You didn't even scratch the surface You wasted time and scratched your head And now you get a little nervous You count five, or count ten Or count twenty But it's over then How long, how long How long can one life last How long, how long How long until we're past How long, how long How long and time goes by How long, how long, how long The clock ticks on You spent your lifetime on a trap door
You didn't miss to risk it all And as you wonder what you're here for You count six, or count twelve Or count twenty-four So pinch yourself How long, how long How long can one life last How long, how long How long until we're past How long, how long How long and time goes by How long, how long, how long The clock ticks on
