Our Time Is Short

We'll make it down slowly Discover our hearts are dumb There's nothing that holy In loving like drunk kids love And I've forgotten Where I was I see you in spotlights In visions I'm saving now Before we are parted By rivers of words somehow I'm still besotted But sobered up So let's drink Drink the best wine now While we're strong and we are proud Until lightning strikes us down And you'll eat Eat 'til you are full Cutting straight through all the bull I will accept you warts and all It's weird and unnerving Forsaking my old life now 'Coz this is a burden I can't seem to do without When time is rotten We soldier on I wanna be nearer I wanna be close behind A little bit clearer A little bit hard to find And I've forgotten who I was So let's drink Drink the best wine now While we're strong and we are proud Until lightning strikes us down And you'll speak Speak 'til you are whole What is clear is what is gold You're only human after all Our time is short Our time is short Our time is short Our time is short
