It's a matter of time

Till I fall

In the middle of the town

There stands a tall brick wall

In the middle of a dream

Where time plays in between

The sound lies rings funny against the truth



When I was young, outspoken

(Mama said it'll work out right)

Then sixteen brought a moody star

(Mama said it'll work out right)

Mamasaid it'll work out right

Boulevards and green leaves billowing



It's a matter of time

Till I fall

In the middle of a town

There stands a tall brick wall

In the middle of a dream

Where time stands in between

The sound of lies rings funny

Against the truth
