Four Letter Word - Unconditional lyrics

Now I see it, slip slipping away Sometimes I notice, just how I have aged Drawing conclusions, in the lines on my face Run out of fingers trying to count the days You know what really bothers me the most I never could allow anything too close Keep my distance, far behind the lines Everything's taken, taken away... In time, I will lose everything I care about In time, either you or me will have to learn to live without In time, the coins will overflow the wishingwell In time, maybe this will all cease to be so unconditional Unconditional, unconditional Unconditional Not so long ago it all seemed viable But now my theory's so unreliable There's never any doubt, you can fulfill your dreams When indestructible, teenage machines I'm still angry, but now I realise I see the cycle slowly turning in my eyes It's irretrievable, so easily won or lost Like terrafirma, lying dormant in permafrost In time, I will lose everything I care about In time, either you or me will have to learn to live without In time, the coins will overflow the wishingwell In time, maybe this will all cease to be so unconditional Unconditional, unconditional Unconditional You can only hold on for a short time 'Til your fingers will lessen their grip on the twine Tired muscles find it hard to cope Before you know, you're at the end of the rope There's never gonna be near enough time You're always gonna be cut down in your prime I can't afford to let let myself forget The wheel's in motion, the hourgla** is set In time, I will lose everything I care about In time, either you or me will have to learn to live without In time, the coins will overflow the wishingwell In time, maybe this will all cease to be so unconditional Unconditional, unconditional Unconditional, unconditional
