love I found
was so much more that me
and I dream
and I dream

so I left her in that manuscript
that she has yet to write
boxes of possessions packed
well I raise my glass and say goodnight
now it's back to the war
this trite battle for a life
"one moment at a time" they say
one moment at a time

well the seconds pass via the second hand,
the pass me downs of the ever-damned,
and the faucet leaks so the blind can understand
that life don't wait
no, life don't wait
life don't wait for any man
