What Did I Do With My Time

What did I do with my time

What did I do with my time here

I constantly hoped for a revolution

Whatever happened to my limits

We only knew how to go back and forth without ever going up, up, up

When did I ever decide to

Fold myself into a big secret

What did I do with my time here

I don’t even know how to read your name

Where did you hide past and wishes

I wanted to dig them up for you

You claimed that the key was in my reach

But so well hidden

But I am not the searcher I once was

So you can keep it

What did I do with my time here

I constantly hoped for a revolution

Whatever happened to my limits

We only knew how to go back and forth without ever going up, up, up

Have you ever tried

To drown in fascination

Once you’ve learned to swim with your eyes open

Someone pulls the plug

And you’re left there dried out

On the bottom hand in hand with a stranger

But you work with what you’ve got

Assurance in the distance

But it’ll never be more than that

I can’t blame It on the blindness

For my eyes were open all the time

(No I can’t blame it on you)

(No I can’t blame it on you)

You claimed that the key was in my reach

But so well hidden

But I am not the searcher I once was

So you can keep it

What did I do with my time here

I certainly know how to waste it well

There is no justice in the outcome

But stories to tell my kids one day
