Time Will Tell

time will tell me nothing
'cause only time will lie about what's coming
and what's behind the shoes that we've been running
three at a time and time, again, is cunning
and takes us for a ride

ride on while you can still feel (it)
and don't come till you've learned what's real (the meaning)
and don't you fear what's inbetween
(time will tell me nothing)
the roads are steep but time will lead the way
(the roads are clear but time is in the way)

time to tell me what you plan on doing for me
I'm sure that you'll be plenty ready to fool me
and time will tell me what its plans are for me
(time has taught me to be wary of what's before me)
I'm sure it will be sitting right before me
(I'm sure that I'll be getting all that comes to me)

time is but a means to slow you down
(ride on while you can still feel [it] and)
(time to tell me what you plan on doing for me)
time is what it means to be let down
(don't come till you've learned [the meaning] what's real and)
('cause only time will lie about what's coming)
(I'm sure that you'll be plenty ready to fool me)
time does what it needs to hold you down
(don't you fear what's inbetween)
(and what's behind the shoes that we've been running)
(time will tell me nothing)
(time will tell me what its plans are for me)
time is just a need to be soldiered out
(the roads are steep but time will lead the way)
(three at a time and time, again, is cunning)
(I'm sure it will be sitting right before me)

time will tell me nothing
'cause only time will die out as it's running
and leave behind a trail of my shortcomings
that paint themselves as everyone else's
(time is a'wasting)
doing what's best for no one else
(all my time)
could be so cunning as all the rest of time
(is a'wasting all my time)

time is a'wasting
all my time
(is a'wasting all my time)
and time is a'wasting
all my time
(is a'wasting all my time)
