Measured In Time

Measured In Time

Jughead´s Revenge
(album: Elimination)

You always wanted
To be left alone
When they said to you
Those things won´t matter anymore
Will it stay with you
And when the morning comes
Would you say that I lied
Or could you want to die
Over something that was equally
Measured in time
Not something that I wished for you
All those dreams you know that won´t come true
They will all die alone for you
The kind of thing you gave up to see
I tore a page from the list of lies in the past
Something that you always wanted to be
You weren´t cut out for the things if you took
You would last
Leave me alone
When I say to you
That I´m not the one
The impervious son
Set me on fire with the honest hand
Could you only want yourself
When I´m in command
To make your life what you want to be
You´ve got to smash all the things that get in your path
And less forget for who it should be
Put your hand in the box and you´ll see
Don´t hold that mirror up to me
I´ve had enough from what I can see
I´d try to get up but I don´t know how
I´m too locked into it now
And if the morning comes
When my ticket arrives
Could you say that I´ve lied
Over something that was equally
Measured in time
