If you hide; the kid inside 
 The more you live; the more he dies 
 That's the cost of livin 
 Always taking, never giving 
    Give up things, that won't come back 
 'Coz what you lost was all you had.. 
 I look around to see 
 Is there anyone like me?   
 I'll close my eyes and try to understand 
 All there's left of my rock's a grain of sand..   
 Time swallows sand 
 And year swallows year 
 Time swallows time 
 And all the time it disappears 
 Time swallows time   
 Float around, stay low and wait 
 I close my mouth around the bait 
 Pull it when you're able 
 I'm a goldfish on a table   
 Believing things that isn't true 
 There's a kid inside of you 
 And you don't hear him crying 
 But slowly he's dying...   
 I'll close my eyes and try to understand 
 All there's left of my rock's a grain of sand   
 Time swallows time 
 And year swallows year 
 Time swallows time 
 And all the time it disappears 
 Time swallows time 
 And year swallows year 
 - I guess it does; it's this time a year   
 All the time just disappears 
 I guess it does; it's this time a year 
 Time swallows time 
 And down the throat next year slips 
 Time swallow time 
 And year licks it's lips
