Veranda Bandits - Spending Time Lyrics

Time is a construct that I can't
Seem to wrap my mind around
When it's your time
Will you even know
And if you remember
It's too late
I feel like I've been here before
Spending our days like
We can buy more
The only thing that we can't afford
Time waits for no one
If this time should be my last
Carry our charms out of the past
Trading things away makes me my best
We're collecting more
And slowly becoming less
I feel like I've been here before
Spending our days like
We can buy more
The only thing that we can't afford
Time waits for no one
Covet the weight I've had on my chest
Builds me from the things
I've never addressed
Tell me that you love me
And pull me below
Tell me that my name will never be known
The time that's passed
Is owned by death
This is our biggest mistake
To think our future awaits
I swear I won't put up a fight
I've been down here
For my whole life
Seems this one could
Take me awhile
How long without you
And your ancient smile
