Samuel, Time Hates Us
Did you know time can slip by
when we're not having fun?
Samuel, it hasn't been fun
These days that we've spent,
it's felt like hours
And remember when you came
to the door with flowers?
But time, Samuel-
it's never odd or even
Samuel, time hates us
We don't even have a moment
that's just ours
Yet, chance made us friends
Sitting in Niagara, staring at the lights
Honestly, you and me, we could be free
And yet we're imprisoned
Steadily being caged in by time
We were from the beginning,
we were from the start
Time hates us, dislikes us,
loathes us, despises us
We're the eyes of it's storm
And yet I can tell in your eyes that you're happy
That even with a car running on empty
and not living a life we had envisioned,
We've made a world that stretches far
