The Lift - Black Coffee Lyrics

Someone I know once said, You cant stop the second-hand from turning
Its always ticking, never sticking still

Someone I know told me, Dont let regret fill you up
Youve gotta take the best and leave the rest behind
Because its now or never all together, here


What do you think our dreams are telling us
I consider way too much
We should be laughing instead crying,
Living instead of dying


I dont wanna wake up, and see my lifes been washed away
Like a movie I once saw when I was young
Is this all we get when we add up twenty some-odd years of growing up
We go to college to make some dollars, yeah
To find the real world is just a figment in the end

What do you think our dreams are telling us
I consider way too much

the possibility, we may no longer be subject to adolescent responsibilities
when push comes to shove we all make mistakes
our ages go up and they raise the stakes
I got a five day block of a nine to five 401K job keeping me alive
Rising mortgage rates and credit bills
I take three vitamins and two sleeping pills a night
And I buy all this stuff to fill my apartment, but its never enough
Because it could never amount to whats called true love
You gotta find it now before it becomes unheard of
And I got two weeks off, and two least cars, and no backyard, and one garage
But none of that will matter to me anyway
If Im going to be sleeping diagonally
And I plan for retirement
Did I mention addiction to caffeine, I drink seven cups of coffee a day without cream

Chorus

Someone I know once said, You cant stop the second-hand from turning

Its always ticking, never sticking still
